Not only do I participate in book murder, but flower murder as well!
I've slowly been buying discounted roses for my wedding and drying them out in my studio. It seems like a lot of flowers, until you use 3 dozen making your wedding bouquet. The craft was pretty simple. Hot glue the roses on the Styrofoam ball, then embellish! I found out the hard way to add the handle (rose stems) FIRST before starting on with the roses :D The little pearls are actually sewing pins, which stay in the Styrofoam nicely!
It takes a couple months for the flowers to thoroughly dry out, so this is a project I've been eager to get my hands on! I dry whatever flowers I receive, so the first bouquet my fiance gave me is in it, as well as a boutonniere he wore at a friend's wedding. Plant matter beware! The Captain is crafty :3
