Alyssa returned to her House Common Room and placed the basket of flowers and clippers on the table. She then dug into her pocket and took out some thimbles that she had kept with her from class.

She placed one thimble on the table in front of her and concentrated on what type of vase she wanted to transfigure and what color it would be. Then she concentrated on the spell. She practiced the incantation a few times. "FLORENEO...FLORENEO...FLORENEO". Once she was certain of the incantation, she practiced the wand movements. Taking out her wand she pointed it vertically down right next to the thimble and swished her wand clockwise and with every spiral she completed she moved her wand upwards and outwards away from the thimble. She needed to complete three circles before she said the incantation.

Alyssa took a deep breath, closed her eyes and concentrated on both the image of the vase and the spell, before opening her eyes, and performing the transfiguration spell. She pointed her wand vertically downwards as near to the thimble as possible. As she swished her wand in a clockwise spiral movement she made sure that as she swished her wand was moving upwards and outwards. "One circle, Two circle, Three...FLORENEO".

A beam of light shot out and engulfed the thimble. When the light disappeared and a glass blue vase stood in it's place. Alyssa clapped her hands in glee. Now she had to make sure that it wouldn't leak water. Picking up her wand, Alyssa pointed it inside the vase and said "Aguamenti". Water streamed out of the wand and filled the vase. She said "Finite" to end the spell before leaning forward to examine the vase for any leaks. After waiting a whole full minute, Alyssa determined that the vase was leakproof. Now all she had to do was place the flowers in it and make a presentable arrangement.

She first picked up the orange daisies, the yellow roses, taking care to remove the thorns from it, some of the blue flowers, some yellow flowers that looked like crab claws and some blueish black colored flowers. Alyssa arranged them this way and that, before picking up some of the green spiky fan leaves that she had cut earlier. She placed them at the back of the arrangement, one pointing up and the second stalk pointing down. She spread out the leaves, so that it looked like a pointy fan. Then Alyssa added more long leaves to finish off the arrangement.

Once she was done, she leaned back and admired her first floral arrangment and decided that it was the best she could do. Now for the second arrangement.
