MOTHER'S DAY FLOWER ARRANGEMENTS
Take-out Box Bouquet for MomFrosted plastic carryout boxes make perfect, inexpensive containers for Mother's Day bouquets. Buy a couple of different sizes and colors for variety (available at crafts stores) and fill with flowers of the same color.
BHG Editor's Tip: Place the blooms inside a short, water-filled glass before setting the bouquet into the box.
Another great idea from BHG, dress up a plain vase or tin can with grosgrain ribbon. Hot-glue one end of the ribbon at the bottom, wrap it around the vase in evenly overlapping layers, and glue the other end at the top.
Peonies are a classic and beautiful choice for a Mother's Day flower bouquet, especially because they bloom abundantly April through June. Gather a bunch into a pretty pitcher for a refreshing twist on the traditional vase, and display them inside or outside.Painted Vase: Simply swirl white glass paint inside an old glass.
