Flower Fusion: Blend Store-Bought Buds and Garden Branches
A spring-anticipating bouquet can chase away winter gloom.
Transform a mix of grocery store blooms and the forsythia branches in your garden into a pretty spring-anticipating arrangement. For a full farmhouse style arrangement, try leaving the stems a bit longer. Cut the stems at various heights while mixing the blooms and arrange them in a weathered metal bucket.

Winter seems to last forever living in the Northeast. To say that I am ready for spring would be an understatement.
I needed a little pick me up. I could easily bring a little spring inside to brighten these gloomy days. Play around with different vessels and you can create an arrangement to fit any budget and décor. With just a few bunches of flowers I was able to create arrangements suited to different rooms.
