Infinite love
A slab cut (plank with bark edge) can serve as an arrangement for a natural grave or as a temporary grave covering – until the headstone is placed. Heart shapes have been milled and sawn from the plank. Jute cloth is attached to the underside of the heart shapes. Sempervivum and Muehlenbeckia are planted in the heart shapes. The plants can root through the cloth so that the arrangement remains beautiful indefinitely.
Farewell
When creating such an arrangement, ask the relatives to bring a flower and also if they want to trace and cut out their hand on sturdy paper. Hang enough glass tubes in a tree in advance. Upon arrival, people slide their hand around the tube and place their brought flower in it.
Circle full of power
A circle radiates strength, is protective but also stands for perfection, infinity and friendship: characteristics that can symbolize the deceased. The base is a cardboard cat bed. The cardboard harmonica forms a beautiful natural base that can be unfolded in various round shapes. The shape is placed on a glass dish, then glass test tubes are placed in the openings of the harmonica. With loose (dried) flowers without glass, it is a nice alternative to a natural burial site – then it can completely blend into nature. Here, the glass tubes are filled with Abelia, Astrantia, Clematis, Crocosmia, Dahlia, Gomphrena, Houttuynia, Rubus, Scabiosa, Sempervivum and Viburnum.
Cherishing
A wooden bowl and a wooden pedestal form the basis of this urn arrangement. An Oasis wreath is placed on a bowl. Subsequently, ribbons of pith are stapled together and onto the pedestal and the bowl. Tendrils of Humulus lupulus (hops) are woven between the pith. The wreath is then arranged with flowers: hollyhock (Alcea rosea), garden roses, Campanula, and Passiflora. The urn is placed on a wooden cube in the middle of the wreath so that it rises nicely above the flower arrangement. Acer fruits and some poppy flowers complete it.
Yellow drop
To create this elongated teardrop, myrtle (Myrthus communis) is arranged in Oasis Bio on an elongated dish. A large yellow pompon chrysanthemum forms the basis of this arrangement. Yellow carnations with an orange touch provide an autumnal play of colours. Dried bay leaves are glued in pairs to a wrapping wire. These wired leaves are then arranged in the composition where they provide dynamism. As a finishing touch, Acer fruits are inserted into the oasis and partly scattered on the box.
In my heart
A heart remains a preferred shape for funeral flower arrangements. For this arrangement, a circle is cut from a wooden plate. Lotus leaves, Nelumbo nucifera, are coated with wallpaper paste on both sides and glued onto the circle. The greenery is arranged first in an Oasis Bio heart: Stachys leaves, Myrthus communis, and Acer leaves made of silk. Santini spray chrysanthemums and a few carnations provide the floral filling. After the base is completely dry, the heart shape is attached to the circle. Tendrils of Passiflora and Stipa grass provide a playful finish.
