My bride, Kristen contacted me to see if I could create her wedding bouquet. She lives in Canada, but was very excited that I would be able to create her bouquet out of clay. Initially she had a ton of flowers she liked, but we narrowed it down to 4 flowers - chocolate cosmos, Ivory Prince hellebores, gardenias and tuberose. It's very striking. When I think of chocolate cosmos I think of brown, but in actuality they are more of a purplish burgundy color with hits of orange on the fringe.
Kristen is supposed to send me the green ribbon she would like to be on the stems, but I wanted to send her photos of the completed bouquet today so I could move forward with the rest of my orders. The next sets of bouquets will be exciting to share so I better get back to it. 3 more bouquet orders to finish as well as another wedding day details order. A full week of teaching a student from out-of-state to do as well this week.
Congratulations Kristen and best wishes to you and your fiance!
