| Gerberas make ideal floating flowers. They can also be used in Christmas tree baubles that serve as water reservoirs. |
| Step 1 Collect your materials: mini Gerberas ‘Kimsey’ (17018) and ‘Café’ (23390), large and small Christmas tree baubles on stiff wires, feather garland , a piece of (fun) fur, pins, a metal bowl and a hollow glass bowl. |  |
| Step 2 Turn the glass bowl upside down and fill the hollow with fur. |  |
| Step 3 Cover the base of the bowl with small Christmas tree baubles. Using pliers, cut the baubles off the stiff wires. |  |
| Step 4 Fill the large baubles with water and lay them in a row in the bowl. Now fill the bowl with water. Their weight will keep the small baubles under water. |  |
| Step 5 Push a turquoise pin into the heart of the mini Gerberas, cut to the required length and then push them into the large Christmas tree baubles containing water or between the small baubles on the bottom. |  |
| Step 6 Stand the glass bowl on top of the Metal bowl. Decorate the Metal bowl with the garland of feathers and stand the finished arrangement on a festive tablecloth. |  |
