$2 Spring Soda Bottle Flower Arrangement

It may be raining outside, but we have a touch of spring on our dining table. This little arrangement brightens up my day, even when the clouds are looming outside. Were you wondering where the sixth bottle from this collection went? Now you know!



My little one chose these daisies at the dollar store. He was very insistent and would not let them go, so I decided to go with it and found the turquoise glass gems to add another pop of color. This project cost me a total of $2!! Another stash busting hubs pleaser!



What you'll need:
Silk Flowers
Soda Bottle with labels removed
Glass gems
Burlap scrap
Ribbon Scrap
Glue gun




1. Put all the gems inside the bottle.
2. Hot glue a scrap of burlap just wider than your ribbon on the bottle.
3. Tie a bow in your ribbon leaving the tails long enough to wrap around the bottle. Glue it in place on the burlap.
4. Insert the flowers. I cut a few of the stems off so I could arrange them at different heights.

That's it! $2 and 5 minutes and you have a fun arrangement for your table!

I LOVE me a good deal, and $2 is right up my alley! I used the same flowers just slightly a different color last week for a diaper cake!
