I saw the clouds at a restaurant and knew I wanted them. My only hang up is that batting only comes in white (I think) and white clouds in a white tent isn’t very exciting.
I think even if you don’t do lit up pomanders during the wedding you should take a picture when you are making them so we can all oooh about it (or at least me).

Hmmm…glowing things are pretty…that could look really cool, especially against the stark brick barn, you’re awesome! I love the cloud idea!

I was asking cause I think glowing things are pretty, but also cause I was thinking of making clouds out of quilt batting and sticking a light in them. However I am a little iffy on the sticking a light in part.
Also I think most of the instruction I have seen for pomanders have been for using styrofoam balls instead of paper lanterns. I like the paper lanterns better, I just had never thought of using them before.

Ms. Sparrow- I wasn’t thinking I would since the space already has spotlights over the dance floor, but it wouldn’t hurt to experiment with it, right?

Also, my parents visited the museum and saw our (potential)wedding space this weekend. They loved it, and said it was the funkiest place ever. Can’t wait to tour it next month!

I cannot wait to see this. Were you planning on lighting them up?
