*Flowers too fall short for the vase? Place stems in a plastic drinking straws before arranging.
*Vase too deep? Fill it with marbles prior to adding water and flowers
* Wilted flowers? Snip about an inch off the ends and stand them in hot water for about 20 to 30 minutes before returning to a vase of clean, cool water.
*Make sure floral foam is saturated with water before adding flowers.
*Arrange large flowers first, then follow with smaller blossoms and greenery.
