I've got dried flowers lying around and I really don't want to throw it. So, I thought of something to recreate it. Aside from putting it in a jar, it would also be unique to frame them. I used a small Bamboo tray that I am not using, So the outcome would look like a farmhouse decoration.

I was thrilled to do it and as long as I had my materials ready, It was a breeze. I was very pleased with the product and showed it to my sister, who gave me the flower.

  • Draw a heart-shaped at the center of the tray, It will serve as a pattern.

  • Add glue at the bottom of the flowers and stick them in to the tray, tracing the heart drawing.

  • The tray has some tiny gaps around it, I inserted some white flowers halfway through the tray.
