Flower Power



Here is a good and simple way to arrange flowers. I take a handful of one kind of flower,( I used lilac, tulips and narcissus) and bunch it together at the top and all of the stems line up even . I take a little bit of raffia and tie them to hold them into place, you can also use a rubber band. It is good to have two or three of the same kind of flowers. As you can see I did two of each and there are about ten stems per bunch. That is important.. Then I just get a large vase, or pitcher and cut them down even and arrange them with each flower opposite of their variety. Very simply, and you cannot go wrong.I promise.

that's so pretty. I have a lilac, but they don't like to bloom this far south. I've had it for three years- nothing so far. But what a gorgeous arrangement!
