2008 Wedding Trends

January 11th, 2008

It looks like waist-lines are back in this year for wedding dresses.

I say about time!

I am glad to see a move away from the wedding dresses that give no real shape.

The trend in 2008 is for dresses with soft, full, graceful lines that flatter waist and bust lines.

January 2nd, 2008

Don’t you get tired of the same old valentines gifts every year?

It seems most people think that Valentines presents have to be either flowers, chocolates, or jewellry.

Well, I’ve added a page to the Candy Bouquets part of the site, which will hopefully rectify this!

October 18th, 2006

One thing that is quite easy to make for a wedding (and for other events as well), is a corsage.

How to make a candy bouquet

October 17th, 2006

When I first started this website, my main aim was to show how to make silk bridal bouquets.

But I’ve started branching out a little.

Why?

Because I like making all sorts of bouquets. I find it interesting to use my creativity and come up with new ways of expressing myself.

One type of bouquet I make quite a bit (mainly because of how popular they are with the rest of my family), are Candy Bouquets

There are already some articles on my site about candy bouquets, including How to make a candy bouquet

I’ve added another article though… This time it shows how to make a candy bouquet without using any silk flowers…

How to make a wedding bouquet…

September 30th, 2006

I’ve just added a new article to the website, How to make a wedding bouquet

Now, obviously it’s a bit hard to show in an article exactly how to make a full wedding bouquet- it’s quite complex, and is really best understood by watching (Which is the reason for my DVD)

Still, it DOES give a basic understanding of how to make a wedding bouquet, and hopefully it will help people interested in making their own bridal bouquet…
