Floral Looking Glass - Recipe and Photos by Jill Slater
Rose Floral Looking Glass FinalDecorating with stylish simplicity has become very popular and it's now in vogue to make the most of just a little. This 'minimal' decorating trend can be applied to fresh flower accents. An intriguing design is quickly created with just 3 or 4 flowers and one large glass vase that contains 3 smaller vessels.

Peer through the large vase to see the smaller vases of flowers inside. This Floral Looking Glass adds modern drama to rooms indoors or even outside. When designed with blue iris or red roses this arrangement adds sparkle and helps to create a festive Fourth of July.

Floral Looking Glass Step One

Step 1 - Fill the 3 small bud vases with water and 1 or 2 stems of iris or roses. Cut the flowers slightly taller than the individual vases or very short so that the bloom sits just at the rim of the vase.

Step 2 - Now simply insert each bud vase into the large vase.
