Sorry girls I took so long to post this- A while back I posted a little trial one and well since then I changed things up a bit- we bought white organza circle things and a light and dark pink tulle to put for the almonds. I am posting a pic for you guys!!!
We already did 125 of them and we need 225 It takes alot of work and patience but they are coming along great- FH does the ribbon and flower while I put the circle and almonds together
They came out so nice!!!!!!!!!!!! Good work.. are ur finger killn gyou?

Got ya covered chick.. tOld wives tale says that we have to use od numbers only. 3, 5 or 7. if it is an even number then it means seperations is on theway.. stupid but hey it keeps the tradition going!!

Italian wedding tradition dictates that 5 almonds be given to each guest to symbolize health, wealth, happiness, fertility and long life.
