DIY flower ring with test tube and peony
The peony is one of our favourite flowers. But instead of simply arranging them prettily in a vase, in this guide we show you how you can skilfully stage the perfection of the flower in a minimalist way in your home using a wooden ring, a test tube and some natural thread.
Materials required:
- Wooden ring
- Natural thread
- Scissors
- Double-sided adhesive tape
- Test tube
- Peony of your choice
- water
- Hot glue gun
Instructions for the peony decoration - we'll show you how it's done:
Step 1: Attach the adhesive tape to the glass
First, cut a small piece of double-sided adhesive tape and stick it to the top of the test tube so that it can be attached to the thread later.
Step 2: Position the test tube in the ring
For this step, it is best to get someone to help you and hold the whole thing. Position the glass in the centre of the ring so that it sits on the bottom of the ring frame. Then wrap the thread around the top of the test tube and around the ring at the same height. Repeat this step until the test tube is firmly seated in the frame.
Step 3: Attach the test tube
Attach the glass to the bottom of the frame with a little hot glue.
Step 4: Attach the hanger
Now all you need is a hanger. You can simply use a piece of natural thread for this and attach it to the frame with a loop.
That's it!
Now just add some water to the test tube, place the cut peony in it and your wall decoration is ready.
