Source: Institute of Floristry

Soda glass
Shredded Styrofoam
Five standard pink carnations
One artificial white Carnation
One red long stem soda spoon

Fill the soda glass with Styrofoam. Fill it to the top of the glass and add water with preservative.

Cut the stems of five pink carnations to lengths of four inches. Insert the stems into the Styrofoam to make a mound shape.

Cut the stem of the white carnation to a length of six inches and insert it in the center of the red carnations to form a peak.

Glue a cherry or a rosebud on top of the white carnation.

Add two soda straws at a 45 degree angle near the lip of the container, and add the red spoon.

NOTE: The recipe can be made using artificial pink carnations also to make an everlasting arrangement.
