Did you really go out and gather everything for this swag? We have 44 lantern centerpieces so could you use like berry & fall leaf sprays from say Michael's or Hobby Lobby to do this? We've never made a fall swag before so do you have any tips or a more detailed description on how you made this fall swag lantern? Thanks! ❤Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12735253279457852491noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7201476158505077804.post-51786446209443032532015-10-12T12:40:08.198-05:002015-10-12T12:40:08.198-05:00Oh, Michelle

If so, how are stems secured in the swag to keep them together? Is there some styrofoam or is everything attached to the bow. It seems like a lot of embellishments to attach to the bow. Thanks Sara.
