Martha Stewart Weddings, Summer 2003
White carnations are transformed into an amazingly stylish bouquet thanks to ingenious details like handmade white ribbon flowers and a pleated stem wrap adorned with black silk blooms.
Ribbon Flower How-To
For each flower, cut a 9 1/4-inch length of 1-inch-wide satin ribbon.
1. Measure 1/2 inch from one end; mark lightly in pencil. From there, mark 1 1/2-inch intervals five times (for five petals).
2. With matching thread, hand-stitch semicircles from mark to mark.
3. Pull thread to gather; knot.
4. Sew ribbon ends together, right sides facing, to make flower; snip off extra ribbon. For stem, stitch flower to looped and twisted end of white floral wire.
Hi, I really love this bouquet, can you please help me with the tutorial to see how I can make it??? Thank you!
Hello,
Can someone from the team at Martha Stweart send me a video of how to re create this beautiful bouquet or if there is a video available already, please advise. Not quite sure I understand the how-to process for the satin portion. I am more visual. Thank you very much.
