Floral Arrangements


I learned this beautiful flower vase arrangement from my sister. Total time to make this is less than 30mins and a beautiful center piece is ready to be placed on the dining table or in living room.


Items Required:
  1. A Vase or Basket
  2. Stem cutter
  3. Glue gun
  4. Glue sticks
  5. Knife
  6. Styrofoam
  7. Super moss
  8. Artificial flowers and leaves/stems (of our choice) and
  9. Few pins to stick the moss to the foam.

Instructions:
  1. Cut the Styrofoam to the shape of the bottom of the vase/basket. Glue it to the base of the vase. Fill the foam in the basket till 3/4th full.
  2. Place the moss on top of the foam and stick pins so that moss will stick to the foam and will not fall off.
  3. Now take the flowers and stems, cut them to desire length and insert into the moss to fill the basket.

Here are some creations from my sister -




We can make these beautiful bowls real quick either with natural/artificial flowers and need little enthusiasm and interest.
