Economical Flower Embellishments

I got this idea from a post 

by Creations from the Heart

After looking at the price at the craft stores

I decided there had to be a better

cheaper way to do this

If you take out the plastic part of the flowers

you have the same type of flower embellishments

 that cost an arm and a leg

The pink bush had 102 flowers

at $3 for the bush

ended up .03 a piece

the white ones I got 69 at $2 for the stem 

or .03 apiece

The mixed was tricky

 I got 44 leaves and 45 flowers for 1.50 or .02 a piece

flowers alone would be .03 a piece

I also got some isolated flowers 

that if I could use in something else it will cost even less

So when you are out shopping and come across

silk flowers on the cheap

pick up a sprig!

You will be seeing theses in some future projects
You could even cut the petals for weddings

Even the large flowers can be used
on large cards
presents etc
