Wreath of Infinity
Dried seeds have been glued onto a homemade wreath made of Oasis SEC blocks. This long-lasting base can be prepared in advance and reused. Wet bio-floral foam is placed in a cut-out slot, from which the flowers and other materials draw water. The compact floral wreath consists of various small-flowered chrysanthemums, complemented by orchids and Gloriosa. Vines of Ceropegia woodii break up the closed shape and add depth to the arrangement. Thanks to the combination of wet floral foam and long-lasting chrysanthemums, the funeral arrangement can be delivered several days before the funeral.
Transparent base
This bouquet was created using a 3D pen. I chose transparent filament for this project, but it’s available in all sorts of colors. For example, the bouquet takes on a completely different look in pink, yellow, or gold. Once the base was ready, I attached a simple handle using black florist’s wire. This forms the base of this hand-tied bridal bouquet. The flowers used are ranunculus, scabiosa, clematis, clematis ‘Kibo’ (feathery), white grape hyacinths, aster, and a few tendrils of Ceropegia woodii.
Hummingbird Christmas
The base of this bouquet is a cardboard frame made with pokes and pasted with leaves and judas pennant. On the top are tendrils of Ceropegia pasted, then the whole thing is waxed with candle wax. This beautiful base can be used several times. After this, iridescent artificial flowers were placed in the frame with beautiful fresh flowers in between such as the new GerSpecial Gerbera 'Chocoloco'. As a finishing touch, beautiful glitter hummingbird ornaments were hung on the flowers.
Sweeping
An Oasis basic holder in the shape of a heart was given a stem made of wire. To accentuate the heart shape a bit more, an extra layer of floral foam oasis was applied and finished with tape. The entire surface is sprayed copper-colored and then finished in several layers with deco sand (and glue spray). A sweeping wire construction with pink wooden flowers is placed over this. This is attached to the floral foam with copper-colored pins. The flowers are then glued into the arrangement: spray rose, (spray) chrysanthemum, Scabiosa stellata seed pods, lisianthus, Talinum ‘Long John’ and tendrils of Ceropegia woodii.Â
Mini copy
A mini copy of the bridal bouquet for the bridesmaid with the same materials and flowers but smaller. This way you create a cohesive whole. Part of the wire also forms the handle.
Infinite love
The circle as a symbol of infinite love is the inspiration for this bridal bouquet. The circles for the base are formed from pith reed and then woven together. By covering them with various fine flowers, an elegant and airy bridal bouquet with subtle contrasts is created. Flowers of Sandersonia, Fritillaria, violets, Talinum 'Long John' and tendrils of Ceropegia woodii were used.
