FOR GOOD TIMES - Bird Breakfast Garland

Saturday, April 12, 2014

birds on a wire

Today was our Multiflora Essentials Workshop, and it was such great fun. The talk centered around Chapter 3 of our book FOR GOOD TIMES, and one of the projects we showcased was this garland. It is really easy to do - and can easily be applied for any occasion (I also showed the same idea but using herbs and ribbon for a Mothers Day Garden table). 


MATERIALS 
Wooden Pegs | Paint | Paint Brush | Wide Ribbon – to tie the width of your table and fasten at the sides on poles | Twine | Printable Bird Images | Scissors | Suggested Flowers (real or fake, cut or potted with roots intact): Pansies, Tulips, Daffodils, Hyacinths, Bellis, Anemones, Ranunculus, Snowdrops 

DIRECTIONS 
1 – Paint the wooden pegs. 
2 – Print and cut out the bird motifs. 
3 – Tie ribbon over the width of your table a metre above the table height. 
4 – Tie the flowers onto the ribbon at regular intervals upside down. 
5 – Peg the printable bird motifs along the length of the ribbon. 


The next Multiflora Workshop will be the 7 June, and there are great magazine subscriptions offers, the prizes are amazing (trust me!) and you get a free magazine. Plus, as it is a Saturday morning, driving to Multiflora is a pleasure as the roads are so quiet and the flower choices and prices are really good!
