 This centerpiece is made by saturating a 3-inch sphere of floral foam with cool water and inserting short carnation stems in a  coiling pattern until the sphere is covered.  It will take about 50 carnations for each one.  If you place the bottom of the sphere in a saucer of water it should last for about a week.

4th of July Carnation Balls
The 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays.  Swimming, grilling, watching fireworks.  I love it all.  And it is only a month away!  I thought I would celebrate by showing you an idea I love from Country Living:

Ohhhh you could even die some of the carnations blue by letting them sit in water that has blue food coloring in it. Cool idea thanks for posting
I LOVE 4th of July. It is one of my favorite holidays. This idea is simple and great. Love it!!
American Flag cake is a great dessert for 4th July. I have read on Project Weight Loss the recipe. My kids appreciated it. It feels good when your family says you're a great chef. It isn't a hard recipe, but that will be my secret.
