A New Look For Spring!

Wondering how to quickly update an out of season arrangement into a “new” Spring arrangement? Add a few silk flowers & a string of lights!

Have you ever wondered how to quickly update an out of season arrangement? It is easier than you might think!  With a few seasonal silk flowers and a string of battery lights, you can turn a Holiday silk arrangement into a “new” Spring arrangement! 

At Christmastime, I had transformed an out of season silk arrangement into a glittery Holiday arrangement.

Instead of storing until next Christmas, I decided to replace the silk poinsettias with faux peonies!  Let me show you how I did it!

Budget Friendly Ways to Refresh A Silk Arrangement

Let’s Get Ready for Spring!

Even though it is still winter, I love to start bringing in touches of Spring to my decor.  Follow along with me while I show you how to quickly update an out of season arrangement by simply changing a few of the flowers. 

Refreshing the arrangement by changing out a few flowers and accents for the current season allows you to save on storage space. Place the out of season flowers and accent pieces in a Ziploc bag and mark them “Flowers/Accents for Holiday Centerpiece” or something similar.  The Ziploc bag will take up much less space than a finished arrangement!

I decided it was time to replace the poinsettias.  Instead of the re using the lilies that were in the arrangement before, I decided to use peonies.

The head is a little too large in my opinion, so I simply pulled the stem apart and removed several of the petals.   I saved them of course!  Never know when you might need some extra peony petals! I simply pulled the poinsettia head off the stem and replace it with the smaller peony.

I removed the poinsettia head to expose the stem.  I then was able to place the peony head on to the stem.

Accent pieces

I removed the glittery pinecones and filled in the spots with stems of rosemary.  I also used a small succulent.  I did leave a poinsettia on the stem behind the tiny faux succulent.

Lights, Camera, Action!!!
