Who says artificial flowers have to be tacky???

I found these beautiful peach peonies and burnt orange roses at the Hobby Lobby about an hour from where we live. All the other places I looked at, artificial flowers were very pricey and for something that's probably going to wind up in a dumpster some day, I wasn't willing to fork out the money that some places (Michaels, Joannes, Walmart, Target, Ocean State Job Lots...) were asking for them. But THESE beauties...cost me $20 altogether.

This is the finished product! I added in some artificial sunflowers that were $3 for 16 of them as well as $1 artificial berries. I added in the pheasant feathers that I already had from prior wedding crafting that were left over, with the exception of my bouquet in the middle which has real feathers from the birds that Justin hunted in the past.
Not too shabby, eh?
