How To Create Four Flower Arrangements from One Single Arrangement

Hello Dear Readers!

I love Monday Morning Blooms with my wonderful Bloom Friends:

Lidy of FrenchGarden House

Mary of Home Is Where The Boat Is

Pam of Everyday Living

If you are not aware of our Monday Morning Blooms, which takes place

every first and third Monday of the Month,  you can see

my: Blue Transferware Flower Arrangement that I created this past Monday.

I took the last large flower arrangement that I created and transformed it

into 4 petite flower arrangements.

So join me in:

How To Create Four Flower Arrangements

From One Single Arrangement

This was the original arrangement:

 

 

The flower arrangement contained Blue and White Hydrangeas, Irises,

Calla lillies and Snapdragons.

I chose the Calla Lillies and Snapdragons

for their slender shape to create this one:

 

 

This particular arrangement was delivered to a friend under the weather.

Love being able to bring someone some “happy”!

The original large flower arrangement

contained both blue and white hydrangeas.

I placed the white ones in this blue and white container

that sits on a side table next to the sofa.

 

 

I felt that Irises are so pretty just in a simple vase such as this antique

etched glass vase that I purchased at an auction.

 

 

 

So now I was left with the blue hydrangeas.

They were placed into a very sweet ironstone pitcher.

 

 

This sits on my bedside table:

 

 

When I make a single large flower arrangement for an occasion or an event.

After the event, I often take the arrangement off the table

and create smaller ones.

That way,  multiple rooms can be freshened up with pretty flowers.

 

My Flag Arrangement in a blue and white sugar bowl.

Perfect for Memorial Day and 4th of July.

 

You can see the entire table of blue and white transferware with the theme

of Red, White, and Blue HERE.

I will be spending the long Memorial Day weekend with family…

always a good thing!

So how about you?….traveling or staying home and enjoying the long weekend?

Talk about celebrating Memorial Day … For all those courageous and brave

men and women who serve, has served,

and those who made the ultimate sacrifice

for our Country . . . we thank you!!!

Have a most beautiful day and Happy Memorial Day Weekend!

    What a wonderful way to share and enjoy your flowers! I’m sure your recipient was thrilled to receive your beautiful gift of the snaps and calla lilies, tied up with a pretty bow. My heart beats Red, White and Blue and your flags in your sugar bowl make the perfect arrangement to celebrate Memorial Day! Stay cool, it’s going to be a hot one!

    Flower arrangement is not really my forte, but it’s nice to have a good flower decoration inside the house.
