I've been slacking in posting things lately! It seems when a semester starts work consumes all. Well this summer I got a few wedding things done including the centerpieces!
My inspiration was our "tea party" theme and a few images I found while rooting around. (Example (http://www.petalpushersindy.com/*site/scaled-images/web/images/photos/CapodimonteTeapotBouquet-jpg-450x450.jpg))
And though not nearly so fancy, here is what I was able to come up with:

A bit bright with the flash on, they aren't so very lime green. But without flash it's a bit hard to see the details as well.

And the bouquet from the top.

I can't recall what website I got the teapots off of but they are 2 cup teapots in a light green. Approximately $5.75 a piece since I bought in bulk (12 of them) for a total of $69.06. The flowers I found at Save-on-Crafts, being discontinued. They were approximately $2.70 each, for a total of $32.83. As a note, I say approximately on the price because it includes shipping costs.
So overall for 12 centerpieces I spent about $102. Which means approximately $8.45 a piece. Not bad, in my opinion. I'm planning on pink table cloths to set them on.
