Reddit mentions of Darice 35017 Dry Foam Bouquet Holder with Handle, Large, White/Green

I loved making my fabric flower bouquets! I don't know what research you've already done but assuming you want to make variety of flower types, I followed a few tutorials found online and did a lot of improvising.

Here's mine: http://imgur.com/a/Rblkg

Here are a few questions as a starting point:
Do you have a sewing machine or serger? (not necessary but it helped me make a different type of flower that I loved)
Are you making matching bouquets for your bridesmaid?
Do you have the time to make these? (it took me over 60 hours to make mine plus 3 bridesmaids - this included the time it took to master the learning curve)

You'll need:


Fabric, lots of fabric. Mostly if you are make more that just your own. Otherwise a quarter yard of a few different fabrics should be enough for a smaller bouquet like mine. I was looking for a soft low key style and chose colors accordingly. The bright blue ones are to make the bouquet pop a little more and are close to matching the bridesmaids' dresses.

I used
chiffon
tulle
crepe (but really I just scoured the remnants section of Joanns for something that would work and had the right color)
colored chiffon
lace fabric (or regular lace if you prefer)

Fabric scissors (makes the cutting process much easier) and regular scissors (never use fabric scissors on anything but fabric)

Beads, buttons, gems etc if you plan to add a little adornment to each flower (I didn't for the rolled rose looking ones but all others had something)

Bouquet holder. I used one like this

Floral wire

Floral tape (though I found this ended up not being necessary although if you decide to make boutonniere they would look much better)

Felt (I used it for the backing on my flowers but it's likely you wouldn't need it if you put the flower together including the floral wire rather than after like I did)

Here's how I made a few of the different flower types:


The dusty pink lace rose: I followed this tutorial except that I used cut strips of lace fabric instead of ribbon and I used my serger to gather the fabric. If you want a less uniformed look as I did, fold up the fabric/ribbon and cut a wave pattern on one side. When you roll it up if looks more varied.

The pale blue and pink flowers: I did something similar to what is found here. Here's an easy way to cut many out at once. I created a base by adding one or two cut outs on the bottom and sewing the petals onto that. Another difference was that I used a chiffon(white) and tulle(colored - pink or blue depending on which flower i was making) combo I cut out twice as many tulle as chiffon and when I layered the fabric I layered them: tulle, chiffon, tulle, then I folded then like in step 3. These are the ones that I added the pearl beads to. turned out nicely. I also tried using just circles rather than flower cutouts and it works just not as well on a larger scale. I made 1inch flowers for a hair comb I made my flower girl and those came out great!

*The purple and bright blue flowers: I was inspired by this tutorial. I decided to try for a more daisy look and while I gather the fabric I simply flattened the look and added the button on the purple flowers and beads on the blue ones.

The bases I simply hot-glued a small felt circle to the back of the flower. I then made a flat surface from the floral wire and hot glued a second piece of felt on top. I used light pink felt on the pink and purple flowers and light blue felt on the the blue flowers. Honestly, this part I completely improvised so I'm not sure how helpful it'll be.

Here are some other ideas that I ended up not using:
