Repurposing A Yoghurt Container

The next in our Supermarket Flowers series includes repurposing a container for the vase/main structure. There are two videos for this technique – one made some time ago with two people who had never attempted flower arranging before (and were also self confessed craft dunces!) and the second one is specifically for this design (shown below).

Using a plastic container as the base, I have covered it with some paper doilies. The first layer gives coverage to the container, then I have added cone shapes to enable small plastic vials to be glued in. You can make this without the vials using lavender in the cones or any other plant material that does not need a water source.

As you can imagine, using the paper doilies provides an opportunity to have a design that matches the celebration as these can be founf in gold, silver and other printed finishes.
