Floral Arrangement - Purple Wildflowers

These purple flowers, or periwinkle, derived from  Myrtle herb (Vinca minor), are very hardy.  It is a perennial and grows wild in our backyard.

Periwinkle is one of my favorite colors as it combines the blue and purple; all of which has a calming effect on me and makes me smile!

PURPLE FLOWERS



  I love bringing the outdoors in.  These flowers are themselves very beautiful.  But, I enjoy enhancing the colors of the flowers  by accessorizing them with a variety of vases. 

Here are 4 Purple-accented Floral Designs:
 
Design 1- with green pot  

 
 
Design 2 - with two other  vases filled with single stems I found these two vases from the dollar store and they are perfect for this flower arrangement 
.



Design 3
For this flower arrangement, I used my white water jug as a vase to enhance the whitish color in the middle of the flower. 



Design 4
For a more dramatic effect, I bought a few white daisies  to add to this arrangement.  TA-DA --  a vibrant flower arrangement for hardly any cost at all!
