Valentines Day Heart Shaped Flower Centerpiece
The flowers all over the world are popular choice for people in love on Valentines Day. Depending on your mood and the feelings you want to express, pick up flowers and make elegant or whimsical arrangement.
The materials that you need to star are heart shaped basket, florist foam, plastic lining, at least two varieties flowers, some larger flowers for center and filler flowers for accent. Cover the heart shaped basket with heavy plastic. Cut heart shaped piece of the florist foam. It should be big enough to fill up the entire basket. Soak the foam in water. Then place it in the basket. From the larger flowers- very suitable for this day are the roses and the carnations, you have to shape a heart sticking them into the foam. Before that, do not forget to cut the stems. They should be as long as deep is the basket or a little bit longer. Fill the basket with these flowers, so you can hide the foam. Cut the stems of the accent flowers, too. They should be as long as the roses are. Fill in the heart shaped form until the foam is completely hidden and the basket looks full.
This flower arrangement will be wonderful decoration for your house but also will bring many smiles and happy feeling if it is made for your honey, because she will know that it has been made with love.
Also if you want you can tie a ribbon on the holder and add handmade Valentines Day card. Write your special love message and send it to your girlfriend or wife. If it is cold outside and want to keep the flowers fresh, you can wrap the basket with clear cellophane. Instead of tying the ribbon on the holder, tie it on cellophane.
