There are so many great uses for this multi-functional caddy, but the truth is, my favorite is creating a casual floral arrangement. It's quick, easy, and with multiple vessel spaces, you can be a total beginner and still create a beautiful arrangement. Here's how it's done.
The wire paint caddy comes in a great red color. It’s nice as-is, but if you want something in a different color, hit it with a nice coat of spray paint. I picked a fern color made by Rustoleum. Wait for the paint to thoroughly.
Place pint glasses or glass vessels that are similar in size in the caddy slots. These Pint Mason Jars would work great. I chose to fill 3 of the 6 slots simply due to the large blooms I was working with. I also wanted to create a casual, overflowing arrangement.
Place a large focal bloom in each of the 3 vessels
Add in greens for texture. I like eucalyptus for all the awesome varieties, textures and shapes it takes. It has a nice sweeping form when nestled at the base of a vessel, particularly when paired with something like hydrangea as shown here.
Fill in with stock or another complementary bloom for added color and texture.
These make beautiful, inexpensive gifts. I had just plain white tags and a leather scrap, but I just ordered these Burlap Gift Tags and some Faux Leather Cording to keep on-hand for future projects.
This floral arrangement is great for Mother’s Day, showing teacher appreciation or a simple “thank you” gift. Don’t be afraid to customize it and make this piece your very own!
