What is this called

[FLgirl41]

ok I can''t not figure out what these are called. I know there is a technical name for them. I think it starts with a "P". What I am talking about in the picture below is the hanging balls in the isle. But I am thinking of hanging rose balls. What are they called?????

I believe it''s called a "pomander"!

Boy, does that ever sound dirty!!

Who came up with THAT name, I'd like to know!!

 

[zoebartlett]

Yeah, I''ve always called them kissing balls too. Why are they named that? Musey, get your mindout of the gutter.

Oh shush, you know you were all thinking it!

I think pomanders are made out of flowers and kissing balls are made out of greenery. But they''re essentially the same thing. K-Bs I think got their name because they used to me made out of greenery like mistletoe and you would kiss under the misteltoe or kissing ball.

Here, they are pomanders.

They are super-cute, and great for kids to carry.

I''m having them for my two 4 year old flowergirls, then hoops for the 8 year olds and a proper bouquet for the 12 year old.
