Jam jar flowers - with a macrame cuff

Are you fed up with cutting and plonking your supermarket flowers in the same way – in the same old vase? With a little bit a know-how you could be upcycling jam jars and creating one-off vases. They’ll be perfect for displaying a few stems from your garden, or the side-shoots left over from a supermarket bunch – or a few choice blooms from your florist. By the end of this video you’ll be able to: • upcycle jam jars (and other containers) to create folksy vases • apply the techniques you’ve learnt to give vases you’ve already got a new look • confidently arrange flowers you’ve picked from your garden, or foraged on family walks • amaze your friends and family with your ideas-on-a-shoestring creativity! For this project you’ll need a supply of jam jars, a pair of scissors, some decoupage papers and glue, plus flowers and greenery of your choice. You may already have these supplies at home.
