YOU’LL NEED:  

• 6 to 12 water tubes (available at craft stores)
• Water

• 12 to 24 red roses 
• 2 to 4 rectangular baskets, approximately 4" tall and 10" long ($13; at Jo-Ann)
• Newspaper (enough to half-fill each basket)

Fill tubes halfway with water. Trim stems of roses. Insert two or three stems into each tube.
