Rustic Burlap and Lace Wedding Bouquets


I thought I would share some of the recent burlap and lace, custom wedding bouquets that have been shipped out this spring. 

The navy burlap bouquets have been one of the most requested colors in my etsy shop this year.

The veil on this head band is removable, so the bride can wear the birdcage veil during the wedding and be easily removed for the wedding reception.

This was something totally different for me! A local customer ask for a seashell bouquet for her upcoming beach wedding. They got engaged on the beach last summer and some of the shells were collected on their trip.

Dried babies breath and wheat were incorporated into this bouquet.

This was a new color combination with coral, oyster and Idaho potato! The order started out being turquoise, like the rhinestone cowgirl, but then the colors changed (prior to me starting on the order) to coordinate with the dress the groom's daughter and maid of honor found. I thought it was very sweet that the bride was willing to change colors and was including his daughter in the wedding planning process.

To make the groom's boutonniere stand out from the rest of the wedding party, two small roses and feathers were used in his bout.

Many times the mother's corsages are made in neutral colors. Often, the mother's and grandmother's either don't know what they are wearing till last minute or they pick out a dress that is a different color from the chosen wedding colors, so the neutral colors will match better for them.

For this wedding, they chose to use cream and turquoise pin on corsages.
This corsage was for a Woodland Creatures baby shower, that included duck feathers.

New Burlap and Lace Corsages / Boot Cuff / Sashes and Photo Albums

I've had these brainstorms on my mind for a while, yet it seems as if I couldn't find time to make them happen. I didn't work on any custom orders on Sunday and late that evening, I locked myself up in my workroom, aka "The Burlap Factory" as my husband calls it, to create some new goodies. I wound up not going to sleep till 4 am Monday! 

Yesterday, I photographed the new burlap and lace photo albums, and these flower pins. 

I was originally thinking about Mother's Day corsages or brooch pins for Mothers of the Bride and Groom to wear, but then realized these items are so versatile and can be used as bridal sashes, boot cuffs or bracelets, for wedding or baby showers, or just used to dress up your favorite outfit. 
 This piece has the softest blush pink lace mixed with white burlap. I found this lace at the garage sale last week and I am in LOVE with it! Seriously, vintage romance. Dress up your favorite denim jacket or boots with this piece.
Burlap and Lace Corsage
 This lace has a pale blue flower on it and forms a bow among the flowers and pearls on this corsage.Most of these items have a ribbon loop on the back and come with a corsage pin for attaching or have an optional satin ribbon sash that can be ran through the loop and tied for a sash or boot cuff.

I had created similar hair combs and recently had a bride ask to make a corsage like the hair piece. I love it when customers can see things in different ways and I was in turn inspired to create a new style of products for you.
Something Blue
 Mom would wear this corsage  multiple times - not just for Mother's Day or on her daughter or son's wedding day. Ivory and white lace, burlap, pearls and rhinestone are included with this piece.
Mother's Day Corsage
 This next piece is one of my favorites and I didn't know when to stop! I kept adding more lace and more pearls and then a little more burlap, finally topped off with rhinestones and the softest blush ribbon roses. Of course, then I had fun with my photo shoot. I'm so glad I bought the dress form and now I'm wondering what took me so long to finally get her. First option is the bridal sash...
 Or the corsage / brooch / flower pin option...
Mother's Day - Mother of Bride and Groom Flowers - Wedding Shower
 Or how about a fun boot cuff / bracelet?

 Need Something Blue for your wedding day? This piece has just what you need for your rustic wedding!

I also had a recent customer ask about photo albums and thus started a brainstorm of new ideas and led me to create the following two photo books. These are perfect for wedding shower gifts to display the couples photo story in at their wedding or really, just for any rustic photo loving self!
 Both the inside and out are covered in burlap and accented with lace, doilies, twine and an old skeleton style key.
 This album has more a neutral color scheme with the natural burlap and twine along with ivory lace and doily. So print all those pictures that are wanting to escape your phone and computer and preserve the memories in a pretty album that you will want to share with all your friends and family.
 Stop by my shop to grab these pretty pieces. Custom orders are ALWAYS welcome and I would love to create pieces in your colors or help bring your vision to life.

In the Rear View Mirror

Wow! Looking in the rear view mirror, February was a very busy month! Now this picture was actually taken in December when we did not have ice and my truck was acting crazy, but February did have snow and ice. February started out with my 4 year shop anniversary and ended with lots of burlap and lace wedding bouquets shipped out to brides across the world! 


There was rustic red, white, and navy blue bouquets,

and boutonnieres.

and boutonnieres for the men in the wedding party.

I've made three of these burlap wreaths this month and delivered them all locally. Two of them were placed on an easel and delivered to the funeral home, with the families having a wreath to take home after the service.

I also delivered this set of Mason Jar Lights to a bride to be, to use as decorations for her wedding next week.

A rustic red and shades of brown comprised these bouquets. This wedding is going to have a Crawfish Boil theme!

these bridesmaid bouquets. The bridesmaids are wearing teal and the bride wanted to make sure her bouquets didn't clash with the dresses and would stand out.

This color scheme was also used on the mother's wrist corsages. many times, the mother of the bride and groom don't pick out there dress till a week or so before the wedding, so the neutral colors are less likely to clash with her dress.

The navy bouquet is en route to Italy now.

Jade and Coral is always a pretty, springy combo!

And then I got my dress form! To say that I love it, is an understatement. I'm so excited about the photo opportunities with the form and the vintage lace wedding dress. Delaney ordered more pieces to match her previous order, including a bridesmaid bouquet, 3 boutonnieres and a corsage in turquoise and yellow.
Lavender and purple has became popular this month and March will include several bouquets in the color scheme. These purple bouquets are on an International flight for Petra's Canadian wedding later this year.

Last, but not least, the ever popular turquoise bouquet. Isn't my girl pretty sitting there in the glamper? :)

I've probably missed a few pictures...
 I'm so thankful for everyone who has ordered from me and keeping me busy! I appreciate each and everyone's order, large or small. I send my best wishes out to everyone as they are preparing for the wedding day or to the one's who are mourning the loss of a loved one, I send my sympathies. 

I look forward to helping future bride's prepare for one of the most special days of their lives. If there is any way I can help you, please let me know, You can contact me through email or on etsy and we can discuss your ideas and needs.
