TOOLS TO HAVE ON HAND

I picked up a bushel of roses that were from my local grocer to make my floral arrangement.

STEP 1

Think outside the box of what you can use for floral arrangements or centerpieces. Little, petite dishes such as my red compote dish or even a small votive candle holder.

STEP 2

I cut the stems off to the depth of my dish and just started adding each stem to make the arrangement as full as I wanted. Don’t forget to add water to enjoy your roses for days!

STEP 3

– Vary flower heights intentionally – Place tall stems strategically – Use odd number blooms – Rotate vase while arranging – Mix textures and greenery – Keep colors simple cohesive – Trim stems different lengths
