Decorative accessory spheres are all the rage. Found in ceramic, twig, and seeded versions, these pretty items can be the basis of a great table arrangement.
Once piled into a bowl, the balls can be embellished with flowers, babies breath, or leaves.
• Bowl, platter or tray
• decorative accessory balls
• 6-12 roses or other type of flower
• leaves, if desired
• (optional) babies breath
Arrange balls in a bowl or on a platter or tray.
Next, cut the flower stems to about 3-6" long and insert between the balls.
Clip leaf sprigs to about 5" and insert between the balls near the roses.
Tip: Flowers may last several hours without water. To make an arrangement last longer, fill the bottom of the bowl with water and cut flower stems long enough to reach down to the water -- only if the water will not damage the decorative balls. Or, use clear floral water tubes for each flower stem, inserting both a flower and a leaf, plus a stem of babies breath into the tube.
