~Vintage Brooch Bouquet~

I am just loving these charming Flower Brooch Bouquets! They are so creative~ They would look great in weddings but.....I could see my little girl holding a pretty bouquet outside in the sunshine running around and playing while I snap photos of her! Um...now I am going to have to try finding some vintage brooches.....anyone have any suggestions other that Ebay?

  2. oooh! Those are amazing! I'm not
    creative at all & I'd never have
    thought to create something so
    pretty.

    You could post a want ad on your
    local Craigslist, or even take an ad
    in your newspaper. If you are friendly
    with the people at your thrift or antique stores, you could ask them to set brooches aside when they come in
    and give you a call. Tell them you need a lot of them.

  3. Bonjour Daisy,
    Oh I love these vintage brooch bouquets, and it would be great for the (slightly offbeat) bride. Paired with a vintage dress though it would be so lovely.
    Thanks for a pretty, inspiring post!

  4. These are very sweet!
    I remember seeing something similar awhile back from Jennifer Paganini... and wouldn't these sparklers look fabulous along WITH fresh flowers in a a bridal bouquet?! Thanks for sharing!

    I'd think you could find a load of these goodies if you keep an eye on garage sales in your local senior communities - those ladies have the best vintage bling!

  6. I know our Sunday Market (flea market?) have stalls selling old jewellery, bits and bobs etc. Perhaps one near you would sell them for modest price? They are beautiful, even sitting on a dresser in the bedroom they would be lovely eye candy . . .

  7. Those are fun! But I think I'd still rather have real flowers in a wedding. Maybe just one or two tucked in with real flowers would be pretty.

  21. VERY cool idea! I know whenever Iam out at antique stores iam always seeing old brooches and old jewelry...also I was thinking you could probably even use old earrings to make these too, just a thought. Try looking there..you are bound to find something! At least with my experience.:)

  30. Very cute brooch bouquets, until it's time for the bride to toss the bouquet! Then what? Sort of dangerous to toss. LOL.
