Ready to add a little extra magic to your holiday decor? Let’s turn your Great Lakes Living bouquet into the prettiest DIY Christmas ornament ever! Not only is this super easy, but it’s also the perfect way to bring a natural, handcrafted vibe to your tree. Bonus? You’ll be surrounded by the beauty of flowers all season long. Let’s get crafting!

What You’ll Need:

  • A Great Lakes Living bouquet (or your favorite flowers)
  • Clear plastic or glass ornaments (available at most craft stores)
  • Scissors or floral shears
  • Ribbon or string for hanging

 

Step 1: Prep Your Flowers

Start by picking out your favorite flowers from your bouquet. Using scissors or floral shears, remove the flowers from their stems, leaving just enough to work with (about an inch of stem, max). You can use whole petals, small blossoms, or even greenery to mix it up!

Pro Tip:

If your flowers are too fresh and you want them to last longer, let them air dry for a couple of days before crafting. The dried look adds a rustic touch!

Step 2: Fill Your Ornaments 

Take your clear ornament and gently remove the top. Begin filling it with your flowers, arranging them however you like. You can go for a full-on colorful mix, stick to one type of bloom, or even add little extras like glitter or tiny pinecones for extra sparkle. 

Step 3: Hang Your Masterpieces 

Once you’re happy with your arrangement, pop the ornament top back on and tie a ribbon or string through the loop. Hang it on your tree for instant festive vibes! 

Bonus: Sprinkle Your Bouquet 

If you’re feeling extra creative, use the rest of your bouquet to “sprinkle” flowers throughout your tree. Tuck small blossoms and greenery between branches for a unique, floral-themed Christmas tree that’s straight-up stunning.
