The great thing about living in the present is that you can
go back to the past for ideas. Take this flower arrangement. It
could very well have come from a vintage magazine or book. It’s
just the right thing for a 50's table. Its easy to do and requires
very few flowers.
Supplies:
- an old wire basket, preferably shallow, with open sides.
- One block of floral oasis, dampened
- one bunch of baby’s breath
- one bunch of greenery (we used silal, readily available from
any florist)
- several each blue and yellow spider mums (any bright, retro
flower will do)
Place the floral oasis in the centre of the basket. Insert the greenery
first around the edges and then into the centre of the oasis. Next,
add pieces of baby’s breath at random throughout the arrangement.
The crowning step, place the spider mums (or which ever flower you
choose) at random throughout the arrangement. Done! Colourful, gorgeous
and inexpensive! |
