I love white Majolica spray roses!

[TGDragonfly]

These white Majolica spray roses I'm using are FABULOUS. They are so full and delicious. I am pairing them with white/green parrot tulips, white lisianthus, vendela roses, white renonculas, white anenomes, white hydrangeas, and white cymbidiums, all these are being set in 6 inch cubes. But the Majolicas are my favorite.

Ahhrgg. Camera sucks, but here is a pic. When I start the next style, I'll show you. They will be the show stoppers.

This arrangement in the photo gets 5 various cubed glass candles I made using the beaded candle wax plus 10 square votives.

I also wanted to share a few more pics of my first Birch pole chuppah.
I never made one, and reading on here people who wait them down???

So being a event guy I decided to add alittle mechanics applied.
Home Depot in the shelving dept I picked up these iron shelve brackets. I drilled piolet holes and fastened with 1 1/4 ing lag screws.

I quite pleased, it is very sturdy and solid. When this is set up for the ceremony, the canopy will be made with interwoven white birch limbs. I will tack lite white fabric on the corners, and I bought white dendro orchid lies from Hawiaii that I will cut and hang.

I'll post some pics of it next week.

They are my favorite white spray too. I find the variation in ivory to white is wonderful, from a buying standpoint. I can usually use them in weddings for ivory and white, by picking them out from different stems/bunches. Occasionally they come in with too much or a pink or ivory twinge to pull them off for white, but I usually try to first if I just have need a few of each shade.

Shhhh... don't tell, but my designer is using them today, for a Sat wedding in the mother's clutch bouquets. We got them in about 2/10, maybe earlier. They look gorgeous!

Thanks Thom!! I can't wait to see your Birch Chuppah completed!

White & Pink majolicas are my favorite too - they remind me of the old fashoined gum paste roses - perfect delicate rosebud shape, gorgeous when open too .... and they hold wonderfully. Like Heather, I use them for white or ivory - it's funny how there can be such varieation in one bunch. Love them.

pretty Thom - shades of white is my personal favorite. I love the birch canopy idea - thanks for sharing the mechanics. May have to go hunting for poles when we're up in CT soon ....

They are delicious! I just "talked" a bride on a budget into using them for her bouquet - a clutch of two bunches of white majolica and that's it! Then tied off with a pink blush ribbon....YUM!

I'm glad you said that. I had some roses that had been around for about the same amount of time in my cooler and someone called ordered a dozen roses. I fought with myself about using them even though they were perfect, firm and beautiful. I went ahead and used them and the guy let me know later how well they lasted and how pretty they were. So I guess roses can last a long time!
