    I would like to put my flowers together myself but can't decide on wood or foam. Has anybody else chosen one or the other and what did you think?
    Thanks all xx

    I don't think I've seen wooden ones before.. I personally like the look of foam. Would foam flowers be easier to arrange? x

    Never heard of or seen wooden ones before. I am getting foam ones as I think they look gorgeous and you can get them quite cheap. They would probably be quite cheap to put together too! x

    iv seen the wooden scented ones... but only the roses...

    but i think the foam ones look more natural... and i think there is a wider choice available....

    I'm using foam for mine, they are really easy to manipulate and put together as you want them. Only downside is they fade in the sun (so make sure you store them well!) and you need to be careful when buying as the sizes can vary by quite a lot.

    I've not seen the wooden ones, but it could be a very alternative bouquet if you wanted to do something different.

    Thanks everyone! I've done some more searching and the foam ones are definately easier to get hold of so it looks like foam! Now I just have to buy the stuff and attempt putting them together haha wish me luck

    At first I thought wooden ones might sound a bit nasty, but searching them they look OK actually. I am impressed.

    That's what I thought Velcro when I saw them, and you can easily get them to match colour schemes.
