Here's the full view of the maroon & cream theme hantaran that was submitted and used last Saturday (10th April 2010) in Bukit Mahkota, Kajang.

The order started off with a call from my mother in-law who said that her neighbour requires help to create the arrangements of hantaran for his brother's wedding. After a short discussion, a few days later the order comes in with a specific request in having maroon, cream, artificial roses and beads in the arrangements - not to mention a short dateline :D

So I hit it off immediately...

The creation started with the base which is painstakingly made from a 15 mm polystyrene, line with a thin foam and covered with cream satin. The border is laced with maroon embroidery lace and is mirrored in all the boxes used.


What made the arrangement stands out is the lovely bunch of maroon velvet roses that looks like the actual fresh flowers coupled with strings of small pearls and bows of maroon and cream ribbons.The contrasting colors just compliment each other. To complete the look, sprinkles of pearl beads are glued to the base and some extra strings of pearl beads are attached to the base in a form of arcs.


Personally, the unique request in the usage of beads and the short time-frame given had made me create something very interesting and different from the usual arrangement I've made. And as you've guessed, the overall idea had been taken from the Pink theme from my cousin's wedding.
