With flowers beginning to bloom, it’s time to think about what to do with your garden’s bounty — or the bounty of the florist shop! Design*Sponge has some cute ideas for how to arrange flowers with the aid of a tea pot.
Sarah Brysk Cohen of Blossom and Branch gave Design*Sponge the tips. They’re perfect for spring floral arrangements for bridal and baby showers, Easter brunch or just to add a little flair to your home. Here’s how to go about it:
- Find a teapot! Use what you have, or hit up an antique store for a unique find.
- Clean the flowers.
- Cut the stems at the appropriate angle.
- Start with your main bunch of flowers (Brysk Cohen uses roses), followed by smaller blooms and foliage (mint and jasmine in this case). Let some of the herbs and vines flow over the side of the for a casual springtime look.
- Place your flowery teapot anywhere where your house needs a spot of spring!
