Every time I see yours I remember when ours slept like that. How's he doing? I loved how they slept for hours in the oddest spots. I showed my fiance your puppy pics and he was like, "Oh!! Look at the wrinkled paw!" I miss that! Ours grew out of the wrinkled paws! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you were an ocean, I'd learn how to float.

GarysBride Cut Rock Total Posts: 313 Last Post: 6/16/2008 Member Since: 5/7/2006	Ok well im just going to guess I think the flowers are yellow chrysanthemums that are still in bloom if that makes sense thats probably why there small and greenish too. I never could remember all those flowers! He still gives me butterflies.....

jorman Ideal Rock Total Posts: 658 Last Post: 6/27/2007 Member Since: 7/15/2004	They are called Pom-poms and you can have them dyed to any color. I love the lime green ones though. The best part is they are cheap and that picture looks like they used black straight pins to attach the flowers to a pillow or oasis. Very cute! I love your little weiner dog avatars too! I grew up with le weens (as my family calls them) and my mom still has two. They are hilarious and so so so cute when they are little with all their wrinkle and stumbly walking! Awwww~ Garysbride- does yours still have puppy breath? -Janna

Seems easy enough to do, although I guess you'd have to get the flowers dyed by someone first. I'm already thinking ahead of ways to save money...once I get engaged, of course.

Wait... we're not inviting kids. Oh well! Ha ha, me too! (Actually we are having kids - two flower girls - but no ring bearer.) It's wrong for the groom to carry the rings up on a pompom pillow, right?

AmberWaves Ideal Rock Total Posts: 3,418 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 10/19/2005	Well, since our colors are wine,cream,gold and chocolate brown, I suppose it could be any color! Maybe wine flowers with a chocolate satin ribbon? * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you were an ocean, I'd learn how to float.

jorman Ideal Rock Total Posts: 658 Last Post: 6/27/2007 Member Since: 7/15/2004	Yeah- when you order them from the florist, request a color chart that you can pick from. They can either dye them before they arrive to the florist or the florist can spray dye them any color. I love the wine pom pom idea with gold ribbon too. You will probably need about 100 pom poms, but I would order 125 just in case come are ugly or squashed. About 4-6 good sized pom poms come on one stem, so you will need about 32 stems (if you round up). If you order them ahead of time, you should get a good locked price. Don't forget your straight pins!!! I bet you could find nice gold pins. Send pictures if you do this!

jorman Ideal Rock Total Posts: 658 Last Post: 6/27/2007 Member Since: 7/15/2004	I would recommend wet oasis. Order your poms, and ask for a large block of wet oasis. Cut the oasis (while it is dry) to the desired shape & thickness. Fill your kitchen sink with cool water and set the oasis on top of the water. It is important that you let it soak itself. Do NOT push the oasis into the water or hold it under. Once soaked. Pull the oasis out of the water and let it drip. It should be fully saturated and slightly heavy. In order to prevent your ring bearer from having a wet tux, I would wrap the oasis in a large ziplock before inserting the flowers. This will help deflect any water dripping. Set the oasis on a large platter. Cut the pom pom stems at an angle and leave about 1/2 inch to 1 inch of stem. Stab the pom poms into the wet oasis and attach with a straight pin. I advise going in a pattern one line at a time so that the entire block of oasis is covered. Cover front, back and all four sides. Once covered tie your ribbon. Refrigerate until ready to use.. The pom poms with last 2-3 days (sometimes longer) without rewatering. You don't have to cover the oasis in plastic, but could have the ring bearer carry the pillow on a plate or something to prevent water from dripping. Simply tie the ribbon around the plate too. This will keep the pillow from sliding all around.

I know that if it was Woofie, our dog, he'd have shaken that thing off in an instant, or flipped over on his back to remove it. I assume other dogs are more tolerant! * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * If you were an ocean, I'd learn how to float.
