Creating a Sweetheart Rose Basket with Baby's Breath

This makes an excellent flower girl basket. Once you have your basket you will first need to add greenery. Put a small amount of floral adhesive around the edge of the basket and add small sprigs of plumose all around the outer edge. Next, Add baby's breath by cutting it into small pieces from the stems and place individual stems with adhesive around the basket, randomly mixing with the plumose. Next, add cut sweetheart rose buds from the stem. Put adhesive on the base of each rose and place them evenly around the basket, mixing them with the baby's breath and plumose. Depending on the size of your basket, you may want to use extra roses for fullness and color. Then, make twist ties. To make them, wrap floral wire with white floral tape. To wrap the wire, start at one end, hold the end of the tape with one hand and smooth down with the other hand. Cover the entire wire evenly. Make two twist ties. Lastly, attach bows. Make two double loop bows. Secure a bow to either side of the basket with twist ties. Attach the bows at the base of each handle by wrapping the twist tie through the bow, around the handle and back to the front. Twist the wire under the bow so it will be secure and hidden. Fill the basket with rose petals or potpourri.

Making a Flower Girl Halo with Baby's Breath

Begin by twisting two chenille stems together to form the halo. Measure the flower girl's head and form the halo to that measurement. Be careful not to make the halo too large so it won't slide down the flower girl's forehead. Next, you'll need to wrap short lengths of (about 12 inches) white floral tape around the halo. Remember to hold the halo with one hand and pull the tape with the other. Continue to wrap the tape around the halo until it's completely covered. Cut small stems of baby's breath and dip each individual stem into the tacky floral adhesive you have put into a small dish. Press each stem onto the halo and hold for a moment. Continue adding flowers around the chenille halo form until you achieve the desired fullness. Be sure to use a very small amount of glue on each stem for best results. Next, cut eight sweetheart rose buds from the stems, leaving only the flower head. Dip individual rose buds in the adhesive and glue them to the chenille halo form among the baby's breath. Place the roses evenly around the halo. Now, attach the bow to the halo using a twisty tie. Twist the wire under the bow and cut the ends with wire cutters. Cut the streamers into desired length. Finally, store and maintain. The rose halo basket can be made up to three days in advance of the wedding if kept refrigerated. Attach the bows on the day of the wedding if the halo basket will be stored in the refrigerator. You can make this wedding project one day in advance of the wedding if its kept in a cool, dry place away from sunlight, light a garage or basement. Remember, the larger basket, the more flower petals you will need to be sure never to run out before reaching the altar. Also, be sure to check with your ceremony site to ask its policy on tossing flower petals on the floor.
