I then painted it with some acrylic paint from Blick (just their in-house brand), and I got the leaves from Hobby Lobby. It really wasn't that hard to make and didn't cost much, it was just a little time consuming.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04629790725857874356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-966342740098467422.post-64405467645824689142016-02-01T11:44:00.362-06:002016-02-01T11:44:00.362-06:00Thanks :) Did you use floral wire?

All I did was just button the blouse all the way up so that it had that high-collared-Thrandy-feel.
