Do you fancy warm weather and blooming flowers in the garden? Especially in the months of February and March, spring seems to be just a dream.

It doesn’t always have to be an arrangement in a vase: tree branches can also be staged on the wall with fresh flowers. Let your creativity run free and put individual flowers in the limelight.

So that the decoration lasts for a long time, you can opt for fabric flowers, otherwise you have to replace the flowers every two weeks and the wooden plate can discolour over time.
