I saw on another post that you purchased your pendants from Michaels. I actually think that I am considering it. I refuse to pay over $40 for these. Did you make the bracelets for the charms? Overall how did you do them? I need help girl. lol

    Well, since I wasn't totally familiar with the tradition/customs, I just provided the charms, selected the order they would be placed so specific girls would get specific charms, and then had a frame on the cake table with a sign that explained what each charm meant, but I dind't know I was supposed to provide a bracelet as well.  Good thing none of them knew anything about cake pulls either, so they weren't disappointed.  Eleven charms cost me les than $7, and I just mailed them to Haydel's with the order in which I wanted them placed.  Remember to specify left to right or vice versa!

    Incidentally, most of the girls added the charms to ones they had on their phones or dangling from their rearview mirrors so I don't think they missed the bracelet :-)

    So what did you attach the charms to for them to pull from the cake?

    We had a mix of flowers and candles.  Half the tables had large 2 foot tall floral topiaries made of white hydrangeas and vines, then encircled with votives at the bottom, and the other half had lower/smaller hydrangea arrangements with several candle holders of various heights. Bee's Wedding and Event Design put them together, just as I had drawn out and described.  The pictures below were the inspiration.
