Semi-Homemade Flower Arrangement
Arranging Market Bouquets

This is a great way to dress up a simple bouquet you bought at the Grocery Store… I call it a Semi-Homemade Flower Arrangement- because we’re taking that simple bouquet to the next level- with some foliage from the garden.
This arrangement is created in a block of soaked flower foam- I’m using the NEW biodegradable Midnight Foam – and have placed it inside a compote. Then I use2 kinds of Mint from the Garden- smooth leaf- and rough leaf… and a stem of Scented Geranium (that even has a bloom!). Placing these stems of garden foliage in the arrangement give it a wildflower look- and upgrade this simple market bunch of flowers.
Adding the flowers from the Magenta Colorful Quartet (part of J’s Bouquets)… I can create a semi-homemade arrangement in just a few minutes- and have a wonderful centerpiece that will last a long time! It’s that easy- to have flowers at home!
