DIY Baby's Breath Bouquet

[@adriajanni5822]

Thank you. My daughter wants a babies breath bouquet but I didn't think it was enough. Your tutorial showed how beautiful they can be. Thanks again

[@LynseyHaddow]

Just wanted to say thanks for this video - I made these for my bridesmaids and they looked fab!

[@lucywarner2244]

Thank you so much, your tutorial is perfect, easy to follow and has given me the confidence that maybe we really can make the bouquets for my wedding. Thank you! Looking forward to giving them a practice :)

Very helpful I needed to visualize how much is a bunch of baby's breath !

[@maggiereyes63]

I’m trying to work with baby breath, flowers on a hurricane lamp. I put the wet foam accordingly and I basically had to use very short breaths. I found that it kept breaking. Is there anything I can do about the stem part?

[@Chris-nl2yu]

I love all your video. All your instructions are very detail which makes it easy to follow.

[@veronicacampbell9731]

Very good tutoring.easy. to understand keep up the good work

[@bethaniepopple9632]

Really helpful video thank you. How early could you make these before a wedding? Will they stay fresh?

[@plantbasedgirl5217]

Extremely helpful video ! I know most flowers should be ordered days before an event so they open up , is this the case for baby’s breath ? No right ?

[@BarbaraJSantaMaria]

In the U.K. we call big baby’s breath a different name, we call it Double time and the small one is the same as yours, million stars. In our local florist warehouse they sell it in branches of 15 or 25.

[@carlamiller6673]

So cute!! I wonder if you could make a heart shape bouquet out of babies breath?

[@thehotavocado]

I love baby's breath - and would like to use it like this one day. love it! Thank you

[@jacquelineshen3253]

So informative and helpful! I don't know anything about flowers, so this was just what I was looking for. Thank you :)

[@AngelshareeBFE]

@bootahjardin what are a few recommended reads you would give to someone wanting to know about flower care?

[@Bekindtopeople]

Wow.! I have never heard of a babes breath bridal bouquet! That's really cool!💐👍

[@qloflowerstudio4905]

Hi there, just want to drop a quick question. So when you put your baby breath bouquet to a deep water to hydrate the shortest stem, can I do it overnight and wrap the stem with ribbon in the morning? Will the stem get rotten quickly or get darker?

[@berlizbatista4776]

Hi I want to use these flowers for my wedding aisle and I don't know if 100 stems will work for a 50ft long aisle. What I want is to cover the sides of de aisle with a bunch of these in a circular shape. Also I want to order these from Costco. What do you think?

[@gerdahunter5217]

Could someone tell me what kind of strapping tape? Is it specifically floral or just regular strapping tape?

[@brinana1221]

So if you had to travel about an hour with the flowers what would be the best way to transfer them? Also about how long will the flowers last if you get them ahead of time? Thanks!

[@bootahjardinflorists890]

An hour is a pretty short period of time to transport flowers, so don't worry about too many transport issues. You'll want to do the basics- keep them in water if possible, but if all you're moving is baby's breath, it does well outside of water as long as you keep the air-conditioning on. And how long they last will depend on how fresh they are, how cool you can keep them, and what flowers you're buying. Baby's breath lasts easily a week when purchased fresh, but dahlias start wilting within 2 days, I find. Most flowers fall within this range, with the most DIY-friendly flowers (mums, roses, alstroemerias, etc) lasting longer than most. Hope that helps!

Hi - great video! I was wondering, if I wanted to incorporate a small number of extra flowers into a gypsophila bouquet, say roses, what would be the best way to do that? I.e. Could I put them in after creating the gypsophila bouquet, or should they be included as you go along? Thanks

[@bootahjardinflorists890]

+Hollie Hatherell Extra flowers would look lovely :) I would put them in as I go, as the baby's breath gets really tangled up. I imagine you might pull quite a few little baby's breath florets off otherwise. But adding them as you go is super easy.

[@hollietopliffe7368]

+Bootah Jardin Florists Great thanks!

[@nightynightasmr]

Could you please share a link to the strapping tape you used?

[@thehotavocado]

How long does it take for the stems to dry out if you had them in full mason jar of water all night long, and then the morning of you wanted to wrap it in ribbon ...?

[@bootahjardinflorists890]

+thehotavocado They'll stay fresh for most of the day if you're able to keep them hydrated overnight. Don't be nervous about using baby's breath- it's incredibly durable! It will dry out faster if it's a really, really hot day, but if it's that hot, nobody will want to be outside for long, anyways :) Other than that, it's a very good choice for summer weddings.

[@thehotavocado]

Bootah Jardin Florists Thank you so much for the reply. ... But, oops!, I should have been more clear - as I meant: How long does it take for the stems to be dry enough to wrap in ribbon. You had said it takes about a day for hydrangeas (that have had their petals immersed in water) to dry. I wonder if I could just pat-dry the water on the stems and wrap the bouquets with ribbon fairly quickly?

[@bootahjardinflorists890]

thehotavocado Ah, gotcha- I see what you meant. You can absolutely pat the stems dry. For the hydrangeas, they need to air dry as the petals are so soft, but all flower stems are super tough and can handle being dried off manually.

[@thehotavocado]

oh okay, great. Thank you!

[@agustasister5624]

I find on babys breath to trim just above a node helps them...just a thought

[@brendapalma914]

Can I add red roses to this

[@snowfert]

What would be the average cost for the size of the bouquet you made? I want these for my bridesmaids

[@bootahjardinflorists890]

It will depend on where you source your flowers from. Prices can vary quite a bit between suppliers. I would contact a few suppliers in your area and ask how many stems are in a bunch. From there, you should be able to work out an approximate cost.

[@amandamejia7737]

Where can I buy the flowers you sell?

[@NashaBelle78]
