You may have seen my recent post on 'Something Surprising' where I gave a little sneak-peek-of-a-hint at something I had in the works ...and this is it!

I waited to reveal this Burlap Floral Arrangement because it was to be a birthday gift I made for my daughter. I had plans to visit her after her birthday, so I had to keep it under wraps so to speak. She is all about the burlap, so when I saw the beautiful burlap flowers at Hobby Lobby my creative and crafty {not to mention sneaky} mind, was making plans!
My hopes were high of her liking this special gift, made with love from me. I was certainly pleased with it to the point of wanting it myself! Her delight at the sight of it said it all, just before she spoke the words "I love it!" And the smile to go along with it was all it took to convince me that she really did!

A view minus the burlap and lace bow. I figured she could decide with or without the bow to her liking, since I had another choice option with some jute twine.

Here it is looking like it belongs there on her dining room table. We tried the simple wrap of jute twine then tied into a bow and it was the favorite look, especially since the vase was so pretty on it's own. Plans were made to do something else with the other bows.
I love it when one of my creations, creates a smile!...
