How Much Do I Need?

Calculating quantities can never be an exact science as one persons light scattering will be different from the next but here is our best estimate on petal quantities:

Quantities 

2 litres of petals is 7 to 8 good handfuls of petals.

Quantities are the same for preserved, freeze dried or dried petals.

Confetti Cones

1 litre of petals will fill 8 to 10 standard sized cones

2 litres will fill 16 to 20 cones

Aisles

For a light scattering of petals down a church aisle you will need 1 litre for every metre.

 

Petal Path

Based on a path 1 metre wide you will need:

 

Light scattering – 1 litre

Medium scattering – 2 litres

Veritable carpet – 3 litres

Tables 

 

On 5 ft diameter round tables 1 litre of petals will give you:

 

a light scattering (one handful) on 4 tables,

a medium scattering on 3 tables

a generous density 2 on tables.
