Sola Flower Help!

Allie, on September 28, 2018 at 10:05 AM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 4
So I think I’m going to try to make my own bouquets out of sola wood flowers. There are plenty of tutorials on how to do it, but I have no idea what flowers to use! Does anyone have any experience or useful tips on which flowers they bought for their own bouquets?

    I did my flowers with sola flowers. I picked flowers that I liked based on what was on the website and also bought variety packs when they were on sale to use as filler, and I think mine turned out really pretty. I bought raw flowers and did my own dying by Using acrylic paint from Hobby lobby and diluting it with hot water, just dip the flower and get it covered and then let it dry. We used wire stems from the floral department and hot glue to stand them. Pro tip cut the stems in half because you don’t need them as long as you think you do and you’ll get a lot more bang for your buck with the shorter stem’s and it’s easier to do it before hand then it is to be cutting them off after they’re already assembled.
    Here’s a couple pics of mine, let me know if you have questions.

    These look amazing. Would you mind sharing which company you used to order the sola flowers and greenery?

    Hi Allie! I've heard great things about Sola flowers, a lot of users have used them for their bouquets! As for the types of flowers to pick, I would look around different websites and get a feel for what you like! You could also look around Pinterest for inspiration! I found two past discussions where users discuss Sola flowers, I'l link them below for you!
