Fine-tune your botanical knowledge with five ground rules for creating picture-perfect flower centerpieces every time. San Francisco-based floral designer Matilda\u2019s Magnolias sets up an easy-to-follow list of tips that will help you create floral decor for your next outdoor party<\/a> or get imaginative with the same bouquet of flowers<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n

Here\u2019s a quick run-down of the guidelines: start with foliage to build the base, use all components in odd numbers for a natural look, groom and shape blooms by plucking outer protecting petals and blowing into flowers to create shape, add the standout flower to the foliage, and lastly, add textural elements. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","post_title":"5 Key Elements of a Perfect Floral Arrangement","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"5-key-elements-of-a-perfect-floral-arrangement","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2019-02-11 10:26:29","post_modified_gmt":"2019-02-11 18:26:29","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.sunset.com\/?p=104895","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"}],"stories_row_1_bottom":[{"ID":99120,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2018-02-28 00:00:00","post_date_gmt":"2018-02-28 00:00:00","post_content":"

Follow these steps to repot your orchid after buying a new plant or when potting chips have decayed<\/p>\r\n\r\n

\r\n
Sunset<\/span><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n
\r\n
\r\n\r\nYou\u2019re the proud new owner of a beautiful orchid<\/a>, but you need to rescue it from its temporary home and pot it in more permanent digs. While orchids are delicate, repotting them is easy as long as you have the proper materials and these tips on hand.\r\n\r\nYou\u2019ll need a series of pots<\/a> to comprise your orchid\u2019s new home. First, a slotted pot that allows for drainage; next, a plastic liner that collects runoff water; and finally a beautiful outer pot for decorative flair. You\u2019ll also need branches for staking, as well as potting bark and moss to cover it up.\r\n\r\nThe trick is to pour boiling water over the potting bark and letting it cool before lining the slotted pot with it; the boiled water prevents bacteria from building up. Next, remove moss from the orchid\u2019s roots and place on top of bark layer. Fill in the pot with more bark to stabilize your plant. A chopstick can be used to tamp down bark.\r\n\r\nPlace inside the plastic liner and then inside the pot. Top off with moistened moss for a finished look. Swap out branches (we like dogwood) for the stakes the orchid came with; secure them with loosely tied raffia or twine.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

This quick tutorial explains how to install wallpaper that gives any pantry, closet, or cabinet an instant facelift. While the process itself is simple and easy, you'll need to be prepared, as this weekend project requires quite a few handy tools like a scraper, sponge, plastic spreader, putty knife, measuring tape, primer, scissor, utility knife, paste, and paint roller.<\/p>\n

To start, make sure walls are clean and free of any dust. Use wall covering primer before you start to make hanging and removal easy, and measure the wall section you\u2019re covering. Once the panels are placed on the wall, smooth and remove any bubbles, use a putty knife to crease and cut edges, and then squeeze any additional bubbles out again.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","post_title":"Tips for Hanging Wallpaper","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"tips-for-hanging-wallpaper","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-03-10 14:32:21","post_modified_gmt":"2020-03-10 21:32:21","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.sunset.com\/?p=104710","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":99119,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2018-02-28 00:00:00","post_date_gmt":"2018-02-28 00:00:00","post_content":"

If your weekend doesn\u2019t consist of a luxurious wellness retreat<\/a>, fear not: DIY bath salts are an easy way to bring some relaxation into your home. Make these on your own, gift them to a friend, or put together a batch for an out-of-the-box wedding favor<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n

To make these bath salts, start by mixing salt with crumbled florals or herbs. Add a natural oil like coconut oil or jojoba oil, mix everything together, and then scoop the mixture into a vase or mason jar. Finish by sealing the jar with your favorite twine, fabric, or ribbon. <\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","post_title":"How to Make Dried Floral Bath Salts","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"how-to-make-dried-floral-bath-salts","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2019-11-13 12:12:21","post_modified_gmt":"2019-11-13 20:12:21","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.sunset.com\/?p=105366","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":113047,"post_author":"13","post_date":"2018-11-29 11:29:47","post_date_gmt":"2018-11-29 19:29:47","post_content":"

Natural dyes can produce thousands of shades of colors from pigment derived from nuts, leaves, fruit, and other foodstuffs. Dye made from an avocado pit, as Graham Keegan<\/a> demonstrates in this video, produces a beautiful muted pink.<\/p>\n

Start by soaking your bandana in soy milk to make the fabric more receptive to the dye. Any natural fiber like cotton will work best. Wring it out and hang to dry. Meanwhile, save and wash four avocado pits. Add them to a blender along with water. Blend the fresh pits into a fine, bright orange slurry. Strain the slurry through a cheesecloth into a large pot. Keep the cheesecloth in the pot to add extra color. Soak and wring out the bandana before folding and tying with strings or rubber bands. Bring the dye to a simmer and add the bandana. Immerse and simmer for 1 hour, stirring intermittently. Remove the ties and finish with a rinse under a faucet until the water runs clear.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","post_title":"How to Make an Avocado-Dyed Bandana","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"how-to-make-an-avocado-dyed-bandana","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2020-08-04 15:41:21","post_modified_gmt":"2020-08-04 22:41:21","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.sunset.com\/?p=116275","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":113049,"post_author":"13","post_date":"2018-11-29 11:34:03","post_date_gmt":"2018-11-29 19:34:03","post_content":"

\n\nVibrant, delicious, and nutrient-rich, sweet potatoes<\/a> can be a filling and healthy alternative to regular potatoes when the cold weather strikes. This sweet potato crostini recipe is no exception, and what's more, it puts a lighter twist on the traditional bread-based appetizer.\n\nStart by cutting the sweet potato into slices on angle (as you would an apple). Season with olive oil, salt, and pepper to taste. Mix with your hands to combine.\n\nNext, line a baking sheet with the slices, roasting in the oven until browned. While the potato slices are warm, layer on slices of brie. Sprinkle on pistachios and diced pancetta, too, and bake some more. The cheese should melt just slightly into the sweet potato. Remove from heat and scatter fresh thyme on top before serving to your guests.\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

[acf field=\"byline\"]<\/p>\r\nSix national parks<\/a>, one highway. This is an American road trip you don\u2019t want to miss. Start in Glacier National Park<\/a> and take in the views of Swiftcurrent Lake, the wildflowers at Logan Pass, and the rapidly receding glaciers that gave this park its name. If you have time, stroll Cedars Nature Trail or catch the first rays of light at Two Medicine Lake. Head south through the heart of Montana into Yellowstone<\/a> for year-round beauty at Yellowstone Falls. Keep an eye out for animal sightings at Mammoth Hot Springs, and rise early to avoid the crowds and get clear photos of the unforgettable geysers. A little farther south you\u2019ll make your way into Grand Teton<\/a> with its majestic mountains and the famous Jenny Lake. Detour off the main drag to see some of the park\u2019s best sights, including Schwabachers Landing, roaming bison, and the winding Snake River. Further along U.S. 89 is Bryce Canyon<\/a>, home to stunning red rock formations. Head to Bryce Amphitheater before sunset to see the rocks come alive. Once the sky is dark you\u2019ll have a clear view of the Milky Way. Follow the rocks into Zion National Park<\/a> to walk The Narrows and see the canyon from the bottom up. Explore the desert oasis at Emerald Pools\u2013the upper pool is harder to reach, but it\u2019s worth the extra effort. Hike Angels Landing before packing up and making your way to the Grand Canyon<\/a>. Wake up early to see the sun rise and slowly light up the canyon walls. Break away from the car for a donkey ride along the South Rim. Don\u2019t miss the Grand Canyon Skywalk for knee-shaking views of the Colorado River and the canyon floor beneath you. Horseshoe Bend and Havasu Falls are also great stops for once-in-a-lifetime memories.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>","post_title":"Epic National Parks Road Trip","post_excerpt":"Joyride along U.S. 89, which connects six of the country\u2019s greatest parks and winds through some of the West\u2019s most iconic landscapes","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"travel-outdoor-adventure-national-parks-road-trip","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2019-06-04 10:03:16","post_modified_gmt":"2019-06-04 17:03:16","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"http:\/\/www.sunset.com\/travel\/outdoor-adventure\/national-parks-road-trip","menu_order":0,"post_type":"post","post_mime_type":"text\/html","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":18280,"post_author":"1","post_date":"2017-06-20 00:00:00","post_date_gmt":"2017-06-20 00:00:00","post_content":"
