Forget-me-nots help

I feel so stupid. I posted this problem over on DIY & just remembered there's a flower board!! Anyways, I have to use fake flowers for the wedding due to allergies. I am having trouble though finding fake and/or silk blue forget-me-nots. Here's a pic of what I want the bouquet to look like.

So obviously I won't need a whole lot of the forget-me-nots. I've tried looking on the websites of Michael's, Hobby Lobby & JoAnn's. It's not helping. I could drive to 'em tomorrow & see if they're in the store, but I have a feeling I won't have any luck. Any ideas? Thanks!

Those don't really look like real forget me nots... more like small hydrangea blossoms... 

So maybe if you search that way you will do better.  I also expect the craft stores will have more springy stuff now toward Eastertime...

Sometimes PEIR 1 imports has nice silks too... maybe try there... 

good luck and it looks pretty!

I have forget me nots in my front yard. They are very tiny flowers, less than 1/8 inch across. The ones in the bouquet might be called "Forget-me-knots", but they are not life-like size.

I googled "Silk forget me not" got the following

These are all light-ish blue in color, you'd have to find or order them and make your own stems which would not be that hard.........put the silk flower part on a longer stem in your bouquet:

Thanks you two. Yeah, I checked hobby lobby, michael's & joann's. I found those ones at hobby lobby & almost bought them but I figured I'd look some more. Plus they're not quite what I'm looking for. And I realized they're not the same size as shown in the bouquet pic when I put them next to some artificial roses. Might have to go with a different flower. I'll figure it out eventually! Thanks again!
