Default ******** cones

Has anyone made their own?? Thinking of buying some pretty paper, making cones, filling with ********/petals, then having an usher handing to guests of their way out of the ceremony, to use outside (weatherpermitting)!

Could fill small basket with them.

They are so pricey to buy for what they are!!

Its written in to the Groovy software that C o n f e t t i doesn't print out, its down to daft early legal things that the website of that same name put on Groovy when it first started

A friendof mine made her own (correction, her bridesmaid made them for her) and they looked great - I certainly wouldn't have known they were home made rather than bought.

Then how about making your own paper ******** with mulberry paper and a paper punch? I went a wedding last year where the bridesmaids had made all fo the ******** using a heart shaped punch and 3 different colours of pink mulberry paper, it looked just as good as petals in the end

Totally nothing to do with your discussion, but I have been looking at this for days (the thread title) and assuming someone was REALLY angry with cones.....
