This teapot flower arrangement is an easy DIY gift idea or for a centerpiece for a party. You can make this lovely “keep forever” arrangement with just a few items and a few minutes of your time.
We look to do our craft project hunting at thrift stores. Tea cups and teapots are usually very easy to find and buy for just a few dollars. You can often find us at Goodwill of Orange County. What is your favorite thrift store? Let us know in the comments.
You can mix-and-match different patterns and cluster several of them together for a stunning centerpiece or make them individually.
When choosing the flowers to use in your arrangements, keep in mind the color scheme and size of your teacups and teapot so the scale is correct. We like to work in a color scheme using three different color flowers. If you like more variety, use smaller flowers so you don’t overcrowd the arrangement.
Now, let’s get started!
Supplies:
- Teapot & Tea Cups with Saucers
- Silk Flowers – it is cost effective to look for silk flowers in bunches or bouquets and then cut them apart
- Wire Cutters
- Floral Foam
- Knife to cut the foam (be careful!)
Step 2:
Cut the foam using a knife. Shave down sides evenly until you get the size you need. Make sure the floral foam sits tight within the cup so that it does not fall out or move. The foam block should fill the bottom of the cup and teapot.
PIN it for later!
