I Make Clay Bouquets That Brides Can Keep Forever

ADVERTISEMENT

For over 5 years now, I create clay bouquets and accessories for brides (and not only brides) from all over the world.

I graduated as Russian-English interpreter in 2005 and worked for some years in a bank but that never fascinated me, I felt like I have something inside me that is not quite happy with what I’m doing. Since my childhood I liked to create beautiful things from beads, then I learned an art of creating silk flowers but my true passion is clay. Parallel with learning clay art, I graduated as a florist and now I’m involved in wedding decor business here in Russia. I create flower arrangements and bouquets from real flowers too. Now I’m happy that I’ve found my true self.

As to the material, polymer clay is very comfortable to work with, it is soft air dry clay. The flowers are very lightweight and not fragile, it’s not a problem to ship them everywhere!

These bouquets are a great alternative to real flowers because they won’t fade next day after the wedding and bride can keep the bouquet for many years to come!

My inspiration is nature, nature gives us perfect example of color mixes, shapes, sizes… We just should follow!

    Absolutely beautiful. Succulents are not usable as a cut flower, I love the wider range of plants this allows. Challenge: a cacti bouquet?

    Absolutely beautiful work don't get me wrong and I would absolutely love these Animes amazing bouquet saved in my home but aren't you supposed to toss the bouquet to the Bridesmaids so you can see who's the next one to get married? I wouldn't toss this I could probably kill someone

    Usually you get a smaller bouquet to toss. I had mine made of silk flowers so they could keep it.

    I love these. I'm using real flowers for my wedding, but if I am unable to preserve it successfully, this seems like a great substitution.

    These are absolutely gorgeous. I can't even imagine the time it takes to make one, giving the level of detail put into them. I really love the white peonies one. My question is, are they heavy? (sure, the flowers are lightweight, but how about the other details, such as the succulents). This is definitely a very interesting and unique idea. Just don't throw them at your bridesmaids. :)

    I love these. Even though I've already had my wedding, I could see these buying a bouquet for my house as decoration!

    I saw someone who replied who's name had the word Dark in it. Making one of these with a dark contrast would be really stunning!
