Until all five greens are in vase with the stems crisscross one another. Next put in the 3 sunflowers on three of the 4 corners of the vase. Then place 3 of the wooden flowers around the sunflowers to create a compacted look. Next place the 3 roses in the holes between the wood flowers and sunflowers. Then we add the safflowers as the filler to fill in any holes. lastly we spray with a floral preservative. I love crowning glory!

Supplies

Steps to design mini vase

Home-made floral preservative
32 ounces of filtered water
