Springtime teacups

I brought home the flowers from college that I had used in my egg box arrangements, but because they were all cut short there wasn't much I could do with them. They were perfect for a teacup arrangement though, so I made up two!

3D Easter display

I was back at college this week, and we were constructing out final group display. My group chose Easter as its theme, and this is what we came up with. The display was a lot bigger than we were expecting, but we got a distinction so that wasn't a bad thing! I was responsible for making the simnal cake and the egg box flowers.

We were all really pleased with how the display came out. We thought we had too many flowers but actually I think it was just the right amount. It was just a shame it only stayed up for about 10 minutes before we had to take it down!

Egg box arrangement

For the 3D display we're doing at college my group have chosen an Easter theme, and I've chosen to make an arrangement in an egg box.  So I decided to have a practice in advance of the actual day.

I think the eggs looks great - the centres were easier to remove than I thought and it doesn't take many flowers for it to look good. The eggs aren't particularly water tight though - I don't think there were any holes but the water did seep through the shells. I've coated the inside with glue now though so hopefully that will help! I'm not sure what flowers I'll be using on the day but I'm sure they'll be similar.
