Rose petals. Ugh!

I had to do the same thing ahah. And when I did it I noticed some felt sooooo paper thin

Luckily I don’t have to do that. I was able to buy my flower girl petals and I will be ordering petals online soon for the isle.

I'm making my own, silk ribbon ones. Lol. Was going to buy them...thought dang, I'd save a lot of money if I just DIY.

View Quoted Comment THEY LOOK SO GOOOD!! So real, can barely tell they are made of silk , amazing job!

View Quoted Comment Thanks! I'm getting rid of the clear ones.. that ribbon was on sale for 1$ and thought I'd try it, but they look like little clouds.. doesnt match the other colors lol

View Quoted Comment Wow! Looks great!!!

Maybe try putting some in a bowl with a lid and shaking it? or in a lingerie bag in the dryer?

We have to use real petals as we are getting married outdoors on a working farm. Anything that won't be tied down or stationary in some way cannot be fake in case it ends up blowing around and near the animals.

Didn't have rose petals but I did decide to make CDs of our wedding music as favors. Really cute idea until you remember that CDs have to be burned individually. UGH! You can do it, push through!!

Get some wine, invite friends over, and make it a “Rose & Rosé“ party to help with the peeling!

How did you make these? Did you just singe the edges?

View Quoted Comment I bought silk ribbon, cut them into squares and took the edges around a tealight

This is why my little 2 yo flower girl is just going to carry a flower instead of spreading petals.

This! Call the girls over, get some wine, and unwind.

I did mine in about 1 hour I took them apart and put them into a trash bag they are still looking good hopefully they hold up until August

View Quoted Comment You are getting married on my birthday 😁 I'm sure they will be perfect 😁

View Quoted Comment Awwww thanks ❤️🦋❤️

I have no idea what I am going to do at my wedding. My venue does not allow flower petals, confetti, or anything! Not even sparklers! Any suggestions?

These look really great! I had no idea you could make them yourself! Might consider this if I am allowed to use fake ones. I am not sure yet, because I want to line the aisles for my outdoor ceremony.
