So who needs real flowers when you've got mad craft skills...lol...I don't know how great these are yet, but with a little practice, I think they could look pretty cool!
1) They didn't take me long to make...2) They look like the garden roses from my inspiration board...3) I can have complete control of the color they get spray painted (and we all know how much I love being in control!)...4)They're a little artsy, which is a little me, maybe, definitely...AND...
5)THEY WOULD BE SOOOOOOO MUCH CHEAPER THAN REAL FLOWERS!!!!
Cons:
None...oh except my mom wants to whine about how I should have real flowers...because these, of course, don't fit into her perfect idea of what my wedding should look like...i.e.-think copious amounts of tulle, beading, flowers, hor d' oeuvres before a 5 course meal.
The only con I can think of as I'm racking my brain...paper+candles=fire...so either we 86 candles or...have them arranged in such a way as to avoid fire hazards...that means my cousin Ryan sits off in a corner by himself, possibly chained to a chair or some other permanent means of imprisoning him.
Opinions...Comments?
Hate to break it to you, but there's no way strategic candle/paper flower placement is going to prevent our wonderfully coordinated friends from lighting something on fire. Is there fire-retardant paint?
ReplyDeleteThe flowers look good - pretty realistic. But they would be a bitch to spray paint haha.
