DIY Boutonnieres. Done. Made. BAM.
HolyfuckingshitIcan'tbelieveit. I was *this* close to scrapping the DIY bouts all together and just buying them already made from Etsy. But then I was like, NO. I said from the beginning that I was going to make these fuckers with my bare-ass hands, and this was no time to abandon the DIY ship.
As a result, I have spent the last two nights holed up in my apartment with a glue gun and a prayer, trying desperately to make these things look at the very least presentable. It took a lot of man hours, lots of trial and error, and way too many glue gun burns, but dammit, they are DONE. And they look beautiful. I am so fucking proud of myself I could shit tears. And! The bouquets match them perfectly too, so ACES. Materials: glue gun, fake roses, paint, velvet ribbon, dried flowers, lace, flower tape, and wire.
