6,000 rose petals

Angel, on January 2, 2014 at 10:48 AM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 7

I know this may sound a little crazy, but is 6,000 rose petals really alot? I want my aisle runner to be bordered with rose petals. My aisle is about 34 feet. and I want it to look thick. I know the rose petals are kinda thin too. I just dont want to end up with thousands of rose petals I dont need..

    I would definitely go with silk for this. The only thing someone might do if they are real is pick one up and say "hm! it's real" and put it down. Save the money for sure and go fake!

    One pro and one con. Pro, fake is cheaper and easier to clean up. Con, they will all get swept up under your dress train, unless you hot glue them down to something, which takes forever and a day.

    Silk have to be cleaned up. If outdoors, real petals will biodegrade eventually, so you don't have to be as fanatical to get them all. Real petals could stain floor or your dress, silk won't (maybe they will if they get wet).
