We added the blue roses (my daughter-to-be's favorite) that we got as a free sample (thank you!!) to the DIY dark & moody bouquet, plus a few other bits and bobs I had around the house, and came up with the picture I'm attaching. I'm not the world's best photographer, but we're thrilled with how it came out! The included stem wires are nice and substantial, and the flowers are so beautiful it's hard to believe they're wood. We added some opalescent paint to the tips of the flowers so they look like they're frosted. It's the most fun I've had all year!
