"You can never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore."- Christopher Columbus

I am always looking for ways to express my creativity, so when my friend Kisha asked me to help decorate a bridal shower she was hosting I think I said "yes" before she could finish asking me! LOL. The theme: Roses are Red and we decided to add touches of sexy and dainty accents with the lace and pearls. The Bride-To-Be's name is Mahogany so I made a "M" out of silk roses to greet the guess as they come in and signed the guess book. The beautiful rose topiaries you see here are made from felt circles and I got the inspiration from  The Idea Room's Heart Felt Wreath post .  Easy to make but very time consuming. I added pearl corsage pins to the balls to tie in the pearls draping from the glass cylinder that are wrapped in black ace trim. Glass votive wrapped with black lace over red ribbon.  I made the rose pens for the guess to use for the bridal shower games.  This craft very was easy to make. Buy  roses, cut steams but leave about 1-2 inches
