Orchids & Moss



Winter months can be so long and flowers can really brighten a room.  Orchids are available at most grocery stores and home improvement centers.  Sometimes I find orchids in full bloom at Costco.  When I buy them from the store they usually look like this.  Not bad.

These clips remind me of a hair bow used on a little show dog.  Orchids do need support, but what I normally do is remove the clip and wrap the stem in moss. 



I usually use sheet moss, but this time reindeer moss was what I had on hand.  Finally I hold the moss and orchid in place with raffia.  Much better.
