Thanks to their diverse colours and shapes, poinsettias fit effortlessly into any interior design style. The experts at Stars for Europe (SfE) present stellar Christmas decorations that will dazzle young and old alike. Cream poinsettias and dried flowers look beautiful in DIY vases made from Christmas baubles. For this elegant upcycling idea, you will need white lustre baubles, log slices (for example, birch wood), a hot glue gun and glue sticks, cut poinsettias and dried flowers. They are so easy to make. Simply remove the little caps from the baubles and, with the opening at the top, attach them to the log slices using hot glue. Fill each bauble vase with dried flowers and cut poinsettias. Place several vases together on your Christmas table for a striking centrepiece. Tip: Cut poinsettias will stay fresh in clean water for up to two weeks if, immediately after cutting, you first dip the cut ends in hot water (approx. 60°C) for a few seconds, then straight into cold water.
