Flower Arrangement

With fresh flowers...

This is a small terracotta tray filled up with water. The petals of yellow Chrysanthemums and red coloured marigold flowers and few leaves were just thrown into it-not arranged in any particular order. It is a mosaic of colours but the beautiful smells of the flowers fills up the room with an interesting fragrance.
One can use one these terracotta urns and trays available in various shapes and sizes. We can also paint them according to our requirement.

Flower Arrangement

People always think that they need lot of expensive things to decorate their homes. But it is very much possible to decorate our homes, using less expensive things. Fresh flowers, from our own garden or growing wild are one of them.


Here is one arrangement of fresh flowers in water. This was in one of the resorts I visited in Kerala. All these flowers grow wild on the road side.

Terracotta tray filled with fresh cold water has been used. The flowers used are hibiscus, periwinkle, blue flowers(I don't know their name), daisies etc, which are quite common in our homes and also grow abundantly on road side. 

This arrangement will last easily for 3-4 hours. This can be placed on North-East corner (as per Vaastu) or in the living room or on the front porch, or on a table. Even in the garden this would look great.

One can use various sizes and shapes of terracotta, glass, metal, stone or other trays or bowls for such arrangements. Use of fragrant flowers will also fill the area with fragrance. or else one can add a few drops of aromatic oils or scents to the water.

So why don't you try it to please your guests.....
