I think they're fine, but never use them. To use them would mean that I have to buy them. ...I cut a twiggy stem and stick it in the bottom of the container. The twigs hold the stems upright as well as a frog does, and they have another advantage - they can be thrown onto the compost pile along with the spent flowers. <br /><br />I did a lot of research about getting those branches to stand tall and straight yet still have a fullness on top - this advice was the best, and the wedding was so beautiful, the hotel will be using photos of it in their promotional brochure. <br /><br />Thanks for your support.<br />xx Judy Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00619951031502775381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23991882.post-68633962085325884682013-07-29T10:51:28.359-04:002013-07-29T10:51:28.359-04:00sparkles, fairy lights and wood nymphs....magic!sparkles, fairy lights and wood nymphs....magic!Marianne Hallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08176512013747283346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23991882.post-59442199488828263592013-07-28T19:44:54.907-04:002013-07-28T19:44:54.907-04:00Love this idea . . . it's beautiful and the tr...Love this idea . . . it's beautiful and the trees are tall enough so that people can still see each other. I'm gobsmacked by photo #4. Absolutely gobsmacked. The lights and especially the upper lefthand corner. Can't tell what it is, exactly, but it's very comforting as well as intriguing to me. I'm on a lot of drugs right now, but I'm still gonna' tell you that it makes me think of ancestors in attendance.jeanne hewell-chambershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04968723702291208185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23991882.post-77315749510103793182013-07-28T19:31:47.284-04:002013-07-28T19:31:47.284-04:00honoring the trees in a beautiful way.
