With the "high holiday" Jewish holiday season now at hand, together with the fall season, now is a wonderful time to create beautiful DIY fall floral arrangements.

Or maybe that hanging floral arrangement over the table? (I'm dreaming of that!) Faux flowers can also be used as flower diffusers to give a nice scent to a bathroom. laundry room or bedroom, so do consider that as well.

I love the combination of the formal roses with the rustic basket, and take note that the flowers sit just above the rim of the basket. Of course you can also opt to let flower delivery Sydney take care of the flowers for you if the DIY option just does not fit into your busy schedule!

Also, you might like to start with the notion of thriller, with is generally the tallest, filler which is clustered around the bottom and middle, and spiller which may go below the line of the vase, and see where that takes you!
