Spring is so close I can almost touch it! Even if it is really cold outside right now, I can bring spring indoors with a simple flower arrangement AND do it for under $15. <\/span>I love having fresh flowers around the house, but am never willing to part with $40 for an arrangement.<\/span> First of all make a visit to your local grocery store, yes you heard me, the grocery store. There are gems waiting for you there. We have a couple grocery stores in town and I\u2019ve scouted them all out for the best quality and great prices. \u00a0You should do the same! For now, ignore the pre-arranged flowers and go straight for the single flower type bundles. I chose white mums and green ball dianthus. If you can\u2019t find dianthus, a green button mum would give you the same feel.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Please Note: Some of the links below are affiliate links for products I love!

Thanks for your support!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n As soon as you get home from the store cut at least an inch off the bottoms of your flowers at a 45 degree angle and put them in a bucket of cool water.<\/p>\n A note about floral foams. It is important that you get foam meant for fresh arrangements and not for silk flowers. One will soak up water and the other won’t.<\/span><\/p>\n Fill your tub with a couple inches of water. I used a shoe snap tub. And place your floral foam block in the water. Don\u2019t push the block under water, instead lay it on top and let it sink. This gives the foam enough time to soak the water all the way through. If you push it under you can end up with a dry spot in the center and you don\u2019t want that. Floral foam can only be used once, so only soak as much as you need.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I purchased these cube vases at my local dollar store for $1 each. Score! They are about 3\u201d tall. Be sure to take any stickers off your glass and remove and residue. From my time as an event planner, I have come to know the greatness that is Goo Gone. it does wonders for removing sticky residue. I put a little on the sticker that wouldn\u2019t come off and rubbed it with a towel. Viola! No more gunk on the pretty glass. Goo Gone is a little oily, so wash with a little soap if need be.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n
