First select a bouquet of wildflowers that are all in the same color family. This is key to making the arrangements look imperfect, yet still purposeful. It’s also nice to have some different elements as part of the arrangement, like sharp thistle, which gives them all an unexpected twist. Then trim them so they’re all the same length.
Taking a square of burlap, wrap jars. Make sure to leave an extra 2-3 inches at the top in order for you to have enough room to cover the entire jar. Secure the burlap on the jar with a natural twine, keeping in line with the rustic feel.
Tie the twine in a bow and then take some scissors and cut off some of the excess burlap. Also round all of the points so they don’t look as severe.
Arrange the flowers in each of the jars, making sure they all look full and balanced.
The end result looks rustic and pretty, without being too precious.
