DIY Flower Frog

Want some help arranging your flowers?


First, you'll need someone to give you some flowers.


Then you'll need a vase and some tape.  Using the tape, create a grid, over your vase.


Cut your flowers down to a size appropriate for your vase.  Then fill the holes from the grid in with your flowers.


And admire...

No wilting, no sagging.

Hmmm...I wonder if this would work for me as well.

    1. I've only tried with square. Being the crafting scientist you are, you'll have to let me know how that experiment goes :)
