Tulip idea: it doesn't get any easier then this


It’s really simple, take a bunch of tulips...



  • A group of simple tulip filled bottles
  • Tied together with ribbon
  • Dressed up with pearls and feathers
  • A simple way to display and sell a bunch of tulips 
Step 1

What you’ll need:
  • 9 small glass bottle vases
  • Two tones of ribbon (to tone with tulips)
  • Paper covered wire in toning colour
  • A wrap of tulips – we used pink
  • Bunch of steel grass
  • Dyed fern (or substitute with coloured feathers)
  • Pearl beads




Step 2

Make up:

  • Lightly attach glass bottles together in a 3 x 3 grid with a touch of clear glue or tape
  • Wrap the ribbons and the papre covered wire around the bottles and secure




Step 3

Adding the flowers:

  • Fill each bottle with a few cms of water
  • Add one tulip stem with leaf to each bottle




The finishing touch:

  • Thread the pearl beads onto the steel grass
  • Add steel grass to each bottle
  • Decorate the neck of the bottle with the fern
  • …and voila, it’s complete!
