Pampas grass jacket
The base of this natural vase is
a number of Paperweb bouquet holders
that have been crafted into a vase shape with
an Oasis Lady placed centrally.
The shape is covered with plastic foil,
then pasted with pampas grass and
attached to an iron stand that
has been pre-covered with banana leaf.
White Cymbidium orchids and carnations
are inserted into the floral foam
– the flowers are, as it were,
cherished by the grass.
The whole is finished with cotton fluff
(Gossypium), white Limonium
and Acacia twigs – which creates a
playful counter-movement.
Cymbidium bell jar
In two glass containers, layers of Oasis Terrabrick Floral
Media have been applied. Carefully pour some water over it until
the floral medium is just below water level. Arrange the Cymbidium
flowers and cotton wool branches (Gossypium) in the container and
wedge them together. The beautiful Cymbidium comes into its own
in this combination with the cotton wool branches.
Trendy natural scene
On two biodegradable banana leaf dishes, a block of floral foam is placed, the sides of which are covered with leaves of Aristolochia. Subsequently, the position of the Cymbidium is first determined. Artemisia and some cotton flowers (Gossypium) are placed in between. Subsequently, chestnuts placed on toothpicks and Miscanthus – with Aristolochia leaf rolled over the stems – are incorporated into the arrangement. ‘The bronze-colored Cymbidium fits in perfectly with the autumn trend in terms of color. In this trend, the collection and study of objects or materials from nature is also important. In this arrangement, material colors are constantly reflected in the flowers used – the dark chestnuts, the bronze sheen on the Miscanthus plumes, the light-colored cotton flowers.’
Contemporary elegance
Several tall vases are covered with tape, and stabilized leaves are glued onto them with a glue gun.
Subsequently, a few pussy willow branches are attached to each vase with binding wire, as well as branches from
tulip trees (Liriodendron) and cotton wool branches
(Gossypium). A combination of beige,
bronze and ochre-colored Cymbidium is suitable in the vases – a color spectrum
that perfectly matches the trend colors of winter
2023. A few tubes are also attached to the branches –
in order to place flowers lower in the arrangement as well.
The tall, narrow vases give the Cymbidium flowers an
elegant effect in this beautiful composition with the different
vases, walnuts and tulip tree leaves.
