Beach Wedding Bouquet Help Needed

[RivieraBride15]

Hi ladies,

 

I'm hoping someone on here can help me.  I had put a deposit down on this bouquet that had starfish in it to go along with the theme of our wedding.  Long story short, I told the seller to keep my deposit...it was turning into too much of a hassle.  The hotel we are getting married at does give the choice of bouquets so I have decided to go ahead and do that since I found one I really like.  Problem is, I would like to add starfish to it.  I know on Etsy I saw starfish on a stick so that you can stick that into the flowers, and for the life of me...now I can't find it.  Anyone know where I can get these or have any DIY ideas that you think might work?  Whatever I do go with, needs to be durable to make the trip to Mexico.  TIA for any help!

Here are the starfish sticks. I'm considering getting them too:

and these ones:

I might play around with hot glue gunning some small starfish maybe onto skewer sticks or something like that. We shall see.

@@yycbride2016 - Have you contacted this seller about these starfish?  I contacted her twice and have had no luck with a response.

@@RivieraBride15 No sorry, I haven't reached out yet as I'm not sure if I'm going to order these or not. I'll depend on the type of bouquet I chose. Sorry.

I know sometimes if the seller is only doing things part time it may take a few days to answer. I also did inquire about something at the beginning of the year and never heard back from the seller at all. It can be a bit frustrating but have you done a search on Etsy to see if anyone else is selling them?

I did - and she seems to be the only one who makes those.  I have another woman on there that is making my

boutonnieres, so I just asked her if she could make them for me.  Plus, this way the starfish will all match. 

 

Anyways, thanks for finding the idea for me!
