Silk Flower Pomanders

I was orginally going to do tissue paper pomanders in order to save money. I loved the first one I did but realized it wasn't going to hold up very well til October. My FMIL told me Hobby Lobby was having 50% off flowers last week so I went and got a few stems to play with and LOVED THEM! I hot glued them to the styrofoam ball along with the ribbon I used. They are nice because you can kind of space them out and fluff them to fill in the gaps.

I got the styrofoam balls at Michael's and used the 50% of one item coupon they had last week and got each ball for $1.87 then my stem of flowers came with 12 heads on it and it was $5.99 at Hobby Lobby. I used two spools of the gross grain 2/$3 sale at Michaels and two spools of the glitter dot ribbon $1.00ea at Michaels. And I got a 12 pack of pew hangers at Hobby Lobby 50% off for $5.00.

We have 17 pews in our church on each side. So we are going to put one on every 3rd row and alternate the colors. We will have 2 pews with the multi colored flowers and 3 of the brownish-orange color.
