In 2003, artist Anna Schuleit was commissioned to create a massive public art installation called Bloom at the Massachusetts Mental Health Center (MMHC) which was slated for demolition. Nearly 28,000 potted flowers filled almost every square foot of the MMHC including corridors, stairwells, offices and even a swimming pool for the showcase.
following this tutorial: http://www.marthastewart.com/269341/crepe-paper-roses, i found on martha stewart’s site—i was able to finally create one, gigantic, crepe paper, flower for my wedding “bouquet”!!
my friends will each carry their own as well. i love them! they are so fun, and look great together. really glad we invested in crepe paper. definitely an inexpensive, charming alternative to flowers.
