She also has some money-saving ideas for flowers other than roses, which can be costly during this holiday. Daisies are very inexpensive and very beautiful, especially when you can find them in your sweetheart's favorite color. Add a few fake bumblebees from the craft shop or include a small memento of your relationship to further personalize the bouquet. Just using a few favorite flowers may be more expensive than daisies, but it only takes a few to make a full arrangement. Curl some balloon string around the stem of the vase for a quick decorative flair.
Baby roses instead of traditional long-stemmed roses are a big hit.
They have lots of blooms on them and look adorable in a miniature vase. These roses are usually two to three times less expensive than long-stemmed roses, and only a few stems are needed to fill a vase. All kinds of shapes are possible and the materials are inexpensive, so let your imagination take over. Use cookie cutters to cut out Styrofoam shapes to create all sorts of decorations that can be painted and placed on skewers, then inserted into a vase along with flowers. Fill the bottom of the bowl with pebbles, fill with water and drop the floating candles on top.
