For this week’s Flower Chic I’m keeping it really romantic and classic with a soft cream bouquet.
I used soft, locally grown, garden roses from Florabundance mixed with queen anne’s lace, tulips and eucalyptus.
I wrapped the bouquet in a strip of torn linen and then layered this beautiful lace trim I bought at Michael Levine’s.
To make this bouquet you will need:
-2 bunches of garden roses
-1 bunch of tulips
-1 bunch queen anne’s lace
-1 bunch eucalyptus
Tools:
-Floral shearers
-Green floral tape
-torn linen (or other nuetral colored fabric, muslin would work too)
-lace trim
-pearl headed pins
As will all bouquets, its extremely helpful to have a mirror handy when you’re arranging your bouquet. It will allow you to see all angles while you’re working and make sure you get a nice round shape. Looking for my flower arranging ideas? And to see all Flower Chic posts click right here.

This bouquet is stunning. I always love garden roses but especially love the lace ribbon as well!
