...rose petals

10 ways with Rose petals

"My love is like a red, red rose that's newly sprung in June."  Whatever the season, or whatever the reason - from a candle lit dinner for two, an exceptional wedding, a special birthday, a Christening or even a Christmas table, rose petals will add the perfect finishing touch and provide instant splendour to any occasion.

   

There are a countless ways to use them on your special day to create an attractive look, but we have chosen our top ten favourites to get your inspiration flowing:

  Scatter on tables - with rose petals available in so many colours now you can match them to the colour scheme for your occasion, such as white or pink for a romantic wedding look, or red for a romantic Valentine's day meal
  Rose petals are perfect for lining a path with.  They can be sprinkled down the aisle, guide the way to the marquee or even rather naughtily to the bedroom!
  For indulgent confetti, fill confetti cones or petal bags and shower a newly-wed couple with real rose petals.  Make sure the photographer is on hand to capture the moment!
  Petals scattered generously around a church candle are a simple way of creating beautiful centrepieces and can help save money on floral displays
  Wicker baskets trimmed with ribbon and filled with rose petals are a great alternative to bouquets for flower girls
  Use rose petals in colours to match your colour scheme, to decorate a cake or cupcakes.  But please note that while the rose petals may look good enough to eat, they are not edible!
  Float freeze-dried rose petals in a bowl of water, along with some floating candles, for a soft romantic centrepiece
  Using freeze-dried rose petals, freeze them (again!) in either individual ice-cubes for indulgent looking champagne or within an ice-block for a glamorous winter wonderland themed occasion
  Put inside clear balloons for a dramatic effect.  If you slightly wet the inside of the balloons, the petals will stick to the edges.  Or simply leave the balloons dry for a more floaty effect.  If you are planning on wetting the balloons, remember to use freeze-dried petals
  A vase or glass bowl filled with rose petals can make a stunning centrepiece.  Alternatively, for a decadent table setting, place a few rose petals into each guest's empty wine glass.  When they come to pour the wine, the petals tipped onto the table will add to the indulgence of the setting
