Out of the Box Flower Arrangements

Put on your florist apron and prepare to create an arrangement that looks like it came just from the flower shop! It is not your usual arrangement, BUT that makes it all the better. :) The drawback of this project is price, it's not a budget craft. It is perfect for a party though! I made this for a table centerpiece to use at a party. It is so simple that I just had to share with you all! (Come back tomorrow for pictures of the party!!...you won't want to miss the looks of this very cool party!)

Supplies needed:
Kitchen shears
round flower foam
50 carnations (yep, 50!!!)

First wet the foam globe thoroughly.

Then pat on a package of the flower preservative powder over the whole globe.

Cut the stems off of the carnations leaving about an inch left.

Gently stick each carnation into the foam globe around the entire circumference. Next line the circumference again but this time do it crosswise.

Now just finish filling in the four gaps with flowers until it's complete!

There you go! Isn't it adorable? :) Don't forget to see the rest of the table HERE.
