1st centerpiece trial

Here is the 1st  trial run for our center pieces, I’m thinking of getting bigger mirrors and I will add rose petals and more diamonds and crystals. What you think ladies....

    Thanks, Any ideas on how to keep the flower from floating to the top? I had to put clear rock on it to keep it at the bottom....

    Very pretty very close to what we are having. Are you using real / artificial flowers? What type of stem is on the flower? that makes a big difference in it floating or staying put. If your using artificial flowers look for flowers that look like they have a real stem, then you can adjust, wrap, twist , etc to fit right into the vase and there's no need for rocks which will only add to your cost. I found my roses at walmart for $2 eea. Or if you already bought your flowers try using a hot glue gun, just be careful to get the glue into the bottom of vase. You won't be able to tell the glue is on bottom but you will notice if it get on the sides and its a mess to get off unless you have small hands. I hope this helps.
