Garden Flower Bouquet + Tips

I made a flower bouquet from my Aunt Anna's gardens!  Just thought I'd share the turnout with you.  It's quite a crowded bouquet, but I just loved all the flowers and I was simply too excited that my aunt was encouraging me to pick them.
Some tips she gave me:
  • Change the water daily to help extend the freshness of the flowers (ice cubes are nice too)
  • Put the vase in a sink filled with water overnight so that any bugs in the flowers (like earwigs) will crawl out and (unfortunately) drown - rather than seeing them roam your home
  • Pick some leaves/foliage to help fill up the bouquet - very nice for bouquets consisting of only one or two types of flowers
