For this, we will need the following:
1. Styrofoam or floral foam
2. Old newspaper
3. Faux flowers of your choice
4. Spray paint
5. Plastic pots
Let's start. First, pick some flowers. For this project, I chose the pink and cream combo. I think this will match the baby blue color of our living room. I've got faux peonies and roses. You can choose any flower you like. Measure the stem length of your flowers and then cut according to pot depth. Remove extra branches and leaves.
Next, go outside, somewhere where air is circulating then place newspapers on your work area. Place your pots and start spraying. I chose pots with stands which I think are pretty cool. I painted it pure white just because white is versatile and if I wanted to change up the flowers, it would still match the color of the pot. Follow your spray paint instructions. Shake vigorously then spray thinly by spraying at a distance. Let the first layer dry then spray again until you cover the whole surface and let it dry completely.
This is how it looked like while drying. I placed it on our terrace to completely dry.
Next, cut some Styrofoam or floral foam. I used Styro because that is what I have at the moment but floral foam is ideal. Place your cut foam inside the pot. Fill it so all sides have foam.
Next, stick your flowers on your foam. Start at the center then work your way out. I place the large cream roses at the center then peonies at the side then small roses as fillers for any remaining gaps.
Here is what my flower pots looked like after. A simple decor for my living room that will make a great impact :) I really love how it turned out.
