    thrifty flower arranging

    Uncategorized


    i got a pack of 6 clear glass wine bottles from the brewing section of my local store, but this can be done with clear empty wines bottles you have at home. then i filled each one with a few flowers and stood them in a row, they look really pretty all put together. i am going to try and tint them next.

      What a simple but great way to display flowers! Thanks for sharing that idea with us! Tinting the bottles is fun and they look so pretty in a window with the sum coming thru them.

      Lovely, Aimeee!
      Alternative flower displays attract more attention than vases (in my opinion).
      They make me smile and appreciate the beauty of simplicity.
      I also like that you chose carnations which are under-appreciated although they look and smell lovely and (not the least important) last long.
      I'm so pinning this.
      Cheers
