Wreaths to raise money!



These are some of the completed wreaths Beckie and I have made to raise money for our charity for the Chicago Marathon, 10-10-10.

We are running for St. Jude Children's Hospital. The wreaths are $20 with $15 of that going to the charity and the other $5 to cover the cost of materials.

I'm nearly out of fall/rust flowers, but will consider getting more if the
demand is there for them. I can make any colors you need, so request away!

Pink and silver pomander ball


This is a pink and silver pomander (aka kissing or flower) ball. It's just a preliminary shot, it doesn't have the ribbon for hanging.

It includes light pink roses and silver orchids and measures about 5" in size (a large grapefruit or a softball size).

Red Heart



I needed to use new red roses, because the ones I was using have been either permanently or temporarily discontinued. These are also easy to work with and very near the same shade of red as the others. Enjoy!

This is a red, black and ivory cascading bouquet.
It was made with red roses, and black and ivory sweetheart roses (sweetheart roses are smaller roses than the standard sizes). I also included baby's breath, sheer ivory ribbon, and satin red and black ribbon.

CHRISTMAS! bouquet



Pictures of the roses up close (sorry, one was pretty dark...hard to get the lighting right on a gloomy day). The bouquet is made of burgundy and white roses, gold berries, red poinsettias, frosted evergreens, gold sheer ribbon and burgundy ribbon. Quite a large bouquet measuring approximately 15" across and 29" long! It got me started feeling the holiday spirit (before Halloween! :D)!
