Glass hearts?

I am trying to find glass (looking) hearts in pink, and possible green and blue. I have seen them before, but can%26#039;t find them now. They are similar to the bags of colored round glass peices you can use in gardens, fish tanks or flower arrangements. I checked our craft store and they had none. Looked on ebay unsuccessfully. Anyone have any ideas where I could find them?

I found some on the above site (Also, I found some on ebay, but they are beads, by searching pink glass hearts on yahoo)





I don%26#039;t know what size you are looking for, the ones above are 30mm - $3 for 10, so can be a little pricy.





Good Luck!
Reply:I seen those at Walmart and Meijer%26#039;s. If you are patient to wait for ebay, you might get a better deal for them.

They have some links and shops that may be of help.

Help with purchacing wedding supplies!?

Help with purchacing wedding supplies!?

FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersEbay is a top choice of mine. I%26#039;ve found a lot of items them. Also, other top places are dollar stores, craft stores (i.e. Hobby Lobby, Jo-Ann Fabrics, Michael%26#039;s and Pat Catans). Try asking around on the Knot.com forums. People have used all different places to purchase items for the weddings. I know I have ordered from some places they suggested and had great results.





Places like Jo-Ann and Michael%26#039;s always have 40%-50% off coupons in the newspaper and online. So that helps you save too. I bought over 100 artificial flowers for center pieces at Pat Catan%26#039;s. I had to go to 2 or 3 stores to get all I needed, but at 65 cents and 75 cents a piece I am able to make some nice floral arrangements. At first I didn%26#039;t want artificial flowers, but after seeing some of them and the prices of live floral arrangements, I changed my mind. There are a lot of artificial flowers that look real (but keep in mind, the more real they look, the higher price they can be.) The ones I am using look nice even though they were so cheap. I am putting them in silver julep cups which I got from a wholesale place.
Reply:Ebay was quite helpful to me when I was planning my wedding. Congratulations and best wishes.

Reply:my friend went to craft stores for silk flowers and made her own bouquets and arrangements..i don%26#039;t personally like silk flowers, but they don%26#039;t look bad
Reply:Go to thrift and resale shops. No one would know unless you told them.
Reply:You know how most grocery stores have a floral department, well I found getting my bouquets there was A LOT cheaper than getting them from a florist. They can order almost any flower you want.
Reply:If you have a Garden Ridge craft store nearby, go there. They have an entire section of crafts and accessories dedicated to weddings and they are really cost effective. It%26#039;s a huge chain and should be easy to find on the internet.flower

Does anyone have any great theme ideas for my living room?

I need a change! I have doorway beads up and funky things hanging, dried flower arrangements, but it%26#039;s still a dark room, regardless of big picture windows! I need decorative help! Color schemes? Any ideas are more than welcome :) thanks!

FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersAs our tastes change, so do trends in decorating. It may still be best for you, and more practical to go with what YOU enjoy.





Any answers here may be the right answer, but CHOICE is up to you.





Brighter colors, in shades you most enjoy, textures that vary, faux finishes, sheers or verticals on the windows rather than drapes, better, or more adequate lighting.





Pastels work well, and can be mixed in varying shades without being offensive or clash too severely.





The 3 walls one and the 4th wall another color is a good suggestion.





Don%26#039;t over-do in anything. Keep the room simple enough to be comfortable. That said,,,certainly you could have a wall of books,,IE: Library style, an aquarium, move or change the furnishings so that at some point you are actually looking out the windows.





If you%26#039;re going to spend a majority of your time there, the room should be a calm place, an inviting place, though it need not be old timey cozy.





In the end, sugegsting colors to you:





Go to a home store, paint store, check out decorationg mags,,, even at a grocery market for ideas that are current, or traditional. Your choices will depend on what is already in your frame of referrence as to what you most enjoy.

Reply:Try painting with a lighter shade. Put up some nice crown molding.
Reply:Paint tip - Choose a color u like the most, and try to choose a cool color.. then, choose a lighter shade and a slight darker shade of the same color and get 3 walls painted with the lighter one and the 4th wall with the darker one.





Decoratives - hang lots of wind-chimes of the roof whr u hv a subsequent amount of vantilation.


Also, try to get the li%26#039;ll LEDs/tiny bulbs emitting silver/white light and stick %26#039;em up the roof high enough.





In the night when u shut all the lights off and turn on just these.. u%26#039;ll be amazed how it makes u feel under a completely star-studded sky but still comfortable, cozy and safe enough in your room!





Finally... name it %26quot;ThemeHome%26quot;.





That%26#039;s exactly the home and rooms I have. And I LOOOOVVVEEEE it!





Cheers!

Are there very specific signs that a guy is gay?

I have always thought a gay man would be a good match for a girl like me. I don%26#039;t know how to bake or cook, they tell me there is a difference. I%26#039;ve been the hag, knew I was, and didn%26#039;t care. Love being dressed up and taken to the party. So I have made it a policy to watch and not date men who do or don%26#039;t do the following and I need you to tell me if I am off or if a combination constitutes, or just one:





1. If there is body lotion or a facial moisturizer that is used in his bath


2. If I get really good flower arrangements (like Birds of Paradise)


3. If he gets angry and puts his hands on his hips


4. If he gives me style tips


5. If he owns throws, and there is not a blended fabric in his home


6. If his hands are maticulous


7. If he can tell me where he got his outfit and when


8. If I cannot find a Suave product in his house


9. If he has Christmas compilation CDs that he made





Please, I have dated so many gay men and I need this to stop. Thank you.

FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersYou have a real wit about you. I can tell that just from reading your question! If there is an ounce of seriousness here then you seem to be observant enough not to need anyone%26#039;s advice. All I would say is sexuality isn%26#039;t black and white it is a whole spectrum of colours and the stereotypical characteristics of sexuality no longer really seem to matter. The main thing is the you are getting what you want out of a relationship. if you%26#039;re not then pack up and get out! There%26#039;s nothing stopping you having a little fun on the way, but if you get too cautious or over analytical you%26#039;ll drive yourself crazy and never find a man!
Reply:High heels and a mustache at the same time could be a clue.
Reply:It is typical for a girl to fall for a gay man. We are sensitive to thier needs and can communicate with them on many levels most straight men can%26#039;t. I would tell you to find yourself a good sports bar and hang out there or other sporting events. While gay men do go to these they are not as common.
Reply:I am as gay as a picnic basket and I don%26#039;t meet ANY of those ridiculous criteria.
Reply:How funny. The truth is, you can never tell. Some men are just that way! What if they have a Martha Stewart Living on the coffee table?
Reply:5. 5 is the only certainty. Real men don%26#039;t have throws - whatever they are.

How do I dry sunflowers to use in a wreath?

I am growing sunflowers and would like to use them in flower arrangements, but specifically in a wreath. How do I dry them to keep their color, shape, etc.


Last year I tryed to dry them by cutting them off the stem and setting them in a shallow box in a warm climate. They molded.

spray with hairspray thoroughly
Reply:You might try setting them in a desiccant such as silica to dry. It takes awhile but is least likely to cause petal loss.





For seeds I hang my sunflower heads upside down in a dry place with good airflow.





I have also heard of places that will freeze-dry flowers for you. Not sure it would be worth it unless it was a bridal bouquet or you had a group-rate. To try this at home, fill an ice chest 1/2 way with dry ice. Set one sunflower head in a metal mixing bowl large enough to contain it. Close lid and wait. I have not tested this, but think 1/2 hour might be a good place to start. After freezing spray liberally with hair spray and hang upside down in a well-ventilated area free from moisture and humidity for one week. You might need to spray metal bowl with Pam first to avoid sticking.





Here is a site that tells how to dry flowers and protect them afterwards:

Reply:hang them up side down from a ceiling but not in the kitchen where there is humidity . they make not keep all there brightness but they will work . don%26#039;t keep them in water once picked as they will soak it all up and take longer to dry and might go mouldy .


this is the perfect weather to be drying flowers . good luck
