SUPPLIES

  • 5x5-inch glass cylinder (or other vase-style container)

  • Red ribbon
  • 1 large Neve Bros. bouquet*

PREPARATION

  1. Find the halfway point of your candy canes. Use this measurement and apply mounting tape to your vase.
  2. Mount your candy canes (with or without wrapping) around your container one at a time. If your candy canes are shorter than 5 inches, leave the gap above.
  3. Tie a ribbon on the top (as in the photo), or around the middle of the candy canes—it’s up to you!
  4. Fill your container with fresh water and floral food, then create your floral arrangement using your desired method.
  5. Set your creation out in a prominent place for all to enjoy!
