We received a lovely boquet on a special day from our dear friends. It brought such a nice smile in the morning hours as it arrived unexpectedly.
When it started losing its life after two days, I didn't want to throw it. So it was left on the table for a week.
Suddenly an idea struck me. I left it dry completely for a fortnight. Removed the dried flowers and retained the stems and leaves.
Planning to add few more decorative flowers and things to it. But I could not resist sharing it with you, hence here I am sharing with you the revived boquet (I know I cannot bring life into it, but made my level best to revive it in my way) which painted using acrylic colours.

What an awesome idea--my mum has so many artificial flowers some decades old-- wonder if she will let me pain them-- ha ha guess I will show her your blog to convince her!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Sonia. I am sure She will be more happy to give it to you.

Thank you Mahi. I forgot to take the picture when boquet was fresh.
