    So, I wanted to something a little different for pew decorations.  I don't know why, but the idea of using a picture frame popped into my mind, and I had seen flower wreaths here used for other things.  I also loved the idea of a wreath since my wedding will be a week before Christmas (though not at all Christmas themed).

    My theme is black and white damask, very formal and my accent colors will be fuschia and purple.

    So, I went to the Dollar Tree today to get some supplies and this is what I came up with: I plan to use black and white engagement pictures for the frames and alternate between the frames and wreaths down the aisle.What do you think of these for pews? :  wedding pew decorations Wreathandframesm small frame and wreath " mce_src="What do you think of these for pews? :  wedding pew decorations Wreathandframesm small frame and wreath " alt="" border="" hspace="" vspace="" width="" height="" align="" />

    Sorry, not sure why the pic posted twice!!What do you think of these for pews? :  wedding pew decorations Icon Confused  And I know the pics are a little squished, still not very good at resizing.

    Anyway, let me know what y'all think!

    Love them both!  How did you make the wreaths?  I might have to "steal" that idea for our pews.  I might even add something in the middle of the wreath, like a momento or something.

    Thanks for the opinions ladies!

    @ Caliwed, I'd be happy to send you pics of the supplies I started out with.  Everything was from the Dollar Tree, so it was really inexpensive.  I was surprised by the quality of the frames and white roses, they really did look pretty nice for only being $1!

    The wreaths started out with a foam circle and then I simply pulled the flowers off of the bouquets and hotglued them onto the wreath.  I used about 2 1/2 bouquets to fill the entire wreath (I did buy larger flowers).  Total cost = about $4 each!

    I love the wreath!  I think it's lovely.  The pink is such a pretty color, have you considered alternating wreath colors of white and pink?

    I love the picture frame idea...this may sound nit-picky...but is it possible to have some of the ribbon hanging below the frame as well?  You know, for balance...
