Spring Flowers in Repurposed Metal Containers

I'm ready for Spring!

And since there are no flowers to be seen outside, I've decided to bring Spring inside by creating some flower arrangements in unexpected vases.

A while back I showed you how I transformed old metal pockets by giving them a shiny new coat of paint...

Today I'm filling them with flowers for a burst of Spring.

I cut a styrofoam ball in quarters and hot glued one of the pieces into the bottom of this metal pocket.

I cut pieces of faux flower stems and arranged them in the pocket. I covered the stems and the edges with a little Spanish moss as filler.

And I didn't stop there... 

Vintage coffee pots and tea pots were also filled 
with beautiful faux flowers. The small bouquets of flowers
they sell at Michael's look almost like the real thing.
