There is nothing like a simple flower arrangement to brighten up the kitchen table! I found this beautiful milk can and couldn’t resist making a farm house flower arrangement! Grab some flowers and make one with me.<\/p>\n

Thanks for your support!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n Start by freeing the flowers from the plastic wrapping and rubber bands they come in and fill the glass vase with water and flower food.<\/p>\n I wasn’t sure the milk can would be water tight so I used a vase inside. If your vessel is water tight the inner vase won’t be necessary.<\/p>\n Center the glass vase in the milk can. The flowers will only be arranged inside of it.<\/p>\n Before arranging the flowers remove all the leaves from the lower stems. These flowers don’t have thorns, so you can gently pinch the stem up high and run your fingers down the stem to remove all the leaves.<\/p>\n Do this for all stems.<\/p>\n Trim the stems at an angle. Your stems should be about 1 1\/2 times taller than the vase (the milk can in this case). Leave the Gerber daisies a little longer than the mums so they pop out.<\/p>\n Place the mum bunches first. These will define the shape of the arrangement.<\/p>\n I layered in the mums with three angled \u00a0outward and one standing upright in the center. This arrangement does not use foam or a flower frog to hold the flowers in place. The mums will form a support structure of stems. Place the first stem in at an angle\u00a0then turn the vase and lay the next stem on top at an angle, rotate and repeat. This will build a network \u00a0of support as more flowers are added.<\/p>\n Fill in between the mums with baby’s breath stems. I tucked these in a little deeper into the arrangement allowing the mums to pop against a soft white background.<\/p>\n Now add splashes of peach Gerbs both up high and a few lower for balance.<\/p>\n Continue to turn the vase and tweak the flowers until you’re satisfied with the look. \u00a0A soft ribbon can be added to the neck of the milk can if you want.<\/p>\n This is a loose casual arrangement perfect for any farm table!<\/p>\nSupplies<\/h2>\n
