Delicate
This delicate arrangement, created on the new OASIS® Renewal Floral Foam, reflects Hanneke's signature style with a soft, pastel color palette. At its heart, a butterfly rests gently on a Chrysanthemum, its wings perfectly echoing the surrounding hues - a subtle yet striking detail. The composition feels light and romantic, yet rich in variety and texture, showcasing a refined sense of balance and elegance.
Mysterious
This arrangement was created in a tall brown vase with rounded shapes and a very narrow opening - far too small to hold such an abundance of flowers on its own. To solve this, Hanneke secured two blocks of OASIS® Renewal Floral Foam on top, allowing for a dramatic and expressive composition. The mood is dark and mysterious, with rich tones of deep red and burgundy adding elegance and depth. In the bold color palette, only the attentive viewer can discover a beautiful, delicate butterfly.
Reflection
A considerable number of rolled Magnolia leaves, with the velvety brown side facing outwards, are connected to each other using cocktail sticks. These rolls are used to fill an aluminum bowl in a similar brownish tint. Within this arrangement, the flowers of Clematis Amazing Sevilla are incorporated in a mirror image of the bowl. Note also the mirroring of the shape and color of the Magnolia rolls in the flower buds and petals.
Through and through Clematis
A bouquet consisting solely of Clematis. The circular frame is knotted and braided in a spiral motion from Clematis vines. Clematis Amazing Tokyo is incorporated over and through it in a wreath shape.
Catchy blue
The use of a Kenzan ring is extremely durable. Start with the thinner stems and clamp them, as it were, between the pins. Then work towards increasingly thicker stems. Cut the ends of the stems straight with very sharp (Ikebana) flower shears so that you can get the most force out of the clamping. Materials used: Delphinium and Clematis. Chasmantium latifolium grasses and Sorghum complete the arrangement.
Along the waterfront
Dried sunflower stems are the basis of this beautifully narrow and tall construction. The dried Typha cigars form the height of this summery arrangement. Flowers in blue tones, Centaurea, Delphinium, Scabiosa and Clematis ‘Star River’, together with the fresh green grasses, form an atmospheric 'along the waterfront' scene.
