The Solution: a simple plant
Of course there are many plants that you can purchase that look similar to this one, but why buy one when you can make one for a lot less. Here is what I did:
Material:
-1 plant box from Hobby Lobby. They have so many to choose from and I used a 40% off coupon. I think it was close to $5.
-2 grass plants from Hobby Lobby. They are 50% off almost every other week so watch for that!
-1 floral foam brick. Any floral or craft store.
-Any kind of ribbon (optional)
Cut the foam down to the right size to fit tightly in the flower box. Insert the two plants into the form so they are snug. (make sure to center them in the box) I did not worry about putting anything in the flower box to hide the green foam because I knew it was going on a high shelf where no one can see that. I then tied a pretty ribbon around the box to add a feminine touch. After it sat on the shelf for a few days I decided to remove the ribbon. Which way do you like better?
