This post is way overdue! For my sister’s wedding, we made rose balls for the reception hall. Initially, we thought about using fresh carnations b/c they are sturdy and would last the entire day. However, we had problems with finding foam balls for fresh flowers (at least in the quantity that we wanted!). A revision had to be made so we thought about using red silk roses instead.
We strung a combination of rose balls and pom-poms using crystal beads.
(we also made some light-colored floral balls)
Even our tiniest helper rolled up her sleeves and got dirty! Zoey made some square ones…
Because we were preparing for our sister’s wedding night and day for 1 week straight, Starbucks overload was a must!
Hanging the balls at the dessert table:

Hi- I really can’t remember b/c we made sooo many!! However, if I have to guess…and these red balls are the smaller ones, perhaps 30-40 roses. It also depends on how full your roses are. The bigger ones will take up more surface area so you’ll need less. Have fun making them! Best, Kellie
