Brooches on Wedding Cake - HELP!

As I'm having a brooch bouquet, our cake make suggested doing something like the below for the cake:


Ours would be white icing and royal blue ribbon - 3 tiers.

However, I'm in a bit of a panic today - I'm meeting with the cake lady next week to give her the ribbon & brooches and I've realised I have no brooches left over! ?

Does anyone know of anywhere I can get 3 diamante brooches (like those in the pic) before next Thursday? All the ones for my bouquet were from China and I simply don't have the time now! They need to be about 2" in diameter as that's the thickness of the ribbon and I need them to slot on easily.

Any help greatly appreciated!

    Hi. Try somewhere like Boyes. They tend to have button/ brooch things in their craft section. Also, claires accessories, Xtras etc- often you will find things on metal headbands which can be removed and attached to ribbons. A darn sight cheaper than buying actual brooches too usually xx

    Give her the ribbons, and post the brooches on to her when you find them. better to take a couple of weeks to track down ones you like than to panic buy this week.

    Otherwise,

    amazon?

    Thanks for your help ladies! I'll try them & I also found 3D jewellery on here as a supplier so I've dropped them a mail also.
