How to turn a supermarket bouquet into a lusher, more personalized flower arrangement

If your heart is telling you to give a luxurious bouquet of flowers, but your wallet is saying shop at the supermarket, fear not. With a little imagination, you can transform a simple, low-cost bouquet into a stunning floral arrangement. Start by choosing classic, fragrant flowers like roses and lilies. When you get them home, trim the stems at an angle. Remove leaves below the waterline and place the flowers in a vase to hydrate. Place the tallest stems at the back and layer in shorter blooms toward the front for balance. Grab some greenery and filler flowers from your garden or a store. Finally, add personality by displaying your bouquet in something other than a plain glass vase. Maybe a pitcher or a vintage Mason jar. Get creative.
