Teachers Appreciation Day Flowers in a Box

This is my first time ever making gifts for Teachers Appreciation Day.  Since my son attends 2 different schools, Pre-K in the morning and Montessori at noon, I had 2 groups of Teachers Appreciation gifts to create within the same week! I ponder a bit on what to make trying to stay within budget.  Then I saw these cutes boxes at Dollar Tree and thought it would be nice to make a mini version of my Flower in a Box design.

So here they are!  All flowers were purchased at my local Krogers in Wylie and Plano, TX, the rosemary from my flowerbed, and the grey preserved moss from Hobby Lobby.  The cost came out around $7 per arrangement.

Modern Spring Floral Design

 

I love the Spring time because it is the last few weeks before it gets over 100 degrees in Texas. While shopping at Krogers on my lunch break, I had to walk by the floral department to check out the florals. At that moment, I knew I had made a mistake.  The floral department had ton of their floral bouquets marked down to half price. These Wahoo prices are like crack to someone like me.

So after looking at a dozen Wahoo priced bouquets, I decided to settled for this purple and peach mix bunch.  I am normally not a fan of mix bunch flowers because these bouquets contents a lot of cheap filler flowers. Since these were half off at $7.99, I thought why not!

I decided to go with a modern contemporary arrangement to ring in the Spring. Sorry, I should have taken some before pictures of the bouquet and all the supplies needed.  I will make a note to myself to do this for future arrangements.

Supplies:

  • 1 bouquet of mix flowers (large & small purple mums, orange sprayed carnations, peach snap dragons, orange/yellow astromeria and ruscus leaves)
  • Half a block of wet floral form
  • A square 9″ plate
  • A piece of the mylar wrapping from the floral bouquet to line the plate before adding the foam (This is optional. I like doing this for the ease of cleaning the plate)

I hope you enjoyed this floral arrangement and get inspired to create one!
