this stuff…you can buy this stuff in other ways. But it costs a bit more then what I did. I went to the party section of Hobby Lobby & bought children's grass skirts. I chopped off the wrap part & tied them this way.  a cheap trick.

I am in charge of photography at the meetings. The lighting is TERRIBLE, so I take out 50% of the color & add light to make them all look the same.  These photos were printed on card stock & then to make them stand I used an "L" taped to the back to hold them up.

These are the small bouquets with the small photos for the tables. The vases with flowers stood about 5" tall.

The flowers I bought for the table. It has been colorless in Birmingham-other then dull browns & green moss. I thought bright, fun colors would be cool. who doesn't love a sweet daisy??

    I am LOVING this idea! The flowers are so you and have your signature style. You made this thing happen and that is so, so good. Are you sure that you don’t regularly wear a grass skirt ? (only joking)!- Karen.

      Ha, Karen. Would you like me to mail the grass skirt to you? I love thinking outside the box to save money. I feel empowered knowing I found a great deal. Sometimes things can be used in different ways. I always hit the crafts stores after every holiday because they are getting rid of everything for 90% off. I hope to make it work. So far I’m just giving them away. But, but…the reactions I receive have been so positive. I may just end up doing nothing about it. But I hope it works. Thanks for your support, Karen! ~amy
