The creator, Kate Lewis, installs half-sphere glasses on the wall within a picture frame, holding the flowers in place.
And the best part? You don't have to worry about the flowers wilting because they're constantly hydrated!
This idea is perfect for anyone who wants to add a breathtaking touch to their home. Plus, it's super easy to create and customize to your liking.
Best Flowers to Use
Now, you might be wondering what flowers to use for this hack. Well, you can use any flower that fits the glasses.
But it is recommended to use hydrangeas, as Kate did in the video.
Here are other types of flowers you might want to add to your living wall art:
- Roses
- Sunflowers
- Peonies
- Daisies
- Carnations
These flowers come in different colors and sizes, so you can mix and match them to create a unique and beautiful 3D art piece.
Your Easy-To-Follow Guide
Follow these easy steps to create your 3D flower art masterpiece that will last for days.
1. Choose your frame and vases
You can use any frame you like and attach vases to it. You can find any shape of glasses at your local craft store or online.
See these wall-hanging vases on Amazon.
2. Choose your flowers
Pick your favorite flowers that fit the vases. You can choose one type of flower or mix and match different styles. Go for the rainbow!
3. Fill the wall-attached vases with water
Fill the glasses with water and securely attach them to the frame or wall.
4. Trim the flower stems
Trim the stems slightly at an angle before placing the flowers in the vases. This will help the flowers absorb water better.
5. Arrange the flowers
Place the flowers in the glasses and arrange them to your liking. You can create a pattern or a random arrangement (unleash the artist in you).
6. Hang it up
Once you're happy with the arrangement, hang your 3D flower art on the wall.
To keep the flowers fresh, change the water in the vases every other day and trim the stems slightly every time you change the water.
Seeing positive feedback on creative projects like this one is always great!
