When friends and family gather to enjoy a meal, there's often little room on the table for flowers alongside plates, serving dishes, food and drinks. A flower decoration suspended above the table instead of on it makes a fabulous alternative that will add a splash of joyful colour for guests to enjoy, while still leaving plenty of surface space free.
This ladder-style hanging display is easy and inexpensive to make and has a rustic, handcrafted vibe that is perfect for outdoor gatherings on late summer evenings. Decorate it with colourful fresh blooms or if you want to create something similar for indoors, consider faux flowers or garlands of seasonal greenery, whether for display in summer, autumn or Christmas time.
YOU WILL NEED
* Several sturdy straight branches * Saw * Cordless screwdriver * Screws * Strong twine * Selection of glass bottles * Screw eyes for hanging * Sturdy hooks * Upright geraniums
