Natural dialogue
This airy, organic arrangement is based on a handmade bowl made of recycled wooden slats and clay. From this natural foundation rise metal rods to which a network of spent quince branches is attached. A homemade leaf made of iron is carefully integrated into the composition. The materials used are fringed tulips, Allium, Anthurium, and flower clusters of Pieris. Jasmine vines meander around the construction, reinforcing the interaction between flowers and branches. Extra details such as Eucalyptus fruits and a moss-covered trunk give the work a rough, natural texture.
Wooden cylinders
In this ceramic bowl, various sizes of bare wood cylinders are placed – leftover wood from a stair maker. Many glass tubes of different sizes are clamped between the cylinders – this allows you to reuse the base endlessly. Many special varieties are incorporated into the tubes, such as beautiful fern curls, various orchids, Ranunculus, Ludisia, Clematis, Gloriosa, Talinum 'Long John', and beautiful, very dark Anthurium.
In Balance
For the base, a vase has been chosen in the same colors as the
arrangement. Subsequently, six black pokes are wrapped
with brown painter's tape, inserted into an Oasis Bio wreath and
bent and secured so that the wreath is higher on one side. The six
pokes are tied to a binding point so that they fit well in and
on the vase. Subsequently, dark brown rustic wire is wrapped
around the wreath in large strokes and secured downwards in a
waterfall shape.
First, the pink hydrangea and lisianthus varieties,
'Sabrina Orange' and 'Terracotta', are inserted. Subsequently, 'air'
is created with the other flowers: orange Gloriosa, hanging
Amaranthus, rosehip 'Zaffiro', Anthurium, orange spray
chrysanthemum, salmon-colored spray rose, Syngonium leaf, Rosa
'Esmeralda' and disbudded chrysanthemum. All flowers follow
the line of the waterfall-shaped construction. All tendrils and
long flower stems are additionally secured with binding wire.
Natural with colour
Flowers and various leaf shapes are formed from natural-colored Smithers Oasis Rustic Wire, each drilled into a wooden base of the natural foundation and then secured around the glass vases with Smithers Oasis paper wire. This immediately appears decorative, and the bases can be arranged in many different ways – truly all colors suit the neutral base. Here, Gloriosa, carnations, Talinum ‘Long John’, Japanese Allium, Guzmania, Anthurium, and Syngonium leaves have been chosen for some tranquility.
Rose disc
A thick, round MDF disc was used as the base for this table arrangement. Holes were drilled into this for the approximately 60 glass tubes. After drilling, clean the holes thoroughly and first spray with copper metallic paint. A braid of Talinum ‘Long John’ is made between the tubes – these will dry beautifully. The showstoppers in this arrangement are the Avelanche Peach roses! These are in the tubes together with a number of beautiful ranunculus, almost black Scabiosa and Anthurium. The base can be reused endlessly or even rented out.
Expressive
For a smaller budget, working on a Smithers Oasis bridy can be a solution. This bridy already has a very beautiful stem of its own. In principle, this bridal bouquet is arranged in a round shape, but the flowers are at very different heights because working with depth is very beautiful here. However, a number of expressive flowers have been incorporated that should not compete with each other and must all have their own place, so the placement of the materials is very important. The flowers used are Avalanche Peach roses, Scabiosa, Clematis fluff, orchids, Anthurium, ranunculus, germinis, Talinum 'Long John', and Sanguisorba.
