Rose petal confetti help...........i'm confused lol

poppyscorner

Have purchased confetti cones for our guests (80) I bought 40 black and 40 ivory

Was thinking of using black and ivory rose petals to fill them

What kind do you buy ? The venue states as long as its biodegradable you can have whatever you want

So do I buy silk (which I initially ruled out as I thought it wouldn't be biodegradable) paper or freeze dried ?

I know it's a daft thing to be thinking about but don't want to buy the wrong thing lol

I also don't know how much I need these are the cones http://shop.confetti.co.uk/product/black-cones-10-pack/68796/
and http://shop.confetti.co.uk/product/ivory-confetti-cone/59824/

How much will I need to do 40 of each

TIA xx

Biodegradable ones tend to be real so you get freeze dried petals that can either be rose or even delphinium. https://www.shropshirepetals.co.uk - they also advise on how much you would need. You can't get black roses btw.

Can anyone explain how much a litre of rose petals is?! It seems the oddest measurement! I'm looking for enough rose petals to go down either side of the aisle and then to fill around 30 small cones.

Imagine a plastic jug that you'd have in the kitchen. I reckon you'd need more then one litre, probably quite a few to fill the cones. Depends on how much you want to cram them in!
