From beads to flowers...

Why have I been missing???

'Coz I've been  super busy tying corsages..2 weekends in a row.

This weekend, I was commissioned to do corsages & hand bouquets for a wedding. The bride had a red-gold theme...hence the red roses!

Wrist corsages for the sisters of the bride..all 10 of 'em!!

Below is one of the six mini hand bouquets for the flower-girls!!

And this is the brides-maid hand bouquet

After 60 pin corsages, 30 wrist corsages, 7 hand bouquets later....I've decided that I miss beading!!! hehe..

However, I understand that wrist/pin corsages cost a bomb at local florists, so when a friend approaches me to tie  corsage/bouquet-flowers for their wedding, I really don't have the heart to turn them away. And anyway, I really do like 'em flowers...aren't they sweet?

A Weekend Of Love & Flowers

I love weddings.

It warms my heart to see 2 people in love who decides to tie-the-knot & be 'one' (Sounds corny, huh?)

For us, family; it's more of a time to visit & to catch up with everyone; something that most of us rarely have time for these days.


I was lucky to be able to attend my cousin's wedding. My schedule of late has been so crazy that for a while, it was really touch & go.

But God was good,not only was I in town, I even had enough time to organise the flowers for the wedding dinner; pin & wrist corsages as well as the table deco.

The flowers had to travel from 200 odd miles + survive 2 full days before the event (Thank God for my aunt who nearly always have double of everything; she had a spare fridge for me to store the flowers...hehe).

Despite the little crisis management issues, glitches here & there; the wedding reception was a success with plenty of music+dancing to entertain us, Non-stop pouring of wine, loads of laughter & basically a fun evening where everyone truly enjoyed themselves.

The bride's maid's wrist corsage landed into the hands of our little niece, who held onto it for the rest of the night.

She liked it so much that she brought it home & kept it in the fridge - and her exact words the next day when I saw her for lunch were "So that it would live longer"....well, she is 6 and a half!!!
:) Isn't she sweet?

Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Lee! May the both of you have a wonderful married life ahead.
