Ring Bearer Pillow –Make a statement with fresh flowers on your tiniest Groom’s man.


Materials Small, round pillow Two stems Spray roses Straight pins Floral shears


How To Snip ten roses just below the bloom and leaving no stem. Arrange your roses on top of the pillow, before pinning, until you are happy with the design. We created a triad of roses spraying out.


To secure the roses onto the pillow, insert straight pins directly into the center of the flower. Secure by pinning through the stem as well. Insert as many pins as needed to secure the blooms and your design.


7. Rose Petal Aisle


Materials 6000 fresh rose petals or 100 cups for a 20 foot aisle. Aisle runner Double-sided foam tape


How To Sketch out the design for your rose petal aisle. The most simple design would be to line each side of the aisle runner. Ideas for the center of the aisle are a monogram, swirls or shapes inspired by your theme.


Roll out the aisle runner and secure to the floor with double sided foam tape.


Begin decorating! Grab a handful of petals and create a border up each side of the aisle.


Tip


Rose petal aisle are one of the most efficient ways to decorate. You can be the designer but SAFETY FIRST! Be sure to strongly secure the aisle runner to the floor so that no one trips down the aisle.


8. Hair Flowers – Fragrant and elegant accessories


Materials Spray Roses Hypericum berry Floral shears 24 gauge floral wire Floral tape Bobby pins


How-To Snip three spray roses leaving a 3 inch stem on each. Cut a sprig of Hypericum Berry with a 3 inch stem. Bundle the roses and the sprig of Hypericum Berry in your hand and arrange so that the blooms are beautifully framed by the berries. Be sure that the blooms are lying flat and not making a round shape.


When you are happy with the position of the flowers, secure the stems by wrapping a piece of floral wire around to secure the stems. Cut off the extra wire.


Wrap the stems with floral tape to secure. Secure the bundle in the hair with bobby pins. To store the completed hair piece, mist with water and place in a cool room.

Mini-Cakes with Fresh Flowers - An adorable and easy way to decorate.


Materials Cupcakes Spray roses Drinking Straws Scissors


How To Cut drinking straws into 1 inch lengths. Flowers can alter flavor so we use the straws to keep the stems from touching the cake.


Cut the spray roses leaving about 1 inch of stem. Insert a straw into each cake. Insert bloom into the straw, set on a platter or stand and serve.


Tip


If your cakes are covered with fondant, use a crochet needle or ice pick to poke a hole before inserting the straw.
