The Easiest Flower Arrangement Ever (with our Orb Flower Frog)

We have a new product in the store. It's this fabulous Ceramic Orb Flower Frog (it comes in matte black or matte white). We added this piece to our product line a few months ago, and just before the Easter holiday our shipment arrived. I was pretty excited. :) Since we were hosting Easter this year, I decided to use a couple (in the white colorway) as Easter centerpieces. Let me say-- I love this thing. Talk about an easy arrangement!! It's terrific. Here's how easy it is to use...

My Easter table was mostly set. I played around with this centerpiece arrangement-- one orb? two? or three orbs, down the center of the table?? In the end, I decided that two felt like a nice balance for a table of six people.

I purchased a bunch of different flowers (including peonies, alstroemeria, and hypericum-- all from my local grocery store), and filled the bowl base with fresh water.

starting with the peonies...

...and finishing with the alstroemeria and pink hypericum. I tried to balance everything out, placing different stems all around the orb. I didn't feel the need to fill every hole with a stem-- I like seeing some of the open holes peek through.

Done!

I love these orbs and will be using them quite often for future arrangements. So easy. Wouldn't these make the most terrific Mother's Day gifts? I think so. I really love the matte white, but we also have them in matte black (which feels a little more modern, in my opinion).

I love any excuse to go crazy buying fresh flowers. And, Easter Sunday was a really good excuse. :)

I bought 50 pink tulips (couldn't resist that color!), and made two large arrangements for our dining room credenza...

I used our Blue & White Ginger Jars as vases. Love this combo of blue & white with the bright pink blossoms. And, tulips last forever (as I type this post -- one week after Easter -- these tulips are still gorgeous). Money well spent, if you ask me. ;)

We also took our little bunny to his first Easter mass...

and, he didn't make a sound. :)
