This one was a lot of fun, but also a challenge for me. As the mom of two boys, we don’t have a lot of girly stuff around our house. It was great to get to play around with some fun and bright colors and be a little funky and creative with this project.

You Will Need (7 things)

  • Scissors
  • Floral Foam
  • Other- 4-6 bright Feather(s)
  • 8-10 large and bright gerbera daisies Flowers
  • 3-5 funky and bright accent pieces Embellishment(s)
  • Colorful Basket or container
  • Professional Grade Stem Cutters

Steps (5 steps, 30 minutes)

  1. 1

    Place foam into your container. If you are using any container other than one with a cloth lining, I recommend using the Fiskars Spray foam. Very lightly mist the interior of your container and spray in the foam approximately 1/3-1/2 the way up. Allow to cure for 12 to 24 hours.

  2. 2

    Prep your flowers. Trim your daisies and feathers to your desired length. Save your accents until assembling, as you might want to play with them a bit to get the right look. In mine, I staggered them, shortest to tallest, front to back. This was meant to be a 180 view, not a 360 view.

  3. 3

    Once the foam has cured, begin arranging front to back, building up as you go. Your feathers will be in the back as the anchor of the arrangement.

  4. 4

    Go back in and add your embellishment pieces as per your particular liking. Use the stem cutter to cut them to your desired length.

    Display your funky masterpiece in the room of your favorite tweenager!
