One of my favorite things about this point of the summer is that my uncle’s garden is starting to be in full bloom! He has a massive garden and lets us come pick bouquets whenever we want which means we always have flowers in the house. Nothing makes me happier than a fresh bouquet! I unfortunately am painfully bad at making bouquets. I just can never seem to get them to have a good shape or if I do, they just fall apart once I put them in a vase. So I decided to make these cute wooden floral stem holders which makes it so much easier! Also they’re just kind of adorable if I do say so myself. I think they would also make some really sweet gifts for the flower lovers in your life! And they don’t take too long to make either.
I drilled my holes straight down and it worked just fine with some droopy flowers and greens along the side but you could always drill the holes towards the outside of the circle at more of an angle. Also if you want a more full bouquet, you could always drill an even larger hole right in the center to fill in a few more stems at the end.
