Can someone tell me how to DIY these tall centerpieces?

I'm a true DIY bride, and I'd really like to recreate one of these centerpieces. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna need some Oasis floral foam, but can anyone give me more direction? Possibly link to a website that has directions?

Can someone tell me how to DIY these tall centerpieces?
Two things.


1) rent a candelabra with a BOWL. It fits in the center where the candle would be. This is what holds the floral foam and keeps your roses from dying.


2) Buy some roses and practice beforehand. It's going to take hours to do these centerpieces, and you will need help. Buy a dozen or so roses and get you helpers to practice with you. It's going to be harder than you think it is.


You can buy roses in bulk pretty cheaply. Try Big Rose dot com.
Reply:Try this website, they have all kinds of ideas.

good luck.
Reply:I think the right container is your answer. The drama is the style, it wouldn't matter what flowers you used. You could use weeds and they would look beautiful. They ARE beautiful. Do you have any contacts at a floral wholesale business?





If I was close to you I would volunteer to help!
Reply:First off, they are both gorgeous! Definetely going to need floral foam. Are you going to rent the holders? It really doesnt look hard to do, I would get some silk flowers and just play with the design to get it the way you want it first. Semmetry will be key.
