Flower arrangement with lily of the Nile and solidagos



This is a very simple flower arrangement that will cost you less than $ 7 dollars. You only need a middle-sized flowerpot with an angel model, lily of the Nile and solidago flowers.



Firstly, you will take 4 stems of lily of the Nile flowers and cut them in a diagonal shape making them to stand out a bit from the vase, afterwards you shall remove the leaves from the solidagos and put them around the lily of the Nile. If the lily of the Nile flowers do not stay in the center, tie them with a cord.
