Tools I use are linked in my bio.

this $5 watermelon bowl was too good to leave behind 🤭

instead of filling the whole thing with flowers or messing with floral foam, I used plastic cups, rubber bands, putty + the mesh from an orange bag as makeshift flower frogs.

way fewer flowers, still looks so full 🙌 just in time for the long weekend 🌸

follow along…there’s so much more to come 🤍
