qiqi81 0 Report post Posted December 31, 2008 Hmm... I didn't do my hand bouquet myself.. afterall, it's a bit risky, what if it doesn't turn out perfect But calla lily hand tied bouquet should be easy enough to do, you can google search for methods to tie them, I think I've seen some websites that teach you step by step, but I didn't bookmark them, so can't share with youAs for wrist corsage, I used pink gerberas for my ji muis, just tie a elastic ribbon on it and let them tie the corsage to wherever they wanted, be it wrist, or arm or neck; a fren even put in in front of her chest, quite cute.The wedding night corsage I use pink rose for ladies and red rose for guys, with a little bit of 'cherry' or 'fu gui guo'. My aunt brought back corsage pins from the US, which was proven better than the usual pin that florists here provide. Again, you can try google for it, it's a very long needle like pin. My HB side bought their corsage, which costs RM4 each, to me it's totally not worth it lor, my roses were only RM0.50 each may i know is there anyone here got DIY experience on hand bouquet which maybe using white carrara Lily or white tulip which maybe using a ribbon to wrap it,like country style?

qiqi81 0 Report post Posted January 2, 2009 Thanks silence, maybe my pretty fren make the corsage prettier You plan to use pink gerbera for corsages that you pin on the chest is it? Hmm... you should probably try to do a few and see if it's nice first. I think gerbera is a bit big to be placed on guy's chest, so better experiment firstAs for handbouquet, are you having a long stem hand bouquet? I love those, but becos I wore an A line gown, it's much better to use round shape bouquet, so I stick with ivory rosesI did use long stem calla lily for my ROM, liked it a lotyour gerbera daisy wrist corsage is pretty. i will be using hot pink gerbera daisy as my flower theme also.
