I have been using pinto beans for my cookie bouqets, but it seems like even beans have gone up in price. Wondering what other things people use might be cheaper.

I've also been using bags of beans but i've read here that people use small rocks or pebbles.
Don't you wish they made some sort of a paper weight just for bouquets? That'd be great!

Well I guess I will stick with pinto beans, according to internet, sams has some for 25.00 for 50 lb bag. Can't beat that.

I buy river rocks or grey stone from Home Depot in huge bags cheap! It does have to be washed though--but easy enough, I rinse it in a colandar.
