Completed Burlap Rose bouquets

It's RAINING! Praying that we'll get many more storms over the next couple of months.

It was good to hear from old and new friends, thanks for taking the time to welcome me back.

I was asked about the Bridal bouquets I was working on for my Son's wedding. I did finish them but didn't get great pictures of them. Here is what I have:

My now Daughter-in-law also asked me to make the boutonnieres. I wanted to work with the burlap rose theme but didn't like the look of the burlap rose buds so here is what I came up with:
 
The Grooms:

After all my complaining I was pleased with the way everything turned out. The Bride (my new DIL) was delighted with them which is all that counts.

Weddings are so much fun, I enjoyed reliving that day while putting this post together.
 
Next time I'll share the progress I've made on my rug and some little wool projects I've completed.

    1. Hi Quinn. Wish it was as easy as asking. Lots of prayers going up for rain. I'm so thankful He had mercy on us and answered our prayers.
