With my floral background, I have a natural tendency to keep fresh arrangements in my house at all times. I do realize, however, that some people struggle with a bouquet and that it can take a lot of blooms (and a lot of money) to make a big impact.
A single frond of a large leafed plant makes a really big impact and can highlight a beautiful vase instead of competing with it.
I bought this one stem at Michael’s for just $5 and bent the stem so that the leaf fell right over the top of the vase opening. I chose a hammered silver vase with a lot of shine to really pop off the dark table runner. It makes a huge impact and it really cannot get anymore simple than this. If you struggle at all with flower arrangements, this is the ‘wow’ factor floral for you!
A fresh, no fuss, big impact way to start your week!

That is a great idea. And you are right it definitely looks great.
I am the worst when it comes to keeping plants alive, so I think I could actually manage this one! Thanks for sharing!

I love your dining room chairs, where did you find them?
Hi Deb – My chairs were from a wholesale store in Cinci, but here is a link to similar! http://rstyle.me/hwg4hdn3ee
Love it! I struggle with plant-life in general and yet I pine for a home full of them. I’ve been pinning a lot of images with big leafed plants and branches lately. Thank you for the inspiration!
