DIY Holiday Bulb Bouquet

Though this bouquet was originally intended to be carried down the aisle as a wedding bouquet, it would still make a lovely, sparkly centerpiece for a holiday table and you can reuse it year after year.

This is a great way to use up that stash of seasonal ornaments for the years that you don't put up a Christmas tree. And if you have a box of hand-me-down ornaments from Grandma, you can create a sentimental bouquet with vintage bulbs, wrap it in newspaper (just like a real bouquet!) and display it in a vase.

Seriously, really pretty but what do you do for the bouquet toss!? :o)
Yes on the herb and home grown flower bouquets.
No on the button one..for me anyway. Looks like children craft project.

Ikea, and probably many other places, sell plastic ornaments in pretty colors. I think I would do this as a centerpiece, though.

I like this - might try it for a centerpiece.

Would be a great craft to do with kids after Christmas when all of the ornaments go on sale.

Pretty! (It is not required by law to toss a bouquet.)
