Fill Your Vase: DIY Flower Arranging & Radical Self-Care
{By: Lauren Trunfio} A fresh bouquet of flowers can turn a dull space into an inviting and open one. It also sets any kind of mood you may desire in your household, whether it be for a romantic night in, or a celebration of any kind. We typically buy our bouquets from a florist, or even a local grocery store, but did you know that arranging flowers yourself is the new radical self-care method we are all dying to try? Face masks and bubble baths are great, but we’re always happy to support the new trends coming along, and diy flower arrangements is one of them! Read more down below to learn why flower arrangement and self-care go hand in hand.
Practice Creative Expression
Through arranging flowers, you are practicing a vital form of self-care which is creative expression! According to The Innerwork Center, creative expression is “the ability to use our minds and imaginations to creates something that represents ourselves.” What better way to express yourself through creating a flower arrangement that integrates all your favorite colors along with flower types? Also, because you are working with your hands to arrange your bouquets, you are able to mentally turn your mind off in order to become fully immersed in the project in which you are working on. This produces better outcomes in your projects, and in return has a positive impact on your mental state throughout the day.
