If you're saying, "Flower what?"
Don't feel bad. A lot of people have never heard of flower frogs.
There are many kinds. The ones I have are glass with holes all over.
If you are trying to make a simple floral arrangement and it looks similar to this
then you could benefit from a flower frog.
They are used to hold flowers upright in a vase.
Just put the frog into a vase
And stick a floral stem in each hole
Fill with water
And you have a vase of flowers that stand upright
They are truly a handy tool for floral arranging.

Hi Zoey,
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comment on my blog. I am originally from MI, went to HS in Detroit many moons ago.
Nice blog you have there, I'll be back!
Why don't I have one of those? I'm going to get me one! What a handy dandy tip. Thanks Zoey. The flowers looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Qfitzy. What a small world. Did you decide to leave that border on your quilt?
ReplyDeleteKerri, it would work great with those beautiful coneflowers you have!
I also like the kind that look like a hedgehog - a small forest of spines that you pierce the stems with. Works with any sized flower.
ReplyDeleteI need to find the glass kind, that one I don't have.
Frogging in cross stitching means to 'rip-it' out-LOL
ReplyDeleteSome people (probably Martha Stewart) collect these.
My Mom bought me a beautiful one that sits on a little silver bowl. It looks so sweet covered with tiny flowers. I thought it was a candle holder at first.
ReplyDeleteJenn,
ReplyDeleteI've seen those hedgehog ones, but don't own one. Maybe one of these days.......
Dianne, I think Martha does collect these. It seems I have seen her talking about them on one of her shows.
Sabine, The tiny one on a silver bowl sounds like it would make a very cute little bouquet. You will have to make one this summer and show us!
