florals ~ fast & furious

                          mr. simple brought me flowers today from his favorite florist,
                                                            Costco.
                                  He was beaming with pride as he pronounced,
                "I picked a pumpkin color, see they're kind of orange, for Halloween!"
                                                                              
                                       Here's my fast & furious arrangement.

                   
                 ~     Cut stems and place in an 8" cylinder vase
                 ~     Cut your choice of ribbon and hot glue it to the outside of cylinder
                 ~     Place the cylinder inside a large hurricane, I chose this one with
                         black to coordinate with my other fast & furious Halloween decor
                 
                        It gives the popular look of stems wrapped with ribbon.
       After Halloween replace the ribbon with warm fall colors to match your decor.

                           ~   thank you, mr. simple, they're the perfect orange  ~
