Centerpeice Dilemma

KGB10

I'm working on my centerpieces. At first I was just going to do the three flowers with ribbon around the mason jar and sand with pictures of us inside the jars, but after I looked at them they seemed to be missing something. I've came up with two additions but cant seem to choose. Please give your opinons!

A Bow (I can always make the bow smaller)

A Brooch (not nessaceraly this particular one, its just one I had around the house from a friends wedding)

Do you think I should make the bow smaller? A friend said the bow takes away from the flowers.

I like the brooch.  I also would make the bow a bit smaller if you went with it.

The bow seems more cost effective so I vote bow.

I like the 2nd one as well...i think with the bow it looks like to much..just my opinion : )

What if you wrapped something around the middle instead -- I'm inclined to agree with your friend who said it somewhat detracts from the flowers.

I like the bow better! I feel like if you go with the brooch it should be tied around the middle of the jar so it makes more of a statement on its own instead of being used as an accent piece. Plus the bow is cuter with the daisies.

If you keep the bow, it definitely either needs to be smaller or a thinner ribbon.  It does make your eye focus on it rather than your flowers or the jar as a whole.  The brooch is pretty and my favorite of the two, but it makes the bottom half of the jar look very plain.  This will work if you put the sand & picture inside the jar, but sand + brooch is an odd combination, IMO.  Is the jar tinted blue, or is that just the lighting?  If not, and you don't use the sand idea - what if you spray painted a lace pattern on the jar?  I saw this on Pinterest and it looked really nice.  Not sure how that goes with your wedding theme though.  Good luck!

I like the brooch also.

The flowers look crowded, they need longer stems as PP said.  I also don't care for the tulle in the jar, better to add more flowers than the ribbon.
