Spring Flowers

Sadly, this is Ohio, so the only Spring flowers I'm seeing are the one's in the flower section of Michael's lol! I put these together to lighten up the living room. I had purchased the container's from Michael's a few years back on clearance, and the flowers are a combination of what I had, and me taking advantage of their 50% off sale. I won't even go into the story of me trying to find the floral foam I had downstairs. The short version is...I looked for an hour, gave up, ask hubby if he saw it, and he actually new where it was?!
