The best part about this project is that you can create your very own unique masterpiece with very little money (we spent $13.00 total on 2 arrangements and have left overs to make more!)! Arrangements like these found in stores retail for at least 3 times the price, if not more!
My husband and I made 2 arrangements of flowers and rocks to place inside of our shelves. We decided to get creative and had a blast working on our project together!

Materials:
Small Rocks or glass rocks (comes in a mesh bag) - Dollar Tree
Glass vase/jar - Dollar Tree
Fake Greenery and/or fake flowers - Dollar Tree
Wonder Water (gel water) - you can find this at most craft stores such as Michael's Crafts
Directions:
Start by arranging your rocks or glass rocks in the bottom of your glass vase or jar. Fill the vase/jar with as many or as little rocks as you wish, as this is your creation!
Second, take your greenery and flowers, cut the stems to the length you would like them to be sticking out of the vase/jar and arrange them as you wish, wedging them between the rocks.
Last step is to (following preparation directions on the bottle) pour the Wonder Water on top of the rocks as high up as you would like to see the "water". Let your masterpiece sit for at least 10 minutes before picking it up to allow the Wonder Water to solidify.
Stand back and look at how beautiful your arrangement is!
