the flower jar

image

A couple weeks ago, I had a rough week at work. Jeff was nice and got me flowers to make me feel better.

I didn’t use to like flowers, but I’ve grown to be a flower kind of girl. Only problem is: what do you do with them once they start wilting?

For this bouquet, I saved a bunch of the small roses by hanging them upside down.

I took an old spice jar and filled it with dried lavender left over from our wedding. (We still have a big bag of it left!)

Then I put the dried roses in. I finished it off with some dried twig things I got from IKEA a long time ago. I had to cut them down to fit, but felt that the twigs helped the arrangement.

I brought the flower jar in to work. I figured it’d help cheer met up next time things got stressful.
