Workspace Wednesday - blooms from the wholesale market

 

Went to the wholesale market and scored some lilies. Self-care never smelled so sweet. :)

Hope you are having a great week.

Workspace Wednesday - making the most out of a $5 bouquet from the supermarket

Happy Wednesday friends! Felt like having some fresh flowers in my room...so I got a $5 bouquet from the supermarket, split the blooms into small vases (technically speaking, there was only one actual crystal vase...the rest are decorated sake bottles..*winks*), arranged them nicely on a rattan tray and  *happy music plays in the background*....got a pretty floral arrangement for my room. :)

If you are lucky to have flowers in your own garden, take them indoors and enjoy them! 

P/s: If you use a smaller "vase", you don't need so many flowers to fill it up.

Fresh floral displays using sake bottles

 

Happy Thursday friends!  Yesterday I picked up some fresh blooms. They were too small a bouquet to fill up my usual vase so I cut them down and used my sake bottles as "vases" to get 3 smaller floral displays.  You might recognise two of the bottles because they have been "decorated" previously.  The centre one is "naked" because I haven't got round to making her pretty. Yet. *winks*

This bottle was decorated a couple of years ago with a zipper, lace, pearls and a metal deer head from a paperclip. I actually have an altered bottle tutorial for it that was done back in 2015! Over the years, it has been used as a pen holder, a brush holder, a photo prop and of course, a vase. :)

This bottle makeover was just decorated back in April this year as an addition to my photo prop collection...but works great as a floral holder too. :)

And then there is the unadorned one.  I kind of like how the light shines right through it. I might opt for something translucent over it....like lace or printed acetate or clear glass paint. What do you think?
