Place mason jar inside larger paper lined vase. Add water to inner jar.  Cut ends of hydrangea blooms at an angle and place in the jar.  Arrange flower blooms so the flowers look good on all sides. Be sure to remove bloom leaves below water line so they do not rot in the water.

Add two small American flags as desired to vase.

Tip:  To keep the arrangement fresh change water every day. No need to add floral feed or protectant, just fresh water will keep your flowers happy.
