1) Unwrap bunch of tulips and rinse the stems so they are free of the excess sandy dirt at the bottom of the stems. Because tulips are bulb flowers, they tend to retain soil at the bottom.
2) Gently peel away loose, droopy or yellowing leaves. Remember to hold the flower in a solid spot toward the top, just under the bloom with one hand and peel the leaves with the other. Leave only enough greenery to accent the flowers and make sure they are not too bulky to fit in the canister.
3) Bunch together loosely in your hands and arrange the blooms so that they are on an even plane. Single flower arrangements look chic if you keep them in a tight cluster.
4) Measure against the container and cut the stems so that the blooms sit almost at the neck of the container.
5) Rearrange as you see fit! You can always place them in the canister, decide you need to remove more leaves or adjust the height and replace!
6) Add lily grass loop (see below) – tuck in with your tulips and enjoy!
