the bachelorette bouquet

my friends call me craftastic. i think it's fun word. and i try to act on it as often as possible. i have 2 bachelorette parties to go to this weekend and i have been working on perfecting "the bachelorette bouquet." this is bouquet number 4 & 5 and i am really pleased with how they turned out. the center is 5 or 6 pairs of underwear made to look like flowers. i especially like this gift for a few of reasons:
  1. it's not raunchy...
  2. you can tailor the underwear to suit the person you are giving it to, a really conservative person can get really conservative under garments and you won't embarrass them
  3. it plays along with the wedding theme! bachelorettes often have veils when they go out - so why not a bouquet too?



    i am thinking about marketing and selling these soon. what do you think? i am trying to come up with a price. any ideas? i would certainly need some better photos...

hey! i think you gave me one of these :) awww....

It's hard to know how to price it without knowing the cost of your materials and how long it takes to put it together... is it like a $15 whole-sale value? or more?

i love this idea! the only thing i would say is to pull it together more, maybe stick with the same color/color family when making the bouquet? this is coming from an only semi-crafty person though :)

and price would depend on cost of the underwear i guess. if you're shopping at victoria's secret, that's $25 just for the undies!

I'd buy one of these
bad boys for 35 smack-a-roos.
Howeverrr...I'd try
creating it first, because
it looks like a fun time!

Simply LOVE the idea.
