Take some blooms from the roadsides that dot the outskirts of this little town
Pastels
and bolds alike.
Combine them with some cultivated flowers from the garden . . .
daylily, coreopsis, verbena, cosmos, hydrangea . . .
Throw in some zinnias, nasturtium,strawflowers and whatever
else you come upon in the garden.
Gather some rustic conainers, like canning jars, and some ties, grosgrain
ribbon, raffia and hemp.
With a twist and turn of the hand, voila, a farmer's market inspired
wedding bridal bouquet, simply tied with a green grosgrain ribbon.
The exuberance of the bouquet makes me smile.
A couple more twists and turns yields a centerpiece, as equally exuberant as the bouquet.
A slightly larger arrangement.
The bouquet and centerpieces, posing on the lawn, much like a bride and her wedding party.
And, indoors.
Some ideas I have for a rustic wedding I've agreed to do in a couple of weeks.
What do you think?
