Before you start unpacking your flowers, you want to gather everything you’ll need ‼️ Find a flat surface that’s clear of clutter like a kitchen island or your work room table- that works great. Next, grab a sharp pair of floral scissors, shears, and a vase/ bucket of your choice ✂️ Make sure to cut your stems at an angle and then place i the fresh water 💧 ☺️

One of my favorites 🤩 Strawflowers! These babies are everlasting! Strawflowers enjoy two lives. First, as a fresh, cut flower in an arrangement or bouquet. Their second life is lived in dried floral arrangements, wreaths, or other crafts!
