How to Make Floral Bookends Materials:

● 2 alike Glass Containers
● Floral Foam
● Bunches of Small Flowers – one small floral, one wispy
● Glue Gun
● Hot Glue
● Wire Cutters

How to Make Floral Bookends Instructions:

Cut floral foam to fit inside both of your glass containers. Hot glue each piece of foam in place in each of the glass containers. If you need weight to make the glass container heavier, now is the time to add the glass or rocks.

Measure your flowers against the glass container. Decide how much of the stem to take off, and clip. This is 2 sets of flowers with leaves, 1 set of leaves.

 Insert the flowers into the foam on a diagonal across the foam. Make sure one side of the flowers is slightly lower than the other side.

Repeat for the second glass container.

Clip down wispy flowers to fill the holes. You are measuring short and longer pieces. And everything is in twos as you are trying to make the floral arrangement as close to a duplicate as possible.

Insert floral into the foam to fill the holes. Tug the floral so it appears to overlap each flower, and all holes are filled in.

Repeat the process for the second glass container.

You can hot glue the flowers into the floral foam (we didn’t).

Tweak the wispy floral pieces to fill in any spaces.
