Hello Ladies!! Rebecca here with our first Floral Matters of 2014. Even though we are still officially in Winter, you can add a touch of spring to your home with simple flowers.
Visit your local grocery store and pick up a few bunches of flowers and make a beautiful masterpiece. I chose yellow tulips, yellow spider mums, orange lilies, pink asters, and greens.
What to do!!
- Take your flowers out of packaging and trim away the bottom leaves on the stems. Grab a simple vase and add fresh water and flower food.
- Start arranging flowers by adding your greens first. You will probably need to cut down the greens just a bit. Adding the greens first will allow for your other flowers to stay positioned where you put them. Starting with a triangle I positioned the tulips, and then added orange lilies between the tulips. In the middle of the arrangement positioned at a higher point add another stem of orange lily.
- Next add the spider mums and then fill out with the pink asters.I personally like a little different finish or personal touch. I added the bare grass asymmetrically and added a touch of curly willow.
