Is it pressed or a shadow box? It's lovely!
If it is a shadow box - it doesn't look that wide...how did they do it?

Re: I've been reunited with my bouquet!

It's kind of weird the way they did it - it looks like they chopped my bouquet in half lengthwise or something, and then pressed it up against the back of the shadow box.
And the shadow box is actually pretty wide - it's 16' wide but you can't really tell since I took the picture at an angle (I had to otherwise you'd see me in the reflection of the glass!) The shadow box is also 5' deep.
I only have one minor complaint about my bouquet - I thought that it would look pretty life-like after they freeze dried the flowers, but it looks more like it was dried the traditional way (hung upside down). The white roses turned yellowish, just like they would when you dry them yourself.
For the amount of money that I paid, I expected the flowers to look fresher. Oh well, I do love the way it looks; it's just not exactly what I expected. I love having it back though! What a pretty memento
