Wet/dry gift arrangements and method for making

Abstract

A Wet/Dry Gift Arrangement and Method for Making is disclosed. The assembly and combination provides an aesthetically pleasing floral arrangement that serves as a superior gift as well. The assembly includes a lower dry gift container for placing and displaying candy, lotions and/or other miscellaneous gifts in a dry environment. Furthermore, the assembly includes an upper wet assembly that has live plants and/or flowers and the like. When the wet assembly and dry assembly are combined, the resulting article appears to be a conventional floral arrangement, while at the same time having a receptacle to display other desirable gifts.

1 . A plant/dry gift assembly, comprising: 
 a dry assembly comprising a dry vessel defining a bottom enclosed portion extending upwardly into a throat, said throat bounded on its exterior by throat walls and said throat terminating in a top opening, said dry vessel having non-perforated bottom portion walls; and    a wet assembly comprising a wet vessel said wet vessel defined by walls having an outer surface, said wet vessel having an enclosed bottom and an open top, said outer surface cooperating with said throat walls and not said bottom portion walls, wherby said wet vessel is insertable into said top opening but not into said bottom portion and said wet vessel top is substantially adjacent to said dry vessel top opening.    
   
   
       2 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said dry vessel further comprises a throat adjacent to said top opening, said wet vessel and said throat cooperatively arranged whereby said wet assembly is insertible into said throat.  
   
   
       3 . The assembly of  claim 1 , wherein said dry vessel is further defined by a dry chamber within which dry contents are retained, said dry chamber formed by said bottom enclosed portion.  
   
   
       4 . The assembly of  claim 3 , wherein the intersection of said bottom portion and said throat of said dry vessel is designed to permit said wet vessel to be placed into said throat, yet prevent said wet vessel from being placed into said dry chamber.  
   
   
       5 . The assembly of  claim 4 , wherein said dry contents comprise candy.  
   
   
       6 . The assembly of  claim 5 , wherein said wet assembly further comprises block of floral foam residing within said wet vessel.  
   
   
       7 . The assembly of  claim 6 , wherein said wet assembly further comprises a plurality of live plants inserted into said block of floral foam.  
   
   
       8 . The assembly of  claim 3 , wherein said dry contents comprise bath products.  
   
   
       9 . The assembly of  claim 3 , wherein said dry contents comprise at least one stuffed figurine.  
   
   
       10 . A combination flower arrangement and gift assembly, comprising: 
 a dry assembly comprising a dry vessel defining a bottom chamber formed by a bottom wall and bottom chamber side walls extending upwardly from said bottom wall, said bottom chamber side walls transitioning into a throat formed by throat side walls, said throat terminating in a top opening; and    a wet assembly comprising a wet vessel, said wet vessel configured to retain an arrangement of living plants and configured to cooperate with said dry assembly such that said wet vessel defined by an open top, said wet vessel is insertible into said dry vessel top opening, but prevented from being insertible into said bottom chamber and said wet vessel top is substantially adjacent to said dry vessel top opening.    
   
   
       11 . The combination of  claim 10 , wherein said dry vessel further comprises a substantially clear vessel defined by a throat adjacent to said top opening, said wet vessel and said throat cooperatively arranged whereby said wet assembly is insertible into said throat.  
   
   
       12 . The combination of  claim 11 , wherein said dry vessel is further defined by a dry chamber within which dry contents are retained.  
   
   
       13 . The combination of  claim 12 , wherein said dry vessel is designed to prevent said wet vessel from being placed into said dry chamber.  
   
   
       14 . The combination of  claim 12 , wherein said wet assembly further comprises block of floral foam residing within said wet vessel, and said wet vessel is made from substantially clear material.  
   
   
       15 . The combination of  claim 14 , wherein said wet assembly further comprises a plurality of live plants inserted into said foam block.  
   
   
       16 . A method for assembling a plant/dry gift assembly comprising the steps of: 
 assembling a wet assembly defined by a wet vessel;    assembling a dry assembly defined by a dry vessel having a dry chamber within which dry contents are placed; and    inserting said wet assembly into said dry assembly.    
   
   
       17 . The method of  claim 16 , wherein said wet assembly assembling step comprises inserting an oasis block means into said wet vessel prior to said inserting said wet assembly into said dry assembly.  
   
   
       18 . The method of  claim 17 , wherein said wet assembly assembling step comprises inserting live plants into said oasis block means prior to said inserting said wet assembly into said dry assembly.  
   
   
       19 . A method for assembling a plant/dry gift assembly comprising the steps of: 
 assembling a wet assembly defined by a wet vessel, an oasis block means and live plants inserted into said oasis block means;    assembling a dry assembly defined by a dry vessel having a dry chamber within which dry contents are placed; and inserting said wet assembly into said dry assembly.    
   
   
       20 . A plant/dry gift assembly, comprising: 
 a dry assembly comprising a dry vessel defining a bottom enclosed portion extending upwardly into a throat, said throat bounded on its exterior by throat walls and said throat terminating in a top opening, said dry vessel having non-perforated bottom portion walls; and    a wet assembly comprising a wet vessel said wet vessel defined by walls having an outer surface, said wet vessel having an enclosed bottom and an open top, said outer surface cooperating with said throat walls and not said bottom portion walls, whereby said wet vessel is insertable into said top opening but not into said bottom portion and when said wet vessel is inserted into said throat, said wet vessel outer walls are in direct contact with said throat inner walls.
