Faux Florals for Your Wedding is the first craft book on the latest bridal trend: accessories and decorations with gorgeous silk flowers. More and more couples are choosing faux florals because they're easier to craft than fresh, can be made ahead, offer more choices of flowers and colors, can be safely transported far away, won't wilt, are non-allergenic, and later are keepsakes or home decorations. Above all, faux florals have become amazingly realistic. Faux Florals for Your Wedding is the first book about turning those fabulous florals and wedding craft supplies into romantic, personalized wedding designs. The thirty projects, plus abundant variations in colors and styles, include bouquets, boutonnieres, corsages, headpieces, ceremony accents, centerpieces, toasting glasses, and favors. Step-by-step, photographed instructions ensure professional results even for beginners. This complete guide includes the basics of wedding flowers and faux florals as well as a fill-in organizer. With Faux Florals for Your Wedding, the flowers will be as beautiful, original, and lasting as their love. Fifty projects for bouquets, bridal-party accessories, flowers for the ceremony and reception. Easy projects, no experience needed. All other wedding floral books are about fresh flowers.
