I have been "planning" my wedding for years. I have gradually picked up unusual wire frames, planters, silk flowers, and greenery from resale shops when I can find them. The average price being around $0.75 each. I created this piece out of a stiff wire frame, some silk flowers, and greenery. The best part was a lighted ball that I weaved into the "plant" with floral tape, also found at the resale shop. When I get married in November, it will be on the signing table.
