Fall Floral Basket
The leaves are falling and the air is
feeling crisp. I have been enjoying
the fall colors and here is a project that will help you bring those
colors into your home.
This floral arrangement is simple and
can be finished in just a few steps. Place
it beside your fire place, on a side table in your family room, or
on your front door step.

Instructions
1. Cut
the floral foam to fit inside the basket. Secure it with hot glue in a few places.
2. Cut
a hole in the center of the foam that is slightly smaller than the
diameter of the wheat bundle. Hot
glue the twig wreath to the top of the basket.
3. Push
the wheat stocks into the hole and secure them with hot glue.
4. Arrange
the sunflower stems around the wheat bundle. Cut the stems so that the top of the sunflowers
are at the bottom of the wheat buds. Add the foxtails in the same manner. Fill the top of the basket with moss.
5. Add the eucalyptus picks next and then the leaf picks. The eucalyptus will be slightly taller than the leaves.
