vintage brooch bouquet...

Were you a June bride?
I was...almost 26 years ago!
Jim if you are reading this you have 19 shopping days left!

While browsing Etsy last night I searched vintage wedding and look what I found...

Stunning isn't it!
These beautiful creations are from the Etsy shop The Ritzy Rose.
The bouquets are made from vintage brooches and other pieces of jewelry that either you send them or that they have.
Miranda Lambert recently got married and had one made from brooches given to her at her shower from her guests...

Did you know the fabulous Junk Gypsy girls styled their wedding?

Do you like feathers ~ they can add them...

Or you can design your own and add some silk flowers...

Now I am not renewing my vows (although I would love to so I could hold one of these beauties) and my daughter is not getting married anytime soon but I have had a wedding idea folder for her for years.
This idea is going on the top of the pile!

I am joining Debra for Vintage Inspiration Friday.
Thanks for hosting Debra!

Thank you all for stopping by and have a wonderful weekend!
Don't forget to enter my giveaway!

    These are beautiful...they seem to popping up everywhere online lately - one gal made hers from family treasures found in an old trunk in an attic! Enjoy the weekend

    What a fun post! This would be a nice decoration for a bridal shower, and a nice gift for the bride, I think.

    Love those bouquets, I've seen one made with just muslin rosettes and loved it, probably I will get married in August (well, I've been married for 16 years), but not through the church, we had different religions, but hubby is more convinced of mine now, so, I may hear ring the bells in August, will let you know about the bouquet! Thanks for sharing!
    Have a lovely weekend!

    OMGoodness, I looove that idea for bridal flowers! I make jewelry out of vintage pieces, so this just sang out to me! When my son and his bride got married two summers ago, I did their flowers and I added lots of pearls and crystal beads, but these are to die for gorgeous!!! Thanks so much for visiting my blog and your sweet comment! Debbie @ Cottage Hann~Me~Downs
