DIY Upside Down Floral Arrangement.

The inspiration:

When we first spotted these amazing upside down floral arrangements on Style Me Pretty {Our Labor of Love}, we literally gasped.  So amazing, so different, beyond anything we’d ever seen.  We decided that we just had to try to recreate something similar on a smaller scale. 

 Our version:

We bought all the crafting materials from Michaels and the flowers from Trader Joe’s (yellow spider mums, ranunculus and tulips).  We used 3 of the 8” blocks of floral foam (we wanted one solid block, but unfortunately Michaels didn’t carry them).  We secured each block together using toothpicks.  Then added moss to the entire base, securing with an adhesive spray glue.  We pushed the flowers into the foam block (no adhesive was needed).  Then tied ribbon around to secure and hang from a doorway.  Love it!

I would like to do the same to represent bats in a childrens' book. Are your flowers hydrated in any way or will they simply dry as they are?
