Custom Silk Flower Cake Topper - Reveal and Review

,

Earlier this summer, Rachel’s aunt reached out to me as they were trying to get someone who could recreate a a floral cake topper. The original had been made of sugar flowers and the creator was in the UK, so there wasn’t a way to get the exact same piece. That’s where I come in! They sent me some photos of the original design and I looked through my various suppliers until I found just the right flowers and greenery to create a silk flower cake topper that was what they were looking for! Rachel was kind enough to send me a few photos by Precious Pics of her beautiful wedding cake!

Rachel’s custom cake topper had a soft yellow Rose for the center with blue Hydrangea, white mini Daisies, blue Forget-Me-Nots, yellow Craspedia (or Billy Buttons) and some touches of greenery and vines. It was dainty and also a show stopper!

“Your arrangement looked absolutely beautiful, it really made the cake! Thank you again!”

Jewel Tone Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal

, ,

Getting to work with local couples is always fun because I get to meet them in person when they pick up their flowers. And if I’m really lucky, I get to run into them in the wild, like I did at my son’s basketball tournament recently! Amber was so easy to work with to create her custom silk wedding flower designs and so it was extra fun to see her again and meet her husband and their sweet kiddos in a school gym, of all places! She had just sent me these photos a few days before, so it was great timing to be able to share their wedding day with you! Let’s take a look at these awesome photos by Abigail Niemann Photography.

Our happy couple who look like they are having the best day ever in these pictures! Amber’s bouquet was a teardrop cascade style with a mix of emerald green Roses, white Lilies, purple Mums, burgundy and magenta Roses, cream Ranunculus, berry Tea Roses, Succulents, Lamb’s Ear and Eucalyptus. I loved this color combination, especially with that pop of magenta in there!

The bridesmaids carried similar bouquets in a smaller handtied style. We did simplify them so that only the bridal bouquet had Liles and Succulents. That just meant Amber’s bouquet stood out even more!

I love the celebration here!

Mauve, Terra Cotta, Nude, Champagne, Blush and Berry Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

If you are looking for a unique, non pink, variety of colors palette that stands out, today is the wedding for you! Heather reached out to me with a lovely color palette of mauve, terra cotta, nude, sage, champagne, and navy. We ended up adding in some peach and blush to blend between the bolder tones. Another unique feature is that Heather really wanted to include Bunny tails, a preserved accent that added some softness and texture to the arrangements. Let’s take a look at Heather’s custom silk wedding flowers, photographed by Melissa McKean Photography!

Heather’s bouquet was a modified cascade style based on an inspiration photo that had just a slight cascade to it. The design included: a mix of standard Eucalyptus, Bunny Tails, nude Roses, champagne Peonies, berry Tea roses, blush Roses, toast Roses, mauve Peonies, terra cotta Roses and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus.

The bridesmaid bouquets were smaller handtied style bouquets based on an inspiration photo and were simplified to include a terra cotta Rose, nude Rose, toast Roses, berry Tea Rose, mauve Peony, Bunny Tails and both kinds of eucalyptus.

“I recently had the pleasure of working with Erin from Love is Blooming for my wedding flowers, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the entire experience. From start to finish, Erin demonstrated exceptional professionalism, creativity, and a genuine commitment to making my floral vision come to life. One of the standout qualities of Erin’s service was her consistent communication throughout the entire process. At every stage, she provided timely updates, ensuring I was involved in the decision-making process. This level of communication not only put me at ease but also made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free. The care Erin took in packaging each arrangement was evident from the moment I received them. Every bouquet, greenery strand, boutonniere, and corsage was meticulously prepared and arrived in perfect condition. It was evident that Erin takes great pride in her work, and her attention to detail truly set her apart. Working with Erin was an absolute breeze. She was not only professional but also personable, making the collaboration feel more like a partnership. She listened attentively to my ideas, offered valuable suggestions, and translated my vision into stunning floral arrangements that exceeded my expectations. The bridal bouquet, bridesmaids’ bouquets, greenery centerpieces, boutonnieres, and the mother of the bride/groom corsages were beautiful. The silk flowers were vibrant and arranged with an artistic touch that added an extra layer of elegance to my wedding. I highly recommend Erin from Love is Blooming to anyone in search of a talented and dedicated silk florist. Her commitment to excellent communication, careful packaging, and outstanding creativity made my wedding floral experience unforgettable. Erin’s expertise and friendly demeanor made her a joy to work with, and I am truly grateful for the beautiful contribution she made to my special day.”

Red, Blue and White Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Today’s color combination might have you thinking, why are you sharing this in November? Shouldn’t this be a 4th of July post? That right there is why I’m sharing it now. While this color palette can be equated with the Stars and Stripes, it doesn’t have to! Bride Samantha and her sister worked with me to create custom silk wedding flowers that incorporated the colors Samantha loved without looking patriotic. Let’s take a look at her red, blue and white silk wedding flowers, photographed by the very talented NuView Photography!

Samantha had favorite flowers she wanted to include in the designs and she sent me the bridesmaid dress color that was a beautiful dusty blue. We landed on deep red Roses, dusty blue Roses, brighter red Begonias, navy Mums, white Baby’s Breath and Silver Dollar Eucalyptus. The bouquets were round handtied style with different combinations of navy, dusty blue and red ribbon wrapped and crisscrossed over the stems.

This picture gives a great look at the detail on Samantha’s bouquet up close. She wanted a touch of lace, so we found a way to include that on her bouquet and she added a few small framed photos to honor loved ones.

I love pictures like this that include so many special people in the couples’ lives! If you zoom in on our awesome couple, you’ll see a couple of non-humans that are special too. They were not only a part of the big day, they got in on the flower action too!

Look at these sweet babies! One wore a suit that matched the bridal party and had a tiny boutonniere to match. The other kitty wore a dress and I created a custom flower crown for her tiny kitty head!

“Erin is amazing! I was able to just give her my vision for what I wanted for my wedding, and she was able to take all the ideas and create an amazing bouquet for my girls and I. Erin was very patient with all my edits and what if ideas throughout the process. Erin explained the different techniques that she was using to create the bouquets. At the wedding my guests were amazed (including my photographers) that the flowers weren’t real! I would highly recommend her services!”

Dusty Pink and White Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, ,

Lucky us, we get to look back on a beautiful wedding sent in by bride Alycia! Her vision for her custom silk wedding flowers included dusty pinks and white with a mixture of greenery for full and lush and “natural” looking bouquets. Let’s take a closer look at the photos she sent me by her talented photographer: Blessed Day Photography by Megan Edmonds.

Alycia’s bouquet was a modified cascade style based on an inspiration photo she sent me. Even though it was a photo of an altar arrangement, it showed the shape and composition she loved with just the right ratio of flowers to greenery. That was extremely helpful for me to catch her vision. I suggested a variety of flowers in her colors and came up with a design plan. The final design of her bouquet included: white hydrangea, light dusty pink Roses, white mini Ranunculus, darker dusty pink Peonies, white Sophia Roses, white filler seeds, willow and silver dollar Eucalyptus.

The bridesmaids carried loose handtied style bouquets with the same mix of flowers and greenery.

“I cannot recommend Erin enough!! Her professionalism, knowledge, and kindness made the process of designing the bouquets so easy. I sent Erin a Pinterest picture of what I had envisioned, and she provided me with flower and color options to make sure I got the bouquet of my dreams. Her timeline was spot on, coming in plenty of time ahead, allowing me to not stress about flowers! I received SO many compliments on them. And, they photograph so well. They look SO real! I now have a beautiful keepsake to remind me of our special day.”
— Alycia | Maine

Those dusty pinks really popped against the blue dresses and navy suits!

What a gorgeous backdrop for our happy couple!

Red, White, and Green Bridal Bouquet Recreation - Reveal and Review

, ,

Andy reached out to me about recreating his wife’s bouquet for their upcoming 20th anniversary! When you think back on all the styles in the last 20 years, you can see how this bouquet stands the test of time. Her red, white, and green bridal bouquet was a classic mix of colors, flowers, and greenery that was a good fit for a custom bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers. Let’s take a look!

Photography by Ken Nelson

The original bouquet was a mix of white and red Garden Roses, Seeded Eucalyptus and small filler greenery. Andy thought it was originally constructed in a bouquet holder, so I kept the stems thin and wrapped them fully in white ribbon to mimic the look.

“I have only great things to say here. I provided a few pictures, not even really great pictures, and from it received an excellent silk reproduction of my wife’s wedding bouquet. It made a wonderful and emotional 20th-anniversary gift!”

Wedding Bouquet Recreation with Bling

I have an awesome bouquet recreation in silk flowers to show you today that includes some really beautiful bling! Amy reached out to me about recreating her daughter’s lovely wedding bouquet. You can see in the photos below from their photographer Royal Studio- Chicago that it was a stunning mix of white and deep red Roses along with some dusty pink Roses, Spray Roses, Baby’s Breath and some white Caspia. The cool thing about her daughter’s bouquet is that it incorporated small gold brooches with rhinestones and a large blue and gold jeweled brooch that was a show stopper. Amy was able to send both of them to me to include the recreation. Let’s take a look at the side by side to see them both together!

Cabernet, Taupe and Nude Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

I am SO excited to share this moody and dreamy and lovely wedding today! Local bride, Abby, had a color palette that I’ve seen rise in popularity the last two years: Cabernet (burgundy), navy and gold. But we didn’t want to hit those head on in the custom bouquets. Instead, we featured that deep burgundy, taupe, a little touch of nude and greenery for bouquets that were lush and textured and really stood out against the cabernet bridesmaid dresses and the mens’ suits. Let’s take a look at Abby’s stunning silk wedding flowers. Photos by the very talented Katy Greseth of Capture Glory Photography. You can find her on FB @KatyGreseth or IG @katygreseth.

Here’s our happy couple! Abby worked closely with me to pick out just the right colors for her bouquet. The bridal bouquet was a loose handtied style with a mix of nude and burgundy Garden Roses, taupe Garden Roses, white seeds and lots of Seeded Eucalyptus. We tied it off with some sheer, gold ribbon to give it just the smallest bit of shimmer and tie in her color scheme even more.

The groom’s boutonniere featured a burgundy Garden Rose, taupe Rose bud, some seeds and Eucalyptus. We used the same sheer gold ribbon to finish off the look.

And because this bouquet is just too pretty, here’s a few more shots of it!

“Erin was GREAT to work with! Easy to communicate with, timely with replies, and the flowers turned out beyond perfect. They photograph so well! Would highly recommend working with her.”
— Abby | Minnesota

The groomsmen had similar boutonnieres, simplified without the rose bud. It made for a cohesive and classic look.

The bridesmaids carried clutch style bouquets that incorporated one of each of the 3 colors of flowers, seeds and Eucalyptus. Even though clutch bouquets are smaller, you can use greenery to give a fuller look.

One of the many great things about silk wedding flowers is that set up is a snap. You don’t have to pay for a professional to come get things laid out perfectly and they will look great for your entire day. I wanted to show some examples of Abby’s use of silk flowers for wedding decor. Here you can see some clusters of flowers and greens aisle arrangements. These can also be hung on ribbon loops if your chairs allow.

Abby had also order two custom pieces meant to sit on top of wine barrels for the ceremony. Unfortunately, due to rain that day, they had to move things inside. But as you can see, it was a beautiful place to exchange vows and the wine barrel arrangements worked perfectly on stands next to the fireplace.

These custom pieces had a little more height and width to them than a standard bouquet, but had a flat bottom to sit on whatever surface was needed!

At your reception, I always suggest having your bouquets do double duty at your head table or somewhere else in your reception venue. Just buy vases, space them out along the head table and as each of you and your bridal party enter, drop a bouquet in the vase! It’s as easy as that!

If you love the idea of being a part of the design process for your custom wedding flowers, don’t want to be surprised the day of by substitutions, wilting flowers or tricky set up, silk wedding flowers might be a good fit!

Mike contacted me for a custom bridal bouquet recreation in silk wedding flowers for his upcoming anniversary. This beautiful bouquet was a combination of white Roses and Casablanca Lilies, Blue Dendrobium Orchids and Pittosporum.

Lavender Bouquet Recreation with Accents - Reveal and Review

, ,

Today, I get to share with you a lovely lavender bridal bouquet recreation in silk flowers with some unique accents. Rich reached out to me and sent me a few photos, taken by a family friend, from their wedding day. His wife’s bouquet was a mix of white and lavender Roses, ribbon accents and small silver/pearl bulbs mixed in. Let’s take a look at the recreation!

While I always do my very best to match as closely as possible, sometimes there are slight changes that have to be made. As in this case, I wasn’t able to find ribbon in the same striped look in the right color. I did find a color match that was acceptable to Rich and he felt it was a good representation of the look of the bouquet overall.

“Erin did an awesome job creating a replication of my wife’s bouquet! My wife loves it!

Bright Beach Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Charlee reached out to me for help when the original silk bridal bouquet she ordered from a different florist didn’t live up to her expectations. While there were some elements of her purchase that she liked, it pretty much needed to be remade. I started sending her options of what I could add to it and how I could reshape it to bring her vision to life. What we ended up designing together is a stunner of a bouquet for her tropical wedding last year. Let’s take a look at the photos by Silverfox Studios of New York.

Charlee’s bouquet needed to stand out on such a big and beautiful back drop. Her modified cascade bridal bouquet was a mix of blue Hydrangea, orange Hibiscus and Orchids, flame Succulents, pink Peonies, green Hydrangea, Gloriosa lilies, yellow Roses, Cymbidium orchids, red and green Anthurium and a whole bunch of tropical foliage. She loved the idea of trailing ribbon, so we finished off the bouquet with a ribbon wrap and tails.

“Thanks for my amazing wedding bouquet; so pretty and bright, exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for making the time to re-do my original bouquet that I had made. You made my day very happy once I received what I imagined it to look like : ) The guests all loved my bouquet and commented that it was very beautiful, unique and stunning.”
— Charlee | New York

Charlee had ordered bridesmaid bouquets prior to working with me and I loved how she had chosen to go simple with white flowers and greenery so that their varying shades of dress colors would stand out.

She also sent me this photo of how she displays her bouquet at home. I love the branch full of shells and beach glass to go with it!

Sisters' Bridal Bouquet Recreations - Reveal and Review

, , , ,

Bridal Bouquet recreations aren’t just for the gifting husband. I have had sisters, friends, and moms all order them for someone else. I have also had plenty of brides who wanted a bridal bouquet recreation in silk wedding flowers for themselves! Rounine, my lovely customer, fit into two of those categories. She wanted a bridal bouquet recreation for herself and one for her sister! Let's take a look at these very special pieces.

Rounine’s bouquet was a mix of white Roses, Eucalyptus and Seeds in a round handtied style. So classy and elegant!

“My sister and I got married really close and we both wanted to preserve our flowers but didn’t know how. I was on google and the website came up, I emailed Erin and hoped she could do it, I was not disappointed. She communicated and sent pictures throughout the process, and it was affordable. I also wanted to surprise my sister with her own bridal bouquet recreation. I received the bouquets on Saturday and my sister happened to be with me. She was so happy with hers, she couldn’t believe how close it was to her actual bouquet. She like me wishes that she knew about love is blooming before her wedding day. We would have just gone with “fake” flowers and be able to keep all of our floral arrangements. We are very happy with the end results and we hope to use them in the future for our anniversary celebrations and preserve them along with other mementos from our wedding. Thank you again for a job well done.”

It included Cymbidium Orchids, Anemone, Thistle, Stock flowers, burgundy Roses, Hypericum Berries, Kangaroo Paw, Queen Anne’s Lace, Eucalyptus, Grass and Bunny Tails.

Silk Bridal Bouquet in Purple - Reveal and Review

, , ,

Today, I get to share with you a truly custom silk bridal bouquet! Sarah contacted me about creating a custom bridal bouquet for her to match the bridesmaid bouquets she already had. I was able to make some suggestions that matched closely and also included some unique elements that would make her bouquet stand out, but also work with what she had.

Sarah’s silk bridal bouquet was a loose, round handtied that was full of beautiful texture and colors. White Garden and Cabbage Roses, lavender Garden Roses, medium purple Ranunculus and cabbage Roses, plum tea Roses, Lavender, white Baby’s Breath, Waxflower and Blueberries. I made it nice and lush with adding a variety of greenery, including: Lamb’s Ear, Silver Dollar Eucalyptus, Standard Eucalyptus and Ruscus. Her accent color was navy, so she chose a satin navy ribbon to finish off her bouquet.

“Erin was wonderful to work with. I was afraid to buy faux flowers online and not get to see the quality of them. I did not want the “fake flower” look. I sent over some bouquets I liked and what I already had. Erin was wonderful with giving advice, listening to my likes and dislikes and sending pictures of ones she put together quickly without charging additional to do so. Her communication was top notch. She responded so fast and in a timely manner. She had it put together and shipped so fast. I absolutely love it and it doesn’t give off that “fake look”. I am super satisfied and definitely recommend. ”
— Sarah | Ohio

Sarah sent me this photo of her bouquet and one of the bridesmaid bouquets next to each other so you can see how well they work together.

Coral and Teal Silk Wedding Flowers - Reveal

, ,

Courtney reached out to me about creating custom silk wedding flowers with a slightly tropical vibe. Her colors were coral and teal and I used some sandier/taupe tones mixed in with white roses and greenery. Let’s take a look at some lovely images from Monica Mize Photography!

Courtney picked out a teardrop cascade shape for her bouquet. We filled it with Roses, Peonies, Ranunculus, mini Orchids, Seeded Eucalyptus and a spiky Succulent. It kind of reminded me of a Sea Anemone and was the perfect mix of mauve/peach for her bouquet!

What a great looking group! Courtney’s bridesmaids carried round handtied bouquets that were mostly coral and white with a pop of teal with a large Peony in the center. It kept everything cohesive and looked perfect with their dresses. Courtney also had a maid of honor wearing a dustier pink dress. At first we only had brighter coral flowers mixed in with the white and teal but then decided to add a more muted tone with some Toast Roses and it really helped blend Courtney’s bouquet with both color of bridesmaid dresses.

Courtney wanted all three colors incorporated into the boutonnieres so we used a white rose bud as the base with a few small coral orchids and a touch of teal accent flowers. Everyone matched!

Custom Silk Winter Wedding Flowers - Reveal and Review

, , ,

I hate to talk about winter when spring in Minnesota hasn’t really shown up yet. As I write this, we are on day 4 of rain, snow, and clouds. But, it’s never too early to think about your winter wedding and how you want to incorporate silk wedding flowers into your big day.

Darlena is my hero! She had a February wedding, in Duluth (it gets real cold up there by the way)! She had a vision for her wedding and bridal bouquet, and she made it happen. I was lucky enough to be able to provide the floral accents to her beautiful wedding. Her photographer was a friend and gave permission to share photos from the wedding. Let’s take a look!

Darlena’s bridal bouquet was a mix of white Roses, Carnations, Anemone, Queen Anne’s Lace and Foxtail. The greenery was a mix of Cedar, Olive Greens and Seeded Eucalyptus. And then to add a little something extra there were gold dipped Pinecones. This bouquet was a result of a few inspiration photos Darlena sent and working together to come up with a perfect custom look for her.

I got to make these really fun and classy aisle arrangements that featured big pinecones, roses and carnations and pine and cedar branches. The simple white ribbon finished the look perfectly!

“Erin was FANTASTIC to work with! She took what I saw on Pinterest and brought it to life! Definitely worth going to her! Thanks so much Erin!”

Today’s dose of joy and sweetness is brought to you by Kelly, the kind of sister everyone wants! Kelly contacted me about recreating her sister’s bridal bouquet. It was a striking combination of yellow roses, dark purple Iris, white Baby’s Breath and rhinestones. Here’s how it turned out!

“Erin was absolutely the best to work with. After I reached out to her about recreating my sisters wedding bouquet, she responded back almost immediately with answers to all my questions. The final product was way better than I ever could have imagined. It was beautiful, solid, and looked exactly like my sisters bouquet, even down to the rhinestones in the flowers and the pearls in the wrap. It was absolutely perfect. Erin kept in contact with me throughout the whole thing with pictures and tracking info when it was sent. I was amazed with how fast she made it and sent it. The flowers came in perfectly intact and unsquished. I am so glad I found her and I absolutely recommend her to anyone that needs flowers for a wedding or a recreation done.

Jewel Toned Summer Silk Wedding Flowers- Review and Reveal

, , ,

I love, love, loved doing these wedding flowers! Bride Catherine gave me her color palette and her permission to get creative with her bouquets, and her arrangements turned out stunning. These jewel toned summer silk wedding flowers were a mix of moody and bright colors with texture and greens for a unique look that worked for her summer wedding.

A huge thanks to these amazing images from their photographer Precious Pics!

Catherine’s handtied style round bridal bouquet was a mix of plum Tea Roses, navy Delphinium, yellow Ranunculus, orange Hydrangea, plum Poppies, orange Ranunculus, burgundy Roses, dusty pink Peonies, Blueberries and mixed greenery.

The bridesmaids carried clutch size bouquets with just a few of the flowers from the bridal bouquet, but in the same loose handtied style. All the bouquets were finished off with burlap wrap on the stems.

“I can’t say enough positive things about Love is Blooming. I had always loved the idea of a bold, jewel tone colored bouquet. However the quotes from local florists were wayyy out of our budget. I had almost given up when I came across Love is is Blooming. Erin was very responsive and did such good job listening to what I wanted while also adding in her own experience. The end result was exactly what I had been looking for at a fraction of the cost of a florist. She was even able to create a matching dog collar! I loved that I was able to get picture updates and make any adjustments before getting them and it was one less thing to have to worry about on the big day! Everyone, both guests and venue staff, at the wedding were shocked when they realized they were fake flowers as no one could tell until they were up close. Plus, my bridesmaids were so happy to be able to keep their flowers after the wedding. I am so incredibly grateful and highly recommend Love is Blooming to anyone looking for wedding flowers.”
— Catherine | Maryland

The groom’s boutonniere was a burgundy Rose, yellow Ranunculus, a bit of Hydrangea, Blueberries and matching greenery with a twine wrap on the stems.

Catherine had a lot of loved ones surrounding her on her big day and they all had a custom silk flower wedding arrangement. Even her precious pup got a custom silk flower dog collar to wear during the celebration.

Are jewel tones your jam? Love the moodier colors but getting married in the spring or summer? Let’s talk!

White Silk Wedding Flowers with Greenery- Part 2 Larger Scale Blooms

, ,

Earlier this week, I showed you some white silk wedding flowers with greenery that had a delicate, almost lacy look. Today is about impact and contrast! These weddings flowers and bridal bouquet used larger scale blooms to fill out the bouquets. The added greenery really stood out against all the white for an eye-catching look!

The bridesmaid bouquets were smaller versions of the bridal bouquet. All bouquets were wrapped with white satin ribbon.

Lavender, White and Silver Silk Wedding Flowers with Bling

, , ,

If you are looking for some silk wedding flowers and bouquets with a touch of bling, these are the photos for you! Emily’s color palette of lavender, white and silver were easy enough to work with, but I wanted to add a little extra ‘Oomph’ to her arrangements with some bling. Rather than just a few rhinestones here and there, I wanted it to be a statement. Take a look at what we designed together!

The bridal bouquet was a mix of lavender Roses, white Tulips, Baby’s Breath, and a little brighter lavender Spray Roses.

To give it a little more dimension, I add in some glittery, blingy branches to add texture, height and take it to the next level!

The bridesmaid bouquet was the same mix of flowers, but smaller and without the bling.

“I am extremely happy with the way my flowers turned out. When I was looking for flowers for my wedding, I was having trouble finding some that I like because I can be pretty picky. I am also a college student, so I don’t have a lot of money to spend on my wedding. I’m so glad I found this company! Not only were the prices fair, bur she also worked very closely with me to help me customize my flowers. I’m legally blind, so details can be a little hard for me to work with. I trusted her completely to put together a beautiful arrangement using my colors, and I am very happy with how they turned out. The communication was amazing as well. Not only did I receive pictures throughout the process, but also received quick replies when I reached out. When I physically received the flowers in the mail, I was so impressed by the texture. The flowers seemed so real, which is something I really wanted for my bouquet. Additionally, they were packaged very carefully and neatly. I would highly encourage anyone who is looking for beautiful flowers at a fairly cheap price to order from here!”

There were two boutonnieres, the groom and groomsman where I incorporated a small piece of the glitter branch in the groom’s to match the bridal bouquet.

Emily also wanted a few clusters of flowers on ribbon loops for her aisle arrangements. These are a great, and cost effective way to tie all your looks together, add a little more to your decor, but not break the budget.
