I know of adding Swarovski crystals to the bouquet, there must be some other alternatives out there...

i added some to my bms bouquets. i got these things that looked like they should be flowers on stems but in place of flowers there were little crystal like beads. they were at hobby lobby. i had planned on doing some for mine but decided not to at the last minute. i think you could find whatever kind of beads or crystals you want and then attach them to wire by either threading it through them or if they dont have holes you could glue them to the wire.....? here are my bms bouquets...

We bought the crystals at a wholesale floral store where we got all the flowers. They were actually made especially for bouquests. You may try looking at Hobby Lobby or Michael's. They're just crystals on stems!
Good Luck,

I used Crystals and Black Glass Leaf shaped Beads in mine.

They were sold on One Stem. So i worked down the stem and cut off what i needed in "Clumps".

Because i'm in the UK. I can only mention eBay for stuff due to not knowing American Stores.

Hope you find what you're looking for.

I am doing French beaded flowers and a crystal bouquet. I went to a bead store or walmart buy loose crystal beads I got fire polished glass and wire. threaded crystal on wire and put to center then twisted to hold in place at the end. these are very expensive to buy so I am making mine! google crystal bouquets. good luck! for french beaded instructions I went to and looked on youtube videos.
