Memorial Day Floral Arrangement


Question
I have many fresh Peonies that I would like to use to create Memorial Day arrangements for family graves.  The arrangements will be used at a National Cemetery, so they may only be displayed for a few days and then they will be picked up and disposed of.  Can I use a paper mache molded fiber vase with wet floral foam for the container, or would it fall apart from the moisture? Other than the flowers and filler, what other supplies will I need?  Thank you for your reply.

Answer
The mache containers do well for holding Oasis floral foam because they have a waterproof coating inside the container.  Another simple way is to line the inside with a plastic bag or liner for additional support.  Other than that there would be no additonal supplies needed - unless you would like ribbon and floral picks. But, that's about it.  I hope that I have helped even a tad bit.  Thank You for your question.  Janine
