Craft Project - Silk Summer Flower Centerpiece by Wen Zientek-Sico This arrangement is one of my favorite silk flower arrangements. I have used it in my living room for years on a small side table as summer accent. The soft range of colors, pleasing form, and simple design make it timeless and something that you will never grow tired of. It is quick and easy to put together, taking only about 10-15 minutes. It also only cost about $7.00 to put together!
