You are a genius! I wanted to make corsages to match the floweres I made for my bouquet and this is exactly what I was going for! If you have a tutorial that would be fabulous!!
Thank you very much. I didn't use a tutorial, just sat down and put items together that I thought looked good together. The only items you will need are brooches (you can purchase these on etsy or ebay), OR buy a pair of antique earrings, remove their back and use them instead, glue and wristlets. There is a cheap consignment store here called Mighty Dollar, so I purchased the Cameo earrings, removed the back and placed them in the center of an ivory flower. I bought the flowers in bulk off of etsy, and then took a lighter and heated the underneath to give it a wilted affect :) You can also buy crstal beads/pearls at your local fabric stores.. (Joanne Fabrics, Hobby Lobby, etc). It's amazing all of the things you can create on your own to stick with your budget. If you start a project and need help, please don't hesitate to ask! This is my first one, so wasn't sure about it, so thank you for your comment.
