DIY TRADER JOE’S FLOWER ARRANGEMENT | how to create a flower bouquet like a florist
How I create my DIY flower bouquets from Trader Joe’s: • Add flower food to my water • Remove leaves from the flowers that will be below the water line (or any others that I think aesthetically it would look better without — I want the focus on flowers not leaves!) • For roses, I remove the outer petals that are usually a bit dirty, then gently open up the petals of the remaining rose with my fingers. I want to loosen the flower a little, but not ruin its bloom prematurely! • Style layers accordingly as I did in the video. • For additional help, floral foam, chicken wire, or the “tape trick” can be useful for spacing out your flowers, especially if you are using fewer stems and need to fill the vase evenly.

MAKE A BOUQUET FROM TRADER JOES FLOWERS
Difficulty: Easy BOUQUET FILLINGS: • Start with a green base (I choose eucalyptus) • Next get some filler pieces, small white flower, baby’s breathe, etc. • Get your main flower(s) • Use the rest of your filler greens on top • Cut a Kraft paper in a square • Fold the bottom up to become a triangle • Roll paper around flowers • Tie tight (no such thing as too tight!) • + viola!
