    Question Anyone else crafting cemetary bouquets this weekend?

    Every year during Memorial Day weekend I make new cemetary bouquets for several family graves at a nearby cemetary.  I make a red, white, and blue one with a flag for DH's dad, who was a veteran, and the rest all match each other.  This year the rest of them will have miniature roses in purples and pinks.

    So far all I've done is buy the flowers.  I need to dig around in my craft supplies tonight and find some ribbon and floral foam to get these put together.   This cemetary is a memorial gardens, meaning that the markers are flat plaques with only one flower vase allowed on each one--  which makes it easy for me to do flower arrangements. 

    Is anyone else doing this this weekend?

    Mine are all done, Mom & I work on these together.
    We will be taking them to the cemetary tomorrow.
    We make a few Saddles and some just single bouquets.

    We have already planted flowers on all the graves, last week.

    Our cemetary does not allow artificial flowers after April 15.

    We did our Children...My Mom & Dad & My Grandparents.

    Soon we will have to go to Hancock & do Jim's Family.
