Flower Bouquet

Directions:

1. Cut the floral foam sheet into a block that will fit tightly inside of the box. Make sure to use floral foam designed for artificial flowers.

2. Prep the silk flowers by cutting the stems with the wire cutters. (I used about 30 flowers for this project.) The length of the stems should be slightly shorter than the height of the box.

3. Starting at one corner, insert one flower at a time into the foam. The stems don't have to go all the way through the foam, but just enough to be able to stand vertically.

4. Continue adding flowers row by row across the box. I like to place flowers by order of their size: large, small, large, small, etc.

5. Fill any empty spaces with greenery or smaller flowers, and then shift and fluff the flowers to make sure the arrangement looks full.

6. Finally, tie the ribbon into a bow around the middle of the box for decoration.

And that's it! This beautiful arrangement can be customized to feature the person's favorite flowers and colors. So get creative and design the perfect gift for your loved one. And the best part is that you can display the flower bouquet box year round. Use it as a table centerpiece or home or office decor.
