~Handmade Wedding gift~

Last Saturday, I went to my ex-schoolmates wedding.. Buat dekat Dewan Sri Melati, Putrajaya. Betul2 depan Istana Kehakiman. The bride was in the same batch as me while the groom is a year senior. The wedding then turned into a mini reunion for us Jiwarians :) Met a teacher there too :) The ever lovely Cikgu Jimah :) Since I didn't have time (and transport) to buy a gift for the couple, I decided to give them my handmade gift. A pot of flowers!

My wedding gift to them

Nylon stocking flowers arrangement

It took me about 4 hours to complete it. The white pot is from IKEA and the nylon stockings are whatever left lying around in my stock.

I hope their love will bloom always, like the flowers! :)

~Hand Bouquet Guide~

Bride to be usually have a  huge dillema when choosing the hand bouquet.. But how do you choose one to suit you best?Those yang amik package dgn pelamin oklah..Tapi if yang nak buat sendiri or tempah mesti pening..Ikut hati memangla nak semua..Rambang mata!! :P

Fresh flowers look beautiful without needing much effort in arranging but it can be a bit expensive and doesn’t last. And if tak pandai gubah, boleh jadi disaster! :P While artificial flowers can be breathtaking if you choose wisely, but most of the time they look just plain. The good thing is they last...

Either you opt for fresh flowers or artificial..It doesn’t matter..Both can look amazing provided you choose the right design, and the right colour. Let's ponder upon the type of arrangement..Zaaas~

Posy bouquet

Suitable for bride with any body shape and height..Recommended for petite bride. Any flowers will do. Roses, lilies, peonies are best. You can mix few types of flowers or just go for one type. Additional accessories such as butterfly, dragonfly, feathers and pearls can also be added to make your bouquet unique. Artificial flowers seswai buat style ni..

Sheath bouquet (arm bouquet)

Simple and elegant. Suitable for everyone. Exceptionally beautiful with tulip, calla lily and lavender (Long slender stem flowers).Orchid pun cantik tau buat this style. Use pretty ribbons to complement the bouquet. I love this style....simple but sweet... :) 

Shower bouquet (cascade/trailing bouquet)

Traditional teardrop shape, consisting of a posy with a trail of flowers and foliage (Dedaun byk2) Best suits tall bride. However petite bride can choose this design with shorter trails..Atas paras lutut..Yang tinggi melayup bolehla wat sampai betis/lantai..You don’t want to be stepping on your own wedding flowers aren’t you?  Any flowers will do. Personally I think tropical flowers will look best.

Creative bouquet

Creative bouquet can be anything! Any shape and using any additional accessories. They can be crescent shape, heart shape or even wreaths. Suitable for daring bride who wants to be one of a kind :)

Hmmm...Definitely rambang mata kan...

DIY-Submerged Underwater Flower Centerpieces

Looking for a beautiful, modern contemporary centerpiece that is cheap and can be done yourself? Then these submerged flower centerpieces  are for you! Sangat cantik tau

They look so breathtaking without much effort.  Plus you don’t need a lot of flowers. Tulips and orchids are the best..but so can many other flowers (and branches and grasses!). Orchids paling sesuai ..easily available in Malaysia :)

You will need-

#Flowers/Grasses/Branches to be submerged -->Fresh or artificial flowers. Fresh flowers are best put together  the night before to ensure they stay fresh for the big day. Artificial flower can be used also BUT water works as a natural magnifier so if the flowers have frays, loose threads and flaws they will be very obvious once submerged in water. These flowers need to be test underwater first before putting them into the centerpiece as  the colors may bleed. 

Example of flowers to be used: Tulips, Orchids, Calla Lillies, Ferns, Hydrangeas, Oriental Lillies, Cherry blossom branches, roses.. etc. Avoid flowers with thin petals or flowers with a lot of pollen..

#Pretty vase (Clear tall rectangular or cylindrical ones and fish bowls are usually used)
#Stainless steel washers and/or fishing sinkers (Ladung in Malay) to keep the flower submerged (if needed)
#Decorative rocks, sands, gravel, stones seashells (to hide the wire/fishing line/weights and as extra decorations)
#Floral tape (To tie  multiple stems)
#Floral/fishing wire or Fishing line (Tali Tangsi in Malay) to attach the flowers/grasses/branches to the weights
#Distilled water (Distilled water will stop the bubbles from forming on the flowers.However, plain water still can be used  gune je Air Suling battery kereta :)
#Optional: Floating candles, Submersible LED lights, coaster or ribbons

Steps :

Plan how your flowers/branches/greenery would look like once in the vase and submerged. This is easy if you are using only a single stem of orchids or  a single tulip but if you’re using multiple flowers tie them together at first. Not too high so it won’t be visible underwater.
Attach the stem to the sinkers (Ladung) using the wire.Some flowers/branches/grasses) may not need to be weighted at all.. (So skip steps straight to adding water )
Gently slide your flowers/grasses/branches into the vase, letting the weight rest at the bottom.
Next, hide the  washer/sinker with your decorative stones, river rocks, gems or sand..Use your creativity! 
Now, fill it up with distilled water.You may choose to submerge the flower completely or just half way.

It’s done! 

For additional decorations, you may float a candle on top. Or tie pretty ribbons at the bottom of the vase.

Do try it. Suitable for wedding or event centrepieces. Bride to be, this is your solution for elegant wedding without  
skyrocket budget :)

*Pictures are googled. Will post my version of submerged flowers later :)
