SIMPLE SUMMER ARRANGEMENT

Hey there friends!  If you are coming over from Laura’s Everyday Edits, welcome to Decorate and More with Tip!  Here on my blog I share tips on how you can decorate your home on a budget by creating it from scratch, revamping, re-purposing or giving it a makeover with easy tutorials.  I hope I inspire you to create something beautiful for your home. 🙂

It’s time for the Pinterest Inspiration Challenge hosted by Cindy, County Road 407.   I will list all of the participant’s links at the bottom of my page.  The purpose of the challenge is to take an inspiration photo Cindy finds on Pinterest and create our own version of it.  Our inspiration photo this month is from Mary over at Home is Where the Boat Is.  I love Mary’s blog, all of her post!  Today’s inspiration is from her lemon tablescape, you have to check out the centerpiece she made for her table.  I am sharing a photo of it below, isn’t it beautiful?

Do you like to decorate with lemons?  My kitchen is full of lemons this summer.  So when Cindy gave us the inspirational photo I was excited to get started.  I knew just what I wanted to create for this lemon challenge.  I went out in our yard, cut some of our hydrangeas off the bush and brought them in to create my arrangement.   While I was removing some leaves from the stems a bug crawled off, back outside they went!  I went into my flower stash and pulled out a couple bundles to use instead.

The supplies I used were:

  • glass container
  • small faux lemons or real lemons if you prefer
  • bundle of sunflowers
  • a small fern stem

For my arrangement I am using a glass wire container.

To keep the theme of the inspirational photo I am filling my containers with lemons.  I am using small whole lemons to fill my container.

Filling my container halfway with lemons.

Keeping the sunflowers securely in the container I placed a piece of floral form inside on top of the lemons. I made sure the form fit tightly in the container.

Using my snips I cut the sunflower stems off the bundle.

Once the stems were off the bundle I arranged the flowers in my container.

To give it a little more texture I added fern stems to the arrangement.

To fix the view of the floral form,  I used a piece of ribbon, wrapped it around the container added a dab of hot glue to keep it attached.

That’s it.  I placed it on the table to enjoy for the rest of our summer.
