Title: Cheesy and Tacky
Product review: Most of the designs depicted in this book are truly passé and tacky. There are multiple points wherein the author suggests using silk flowers. Do they even make those anymore?!?! The headpiece she shows looks like something that came out of the children's costume drawer. There is literally a square of craft tulle attached to the back! I could make something more elegant and believable without directions.The author relies heavily on plastic and foam implements to construct her bouquets, and her shapes and flower choices are positively outdated. If you want your wedding to look like a low-budget 1960s throwback, go ahead and use this book.On a positive note, there are good instructions for making boutonnieres, although I'd advise leaving out the old-fashioned baby's breath sprigs.Another plus - you will have a good laugh at the bridal gowns the models are wearing. Wedding day at the FLDS compound!
