roses

This is what I got from the Valentine's raffle at work today. Incredible really - they are made of wood. Balsam wood I think, the very thin stuff that some model planes and such are made of. There are about 15 of them in a pretty glass vase. What a fun day!

Balsa wood roses? How cool! They'll last longer that way too. :)

Those are gorgeous! I thought they were real, too! I know someone was happy to get that incredible cinnamon bread at the raffle.

What a great prize in the raffle - you don't need to worry about watering them or anything! They're a beautiful colour, and I like the focus on the central 'flower'

These are gorgeous. Love the color variations, and we have some of them too. It's amazing how much detail they can achieve.
