We get it. The DIY life is not for everyone, and most of us barely have time to breathe let alone work through a Pinterest board full of crafty projects. But here is the thing: fresh flowers do not require a lot of effort to look incredible. This arrangement takes 5 minutes, uses just a handful of stems, and will completely freshen up the mood of any room in your home. You do not have to be a florist. You just have to love flowers.
What We Used:
- Football Mums (Lavender) — big, full blooms that make a statement with minimal stems
- Eucalyptus — for a lush, fragrant green base
- Pittosporum (Variegated Green) — adds texture and depth
- A vase and fresh water
How to Make It:
Cut the ends of your stems at an angle and allow them to hydrate in fresh water for at least 1 to 2 hours before arranging. Once hydrated, arrange your greens first to create a base, then add your football mums. Trim stems evenly to fit your vase height, add fresh water, place in your favorite room, and you are done!
Keeping fresh flowers in your home is one of the easiest ways to brighten any space, lift the mood, and add a pop of color without redecorating. Football mums are especially great for this because a single stem is already full and lush, so a few go a long way.
Other Easy Combinations to Try
Not feeling football mums today? Any of these combinations are just as effortless and just as beautiful.
- Sunflowers with Israeli ruscus — bold, cheerful, and works in any room
- Spray roses with baby's breath — soft, romantic, and always stunning
- Hydrangeas alone in a short wide vase — one or two stems fill the whole thing
- Roses with eucalyptus — classic, fragrant, and endlessly versatile
- Dried botanicals — no hydration needed, minimal care, and they last for months
