What's In This Picture

At the center of this page is a sturdy mason jar with its characteristic glass shape and thick rim. Inside the jar, several long stems reach upward, supporting a variety of blooms. You can see the distinct shapes of daisies with their many slender petals surrounding a round center. Mingled among them are poppies, identifiable by their larger, softer petals that look like they are fluttering in a light breeze. Plenty of leaves are scattered throughout the bouquet, adding texture and fullness to the arrangement. The entire scene rests on a flat table surface, providing a solid base for the floral display.

Coloring Tips

For the poppies, consider using vibrant shades of red, deep orange, or even a soft pink to make them stand out. The daisies look classic with white petals and yellow centers, but you can experiment with light purple or blue for a more whimsical look. To make the mason jar look like glass, try using very light strokes of pale blue or mint green around the edges, leaving the middle mostly uncolored to represent a reflection. The stems and leaves will look best in various shades of green, from lime to forest green, to create depth within the bouquet. For the table surface, light brown or tan can give it a warm, wooden appearance.

Did You Know?

Did you know that poppies come in almost every color of the rainbow? While red is the most famous, they can also be yellow, white, and even blue. Daisies are also very special because they are actually two flowers in one. The center is made of many tiny flowers, and the petals are another set of flowers.

Try This!

After you finish coloring, you might enjoy going on a nature walk to see if you can find any real daisies or poppies growing nearby. You could also try drawing your own version of a mason jar and filling it with different types of flowers you see in your neighborhood or garden.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I make the jar look like real glass?
Use very light shades of blue or green only around the edges and the rim, leaving the center mostly white to mimic the look of clear glass and light reflections.
What colors should I use for the poppy flowers?
Poppies are most famous for being bright red, but they also look beautiful in orange, pink, or even a sunny yellow.
Can I add more to the background?
Yes! You could draw a window behind the jar with a view of a garden, or add a patterned tablecloth to the surface the jar is sitting on.
For best results, print on standard letter size (8.5" x 11") paper using your printer's "Fit to Page" setting.
