DIRECTIONS

  1. Cut a brick of floral foam into 3 pieces, 3x3x3-inch cubes.

  2. Apply your spray adhesive to one side and dip into mulch. Repeat for better coverage. Repeat for all six sides (We recommend wearing rubber gloves to keep your hands glue free.)

  3. To make your tags, print out black and white photographs to approximately 2 x 3 inches. Print 2 photos per person.

  4. Mix a very small amount of water with your craft glue.

  5. With a brush, paint glue to outline a shape, the sky, a dress, etc.

  6. Sprinkle glitter over the glue. Make sure to do both photographs. Let dry.

  7. Cover the back of one photo with double stick tape, lay the covered floral wire down the center, place the 2nd photo on top and press down to seal. Bend the wire to make the flag.

  8. Gather your greenery together in your hand. Fill the water pick with water and insert the bundle into the water pick.

  9. Press the water pick into the center of the oasis base.

  10. Cut a 24-inch square of the metallic netting.

  11. Wrap it around the oasis and the arrangement. Gather the netting around the base of the arrangement.

  12. Cut a length of ribbon and tie with a bow.
