In 2011 we worked with the Nordstroms Wedding Suite to create bouquets and accent flowers for their display windows for Nordstroms stores across the country. Hundreds of bouquets and little accent flowers for their cake-shaped hats were made from  "I love you" paper and accented with a rich pink color and ivory pearl centers.                   Kate Cusack worked tirelessly with us to get the flowers just right for their displays.                                              Customize your own set of 50 here!                                         Contact: Dana@danaspaperflowers.com
