Hi Everyone,
I've decided to do crepe paper flowers as both pew ends and centerpieces for my wedding since it's hella cheaper and can be done long beforehand. I've got about 20 rectangular glass vases from Ikea of different heights (not super wide) and I'm going to use lots of little glass yogurt jars so there'll be at least three heights of flowers along the tables. Only problem now is I dont know what to put in the vases below the flowers. Obviously water is not a good idea, they're too narrow for lemons or walnuts. I think I could do hazelnuts, or jordan almonds (expensive) but any ideas would be good. I dont want the wire below the flowers to be super visible since that's the one not-pretty part (thus most clear things are out). For a basis of reference, our wedding will be late september, bordeaux and ivory and light green as the base colors and it's in the southwest of France in a region known for foie gras, duck, walnuts, and black truffles (waaaay too expensive). Any ideas would be awesome!
