Dry versus live

The special base of this bridal bouquet is made of dried and stabilized materials. Brown bark is glued to a Styrofoam half sphere; a burlap cord acts as a handle. The Oasis ring, glued to the half sphere, is filled with stabilized pale Eucalyptus and dried Lagurus plumes. Next, the living materials are incorporated: spray chrysanthemums 'Ellison Salmon' cover the vacant floral foam. Ranunculus 'Manuela' and spray roses 'Keijsers Coral' and Rosa 'Salty Caramel' provide trendy color. Also incorporated is bleached teasel (Dipsacus) as well as dried Papaver, Cymbidium 'Balou' and Dianthus 'Caramello'. Chrysanthemum 'Kalimba Salmon' is placed along one side and provides.

Winterfestoen

On an old piece of thick rope, a festoon has been twisted in a tile-like fashion, including holm oak (Quercus ilex), pistachio green (Pistacia vera), Eucalyptus gunnii, Callicarpa
bodinieri, Symphoricarpos 'White Hedge', Eryngium 'Silverstone', oregano, silver bush (Leucophyta brownii) and Hydrangea.

Spring Desire

The background is a wreath twisted from wild Clematis tendrils from the forest. The wreath is placed on a large enamel bowl with moss. On top of this, a number of Oasis bulbs have been placed that have been plastered with gray-white leaves for a winter atmosphere. The bowl is further filled with Amaryllis bulbs, Clematis fluff, leaves of Stachys, Senecio and Eucalyptus. The budding tips of green from the remaining bulbs of Narcissus 'Tête-à-tête' make one long for spring.

Winter Queen

A brief search at a garden statue dealer immediately produced the right Winter Queen. The beautiful bronze head was adorned with lush flowers and winter branches. On the back of the head, Oasis floral foam was used to create a base that was stabbed with tendrils of Hedera and hops. Between these, the flowers, branches and other winter materials were stabbed. Materials: Nerine 'Sophie', holly (Ilex verticillata), roses, Gloriosa, tiger lily, Clematis fluff, cotton branches, prepared dandelion, Eucalyptus berry and beans.

Winter Wonderland

This winter wonderland wreath, because only sober natural materials were used for this arrangement, reflects a real winter atmosphere. To make a big impact, an XXL size was chosen: the wreath has a diameter of 1.40 meters.

The wreath is tied on a metal ring incorporating various green materials. Among others, beautiful coarse Pinus strobus branches, silver fir, Eucalyptus with and without berry, Yew, thyme and larch apple branches.

Playful

In a beautiful mossy piece of cork, holes were drilled into which, increasing in length, Craspedia was inserted. Various materials were glued onto the cork, which dried nicely: seed pods of Eucalyptus 'Bellgum', rose hip and prepared oak leaves. To give the whole of this longer-lasting arrangement on cork a playful character, grasses were sandwiched between the glued materials.
