Easy Winter Floral Arrangement

So are your decorations all up 

and are you all ready for the holidays?  

What is left on your list 

besides the last minute gift giving?  

Are you entertaining friends or family?  

I have the perfect centerpiece 

for your holiday table 

or in my case 

 entry table floral arrangement.  

Here is what you need.  

A vessel or container, floral foam, 

winter greenery, pears or apples, 

flowers (I didn't end up using the flowers) 

and a central ornament 

or what I used, 

a white glittery dollar store house.

I soaked the floral foam in water 

and put it into a plastic container.  

I cut three bamboo skewers 

the same size and placed 

the glitter house on top.  

I tested it for height and then removed it.

The glitter house was made 

with Martha Stewart glitter and glue last year.  

I found these little houses at 

the dollar store 

and glammed them up.  

I used the box to catch the extra glitter.  

You can see my post HERE.

I had purchased a few winter garlands 

at Costco to use outside 

and I had some greens left over.  

I placed the greens into the floral foam.  

Don't worry, 

it looks random now 

but it will be beautiful when it is done.

I put the glitter house 

back on it's stilts in the middle.  

 I then started to add the pears 

into the arrangement.  

Just poke a bamboo skewer 

into the bottom and cut it to size.

It's starting to take shape!

With the pears in place, 

I added some tiny pine cones to the mix.  

I tried the white flowers 

but it just didn't look right.  

I filled in the bare spots with more greenery.  

You could add some silver or gold ornaments 

if you like or some ribbon.  

I sprinkled some glittery snow on the top to finish it off.  

All together it took me less than a half hour.  

I think this is the most creative thing 

I have done since we put the house up for sale!  

It felt good to do a project just for fun!

And there you go...  

The greens and the pears should last 

past Christmas as long as I remember 

to keep water in it!  

Until Next Time,

Beaux R'eves,
