Step 1
get you're supplies! you can use any size of pot(s) for these, just make flowers bigger. i bought my little pots at dollar tree.
-
Step 2
i used the turorial here to make these flowers, but i also found another way to do it, but this method worked best for smaller flowers.

Step 3
i used a blade to cut out a grass design from foam and used hot glue to glues it on. felt would work well too , but it's harder to use a blade with felt. but honestly think it would look better
-
Step 4
i couldnt wait any longer so i didnt buy that green spongy thing that they use to keep flowers in place( dunno what it's called), so insted i used a piece of styrofoam from a package. and colored the top green so it could atleast blend somewhat.
-
Step 5
stick your flowers onto the styrofoam. (i had to stick a whole with the scissors first.)
-
Step 6
i made"grass" out of green paper to cover up the ugly styrofoam.
cut (a lot of)thin strips about an inch long, and fold like acordians. -
Step 7
place grass on top, and you're done:D! put anywhere:D i did this over a period of 3 days. i put 3 hours because i spent about an hour those days doing it.(i work slow)
what took long was cutting out the foam grass and making the paper strips into accordians:P the flowers were simple(:
