Jewelry made out of bridal bouquets is the perfect thing for the bride that wants that extra special something to remind her of her wedding day. Diane Fehrenbacher formulated her own chemical compound that turns flower petals into lasting, durable beads that hold the flower's color and scent.

Heart Keepsakes make memorable gifts for mothers and grandmothers of the bride and groom, and bridal attendants, as well as for the bride herself. Roses are the most popular flower, but nearly every flower will work. Diane also makes beads from cloth. Last spring she made a necklace from a piece if an antique silk wedding dress. The young bride wore the necklace on her wedding day as a tribute to her great, great, great grandmother who had worn the original dress 200 years before.
