How many blooms? Most Bloombeads jewelry can be created from the petals in a standard bloom. The flower we use as an example is a rose. A standard tea rose will have enough petals to make 2-3 beads. We recommend sending one (1) flower for each color you would like included in each piece of jewelry. Bead bracelets - send 2-3 standard blooms for each color to be included. Rosaries - send 5-7 blooms of each color to be included. Feel free to call with any questions about quantity of flowers.
