  1. Place the floral foam heart in a bucket of water and let it sink to the bottom so it is properly soaked.
  2. While the heart is soaking, prep the flowers. Trim the stems to approximately 4cm long cutting them at an angle for extra stabbing power. Remove any bruised petals.
  3. Remove the foam heart from the water, drain and place on a flat working surface.
  4. Starting at the top of the heart, push the flower stems into the foam at a uniform depth all around the outside edge.
  5. Continue inserting the carnations until you have completely covered the heart. See image 3.
  6. When finished, store in a cool place (not the refrigerator). When ready to give it to your sweetheart, don't forget to adorn it with a note and some tender words.
