How is everyone? This week’s ‘how to’ is a really easy and cute project. Often when you make a centerpiece for a party or dinner, you don’t always make it thinking that it has to last a long time. But that would actually be nice, right, if it did last a long time.
So we came up with a slightly different looking centerpiece, that will last a long time. It’s made from potted herbs and roses. A bit untraditional I guess, but it looks really pretty and it smells fantastic.
The whole idea is that you place your cut flowers in test-tubes, which are inserted into the herb plant. This way you can easily exchange the cut flowers when they are done, and you have a fresh centerpiece for any length of time. Another convenient thing is that you can pick and drizzle you food with fresh herbs right at the table.
You’ll need these materials:
Burlap
Jute-string
Test-tubes (about 10)
Tray (we used a baking tray)
10 Cut flowers
3 potted herbs of your choice
Happy project.
