Winter Flowers for a Wedding: How to Create a Magical Atmosphere with Floral Arrangements and Bouquets
3D FLOWER PHOTO ART TUTORIAL – THE PERFECT WAY TO PRETTY UP A PICTURE!
You guys, I’ve been dying to do a DIY like this for ages and I’m so excited that we finally got around to making 3D flower art! I’ve seen similar things over on Pinterest with thread or paper flowers but I wanted to really kick this project up a notch and use some beautiful fresh flowers! I love the idea of using photos from an engagement shoot, decorating it with fresh flowers and displaying your art at your wedding! It would look perfect by the escort cards or drinks station!
YOU WILL NEED:
A large photo (we printed ours on A3 Card but the thicker the card the better) // Fresh flowers // A glue gun //
STEP 1:
Cut the stems off the flowers as close to the head as you can, you want the flowers to be able to sit flat on your photograph.
STEP 2:
Have a play around with how you’d like them to be arraigned and get a rough idea of which flowers you would like where.
STEP 3:
Using your glue gun start to glue the back of your flowers then place them wherever you feel like they fit! Don’t be afraid to take petals off the flowers and leaves and place those on too!
STEP 4:
Gradually build up your flowers until you’re happy with the arrangement, the bigger the better in our eyes!
And that’s it, you’re done! Obviously these flowers will only last a limited amount of time because they’re not in water but that’s just one of it’s charms I think!
If you’re looking for places to grab yourself some beautiful flowers to create this then we recommend Flowers For Everyone, they’re a lovely family owned business who have so many colourful and gorgeous flowers I can barely take it! (I kinda want them all.)
Now all that’s left to do now is display your art with or without a frame somewhere pretty and make sure you share your creations with us using #BESPOKEBRIDEDIY xx

What a super cute idea! I love the pictures on your blog too! So bright and colorful!
Thank you 🙂
Hi there, this is super nice but how you keep the flowers? After some days they get bad.
Thanks in advance for ur feedback
Hi Vania
Unfortunately this is only a temporary DIY as you are quite correct the flowers will go over. An alternative would be to use fake flowers for a more permanent solution.
Best wishes
