    What do you think of this combination for centerpieces?

    1st pic is my inspiration of putting it together.

    2nd pic is purple tulips from SamsClub.com 100 stems for 101.28 shipping incl

    3rd pic is of the lavender flowers at sams 125 stems for 83.68

    4th pic is of the calla lilies I'm primarly using for the BM and bouts, but I will have some left over to throw in the centerpieces. 150 stems for 162.76

    5th pic is of a vase similar to the one I'm using. But mine are bigger (from michaels) And I'm making a fabric belly band around the vase.

    Let me know what you think!

    Per Centerpiece I will have:

    6 Roses

    5 Tulips

    4 Calla Lilies

    Do I need Greenery?

    It looks like in your inspiration picture there are some type of green berry.  They look smaller than traditional hypericum berries.

    Have you played with the number of flowers in those vases?  It looks like you are using more flowers than in the original image and that is a much larger container.  It is all about your preference in how tightly packed you want the flowers, but if you want them loose like in the picture then you may need to cut back the number of flowers you have estimated now.

    Well my vase is pretty large.

    In the inspiration pic they have 8 roses, 4 tulips, and 3 lilies. I'm doing 6, 5, and 4. So I'm actually going to have about the same amount of flowers in a much larger vase.

    That seems like a lot of flowers to me! But I'm thinking I will def need a filler!
