DESIGN OF THE WEEK

Teddy Bear Topiary

topiary

Teddy Bear sunflowers are the only flowers used in this design, suitable for a centerpiece, gift or just to add some fun to an otherwise ordinary spot in your home. Gather them in your hand, turning and positioning them to your liking, then put a rubber band around the top. Add pre-soaked floral foam to a terra cotta pot (tape the hole or use a saucer), insert your stems, cover the foam with moss and tie with a festive bow. To get the spots on the pot, spray the entire thing with one color (orange in this case). When dry, put masking tape around the rim and add Avery circular labels, then spray a different color (green). When completely dry, remove the tape and the labels and you have a custom pot. Why not make some red and white pots to use for Holiday gifts? Instead of labels, you could use anything with an adhesive backing - stickers, stars, etc. Have some fun!
