FTD Flower Christmas Tree

It’s official! I have named myself the craft queen of Christmas 2016!:boxwood-star-2_thumb_thumbtree2stock_thumbI am just enjoying myself putting these projects together!So, FTD had written me asking if I would like to decorate a Christmas Tree with real flowers and take photos for their website. I had a choice of a few beautiful arrangement to chose from here. Of course the purple, FTD Joyful Bouquet by Vera Wang won my vote!:veraAt first I wondered how will the flowers stay alive?? Then I remembered these little floral tubes:floral tubeOkay! I will give it a try. I actually forgot to take a before photo of the tree when it was bare and naked. I remembered once I already started:naked treeMy beautiful bouquet to work with:vera bouquetI added the flowers last.

Would you try this at home? I do suggest using a small tree because of the live flowers.I want to thank Brett from FTD for allowing me to take part in this Christmas project! It was fun and allowed me to be more Christmas crafty!
