choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 1


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 2


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 3


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 4


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 5


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 6


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 7


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 8


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 9


choose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 10





10 combinations there, for each ribbon color = 50 combinations





for each type of flower = 150 combinations





but really you can combine types of flowers (1, 2, 3, 1+2, 1+3, 2+3) so for each type of flower is really 250 combinations.





Then you have 2 bases so 500 combinations.
