Step One
As with all flowers, you first want to process them by cutting the stems and removing the leaves from the stems and placing them in clean water.

Step Two
Begin by putting water in the vessels you have selected. Next, start playing around with the flowers to see which flower looks best in each vessel.

Step Three
Some vessels, you will only need one stem, depending on the size of the bloom and for other vessels, you can group a few stems of the same flower together.

Step Four
I used colorful flowers such as, poppies, ranunculus, anemones. I wanted to use bright color blooms with an accent of white flowers. So, for the white, I choose the anemones.

Step Five
You can place them as groupings on a vintage tray or even display them in a Pepsi crate!
