| Directions (for tea pot):
|

|
Step 1 - Fill the pot with water that has been treated with floral preservative.
|
|
|
Step 2 - Cut the flower stems 1-inch taller than the creamer and remove greenery from their stems.
|
|
|
Step 3 - If you are right handed, hold the flowers in your left hand (and vice-versa). Make a round bunch by holding the flowers just under their blooms. The flower heads should all be at the same height and the stems should be straight and not criss-crossing.

Step 4 - When all of the flowers are used, fasten the bouquet with the rubber band. Cut the stems so that they slightly peer out over the edge of the pot.

Step 1 - Cut the stems off of each motsey-moto aster and purple delphinium.
|
|
|
Step 2 - Set one bloom (switch between asters and delphinium) on each cupcake.
