Wedding Bouquet! Brooch Bouquet

brooch bouquetWedding Bouquet! Brooch Bouquet.  Behold the brooch bouquet. These vintage brooch bouquets are completely unique and no two are alike. They are an alternative to traditional wedding bouquets and they last forever. I also love that they make use of vintage brooches, lonely earrings, rings and pretty much anything else in the back of your jewelry drawer. 

I found a crafty brooch bouquet DIY from Emmaline bride and another brooch bouquet bride from Offbeat Bride. And if you prefer video, this three part how to make a brooch bouquet does a very good job. 

When my grandmothers passed away I claimed a whole box of junk jewelry I used to play with as a kid. How fun that these long forgotten pieces can be born again into a brooch bouquet. It is the perfect 'something old' for your day.  

And brooch bouquets can also be added to real flower bouquets as accents, or bouquet jewelry. 

And if you don't have a jewelry drawer full of hidden treasures, head to your local garage sale, flea market or thrift shop. You can of course also buy your brooch bouquet. They are a little on the pricey side but they make great keepsakes. 

Has anyone made their own brooch bouquet? I haven't tried yet... but I will and when i do I'll post an update.

I've started on my brooch bouquet as well. It's coming along nicely, but I still need more brooches. I'd love to see your final bouquet!
