Today on At Home with Flowers- let’s Dress up our Vases with Beautiful Ribbon from Reliant Ribbon and Flowers… of course! I create 3 different vase treatments- the first featuring Pussy Willows with Purple Dupioni Silk Ribbon- and add Lepto Flower and Carnations! The 2nd is a simple ‘braiding’ technique- that isn’t actually braiding- and I’ll use Red Spray Roses, Pin Cushion Protea and Gerando Gerberas to complete that vase! The final vase- uses 2 different widths of ribbon- to accent the cylinder- and then I’ll add 2 different kinds of protea- and 2 different colors of Gerando Gerberas… it’s 3 fun projects – you can translate to any time of year… it’s a wonderful way to dress up your vase- so you can enjoy Flowers at Home!
