Freshly cut grass, glinting sunshine and alfresco dining. It can only mean one thing… hello summer, old friend.
And what better way to welcome its warm embrace than by creating your own LEGO® Botanicals basket full of blooms. So, grab your gingham, fetch your basket and let’s assemble...
Before you dip into the flowers, first decide what kind of basket you’d like to showcase your display in. Will it be classic cottagecore with wicker or a rattan picnic basket? Woven or fabric? Earthy wood or picket-fence white? Pick one that best fits your theme and vision.
Want to give the impression you’ve been skipping through the fields, basket in tow, picking the freshest flowers for your display? The LEGO Botanicals Daisies set is a dainty classic you can’t go wrong with. With a little ladybird perched on a stem, they hit that plucked-from-nature brief – easy, breezy.
Or for something a little bolder, the LEGO Botanicals Sunflower Bouquet set works wonders to give your display that golden glow and countryside charm.
Whether it’s daisies or sunflowers, there’s a bundle with that field-fresh feel suited to you.
Why have just one flower when you can have all the bright and quirky blooms? Choose complementary colors and build a bouquet that will sit snugly in your basket. You could whip up the LEGO Botanicals Wildflower Bouquet set with cornflowers, lavender, larkspur, lupins and more. Or why not create a mixture of your own carefully selected LEGO Botanicals?
Basket full of flowers complete, but still missing a little something to bring it all together? Add texture and pattern with a checkered gingham cloth or delicate floral linen to line the basket and complement the flowers. If your basket has a handle, you could wrap a ribbon around it. Or, for more miniature details, tie tiny bows in the gaps of the basket.
Want to add a bit more storytelling to your display? You could attach hang tags with handwritten notes like ‘Freshly picked’ or simply write out the name of the flowers in a stylish font.
Seize the sunshine and enjoy building your basket full of LEGO Botanicals blooms!
