Behind the Scenes: Pomanders

We had a wedding this past month that included some gorgeous fall flowers. We're still getting the pictures all in place, but here's a few behind the scenes shots I thought you might enjoy.

Two of the arrangements were pomanders for a flower girl and the maid of honor. I'm so glad pomanders are coming back into style because they're super cute and a little different than your standard bouquet. The problem is that they're round and that can be hard to work with. You can't set it on your table once parts of it are covered in flowers- otherwise you would bruise the flowers. It gets difficult to hold onto after awhile because you're trying to keep your fingers in between the flowers. We can't hang a wire from our ceiling to hook it on since it's way too high. So how do you solve this dilemma?

You find a wreath stand and hang from the hook!


This was my bosses brilliant idea. It swings around and suddenly you can work all sides. I was thrilled.

Here's a closeup:


I love the colors. And the little pumpkins popped in there! Beautiful, fun and stylish all in one.
