O CHILLY-CHIC COOLER

Setting fragrant garden blooms afloat in

a beverage bucket filled with water and

ice creates a surprisingly stylish accent,

says Winslow. To do : Fill a clear ice

bucket^3 ⁄ 4 full with cold water and 2 cups

of ice. Place bottles of water, seltzer or

wine inside. Snip a garden rose stem to

8" and add to water. The finishing touch:

Snip three garden roses and one mari-

gold to 1" and simply float them on top.

Impress guests at your next gathering

with the latest party trend: tabletop

accents infused with flowers and ice!

Here, design pro Cassie Winslow, author

of Floral Libations, shares easy ideas

guaranteed to cool down your crowd

OTOO-CUTE ICE CUBES

The key to creating floral ice

cubes that will take any beverage

from plain to so-pretty? “Gradually fill

and freeze trays with water so the blooms

are perfectly centered in each cube, rather

than floating at the top,” says Winslow.

To do : Fill wells of an ice cube tray^1 ⁄^3 of the

way with water; freeze. Add 1 edible bloom

(like organic borage) to each well, then add

water until wells are^2 ⁄ 3 full; freeze. Fill wells

to the top with water; freeze.
