Classic Wedding (Part 3: The Withered Roses)


(Please be warned that this entry is laden with pictures)

The withered roses - it started off as an experiment, as I love withered flowers so much. Then it became an obsession that was hard to let go, and the next thing I know, I had made aplenty of them. In variety of colours too. +__+


 So, we had the withered roses everywhere during the wedding hehe. I put them on some boxes for the bride’s family...

 

… and made some of the flowers as the corsages & buttonnaires…
 


.. . and some, on the wedding guestbook (one of those rare cases where I made one)





And plastered them on the wedding signage too…




The signage, bearing the groom and the bride’s names, was quilled in Jawi writing (Arabic alphabets being used to spell Malay words and pronounced as such). All quilling strips were hand-painted and hand-cut. Tedious job, but I’m loving the outcome so much I might do it again. ;-)
