Washington DC Wedding Blog ~ DIY Origami Bouquet Tutorial | Capitol Romance ~ A Creative DC Wedding Blog. I am SUPER excited for today’s DIY Wednesday tutorial feature coming to us from Lindsey of Elusive Photo Design. You all know how much I love the unique, different, and offbeat when it comes to weddings [especially in the Washington, DC area], so naturally, I jumped out of my seat when Lindsey sent me this: DIY Origami Paper Flower Bouquet From Lindsey: These kusudama origami bridal bouquets are remarkably simple to make, and can be made to your taste using a variety of different types, colors, patterns and sizes of paper. I recommend doing a few practice flowers with pre-cut, thin origami paper first. Once you’ve become more adept, try cutting squares out of magazines, vintage books — not antique (!!!) , just old — or using thicker scrapbook paper for a different “look.” As someone who didn’t use live flowers in my own wedding, I am always pumped when I find other ideas for non-floral bouquets.
I love how unique this bouquet is, and that it’s a DIY bouquet! You will need: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Autumn leaf bouquet | Design*Sponge - StumbleUpon. I don’t know what it’s like in your neighborhood, but when I step outside here in Oakland, I sense it right away: Fall is in the air! I’m lucky enough to have a few turning trees on my street, so I don’t miss out entirely on the brilliant autumn colors I remember from growing up in NH.
Speaking of brilliant autumn colors, I’m thrilled to share this stunning maple leaf rose bouquet DIY from a fellow Kate — clay, fiber and paper artist Kate Hust. Kate first learned how to make these a few years ago from a retired art teacher in her community, and now they’ve become an annual tradition when fall rolls around. Her instructor taught her to wrap the leaves really tight, so they looked like rose buds, but Kate has modified the technique a bit to suit her own tastes: She likes to find the really big leaves and make them with large open “petals.”
She’s clearly perfected the craft, and I’m so happy that she’s decided to pass the tradition on to us. Thanks for sharing, Kate! — Kate Materials 1. 2. Pictures_Prom-Updo-Hairstyles-326246t2.
