Ok so after getting the prices from the florist. I've decided to make my own centerpieces. I plan on doing something similar to the picture but I plan on adding the submersible lights and marble in the glass. So I've been searching trying to save money and I first found my vases on craigslist 24 for $70. That's the vase in the picture. Then I just checked again this week and I'm buying a 20lb bag of marbles for $10 and 25 lights for .75 cents a piece. I started to use the flowers in the pic but everyone says they look too fake :( so I'm going to buy real carnations. What do you think.
