How-To

• Small, flat tin bucket with handle
• Various dried fall flowers or realistic-looking artificial stems, berries, or fall floral picks
• Alternatives: Set your arrangement into a small vase to display next to a kitchen sink. Or make a larger version to hang on a door or over a mantel.

 

1. Fill your container with dried flowers, grasses, wheat, or assorted greens, using the tallest stems in the back and the shortest in the front to build the arrangement.
2. Simply set the flowers into the container. Or secure them into a block of floral foam or into sand.
3. Allow heavier pods to hang over the edge of container.
4. Garnish with a few sprigs of colorful fall berries or bittersweet.
5. Note: If desired, create the arrangement in your hand and wire the stems together. Cut stems to length and insert into the container.
