~Rooster Floral Arrangement ~


I made this arrangement--Woo, hoo!

This morning was rainy and windy, so it was the perfect day to stay home and just vedge! I made some hot apple cider and I don't know what came over me, but I got into a major creative streak. I have been looking for an arrangement for my dining room table for weeks now with no luck. So, when all else fails, go with what you have and make better use of it, so that's what I did! So, down to the basement I went to scrounge what I could from old fall garlands. I found a Rooster and a decorative bird cage. I grabbed my wire cutter and hot clue gun and off to arranging I went. Above are the pictures of my new fall dining room table arrangement!

In addition to making this arrangement, I re-vamped some curtains in two different rooms and re-arranged furniture. I think things are turning out pretty and I will post pictures sometime next week.

I hope everyone is having a nice weekend!

((Hugs))

What a great piece, Liz! Dining room tables always seem to need a bigger centerpiece than what you think.
