Wooden Roses??? Advice

I collect roses and I have several odd roses like them They are perfect... as they don't die and really reasonable. good choice.

That sounds really intriguing... Do you have a link to photos of them?

There is so many sights in google but here's one http://www.touchedforeverflowers.com/ they do personalised ones as well so i was thinking of doing our names and wedding date as wedding favors.

That's definitely an interesting concept... I can't see how they're wood though. they look more like silk or something.

It would be a great way to have your bouquet last a really long time, that's for sure!

They're also really affordable, especially at under $1 each, that would make a great wedding favor.

Brian Noah, they are made with a very thing wood shaving . and formed then they are wonderful. I have 5 different colors of them I bought from a finder at the swapmeat here in OC. about Valenties day for $1.00 eac.. Aussie Bride..

I think that the personal touch is wonderful...

They're actually very pretty.. photos never do them justice.. however, I would order small samples of what you're interested in and test out the company, as well as the roses!

I checked out the above site and they look amazing. i may even look into them for my wedding. i am not a flower kinda girl, but these would work. thanks for the idea.

Thanks jenni lynn im definately going to order a small amount now. thanks for the info icart i didnt know exactly how they were made. just4me im not much of a flower person either so i think itll be an interesting way to go.

What are your wedding colors? if this was more of an antique style wedding with rustic reds and browns it would be so cool to leave them the nautral wood color. i think they are great and since i just spent like 370.00 on having my bouquet preserved, i love the idea even more LOL

A client of mine makes wooden roses and actually gave me a bouquet of them. I just took a photo of them to give you an idea of what they look like bunched together. They do not sit well up against each other.

I think they are still pretty bunched together @ Something blue.

Very unique idea. I say go for it and you can't beat the price!

My colors are blue and silver. thanks for the pic something blue designs I dont intend to have a tight bunch I am actually using some feathers and beads/crystals in the bouquets with the roses. i found a gorgeous picture of a bouquet made this way and it was done with wooden roses.

That sounds pretty! The large roses on the link you provided are very pretty!

I think that it is a very cute idea. I have some that I bought awhile back. You can even spray them with any scent you want and it lasts for a long time.

Aussie bride, i'd love to see a picture of that!

Http://www.yr-design.co.uk/#/feathers-3/4519292892 the second set of pictures done. its called the wooden rose bouquet im planning on doing something similar but with different feathers that are a bit fuller. then with blue roses and some silver crystal accents.

Thats gorgeous!

Those are so cool!! I am considering them, now.

Aussiebride, a bride on one of my other forums, made her bouquets out of wooden roses, and it looked absolutely FANTAAAAASTIC! i was VERY close to going to the wooden roses, esp with a beach wedding(you know, petrified wood )....BUT fh said he'd kill me, since i already bought all our flowers i'd post her link, but i'd feel like i sold her out lol...

Im really hoping i can find a way to make my own bouquet with them the more i look at them the more i like them. fh and i have decided to use them for favors to with our wedding date and names on them which is only 1.75 to get done for 50-99 which really isnt much at all
