A spot of flower arranging
Well, my wedding is fast coming up and since my best man will be the only guest on the groom's side, the rush has been on to help him complete his kilted outfit.
It's slowly coming together now that I've explained why he can't wear a sports coat as-is.
I had a buttonhole that I wore to my sister's wedding which was nice, but a bit too big and gaudy for my tastes. So I sat down with some Macdonald Modern ribbon, some small, fake heather, ferns and some feathers I found outside and done some flower arranging while I watched the rugby. (I am so manly I can do both at the same time!)
So, this is the buttonhole I made for my best man, Seamus.
And this is the one I made for myself.
I'm really happy with how they turned out. It'll be a nice keepsake after the wedding and it was about 1/16th of the cost to buy the supplies and make them.
(All the local florists and wedding stores charge a fortune.)
