place card dilemma

Hi Leia,

You can also check Silk Orchid Flowers

They sell orchids heads only, which can be used for name cards. I ordered their orchid stems because it actually came out cheaper than buying individual heads (I will just cut the orchids off). I am attaching some of them to the rafia fans.

I plan on doing the starfish name cards too but since starfish also aren't in my theme, I was going to tie in the orchids by putting some around the box holding my starfish.

I plan on making a box that looks similar to this one (I can't remember where I found this so unfortunately I can't give credit!). I will just "borrow" sand from the beach and then put orchids and starfish in there.

I love that pic Tara! Thanks for sharing. I may just do the starfish and then scatter the orchids around it too. That website is so awsome. I think I'm going to purchase all my stems through them.

Here's some pics I'm using as inspiration...still searching...

I love the pic with the Gerber daisies Leia!

So here are my mock-ups for my escort cards. Prim and Pixie will be designing the escort cards and I will either use raffia or satin ribbon to tie them on the fake orchids. I bought a ton of natural touch orchid stems from Cymbidium Orchid Natural Touch 34in<br>#3750 Green (thanks tara!). I bought an insane amount of stems from this company (orchids on my fans, escort cards, on my wish tree, drowned w/ a floating candle for my centerpeices)

Ooh super cute!! My flowers are supposed to arrive tomorrow - can't wait! They look great!

I don't think they will be... I would love it because I can take it home with me, attach a pin to it, and add it to my beach bag as an accent.
