Zwierig
This movable bouquet, worn across the wrist, was made from a base of Craspedia 'Paintball Pop' and Limonium 'Max Diamond'. It was then decorated with Astrantia 'Roma', Scabiosa Bon Bon Scoop 'French Vanilla', Clematis Amazing Havanna, Helleborus 'Anna's Red', lisianthus 'Botanic Pink', Peperomia carperata, Narcissus and Nerine.
Lavender cake
Around an organic cake pan from Smithers Oasis, to make it waterproof, a layer of cellophane is
wrapped. An elastic band is placed around the mold, between which the placed lavender stems are clamped. After enough lavender has been placed around the form, the whole thing can be secured with waterproof
tape and then nicely finished with ribbon and thread. Fresh flowers are placed in the (wet) floral foam including Helleborus, Clematis, Gloriosa, Phalaenopsis, Talinum 'Long John' and Echeveria succulents. Matching baubles and handmade stars made of purple aluminum wire add cachet.
Circled
With black wrapping wire, pine cones are attached to each other by making two wreaths around each other. This creates two rows of pine cones. An iron ring was incorporated into the inner row to create strength after which the whole thing was placed on a frame of black pokes: the basis for a hand-tied bouquet. The bouquet features flowers in beautiful shades of purple, brown and salmon: Clematis (including C. Amazing Kibo), Helleborus, chrysanthemum, Scabiosa, Zantedeschia, lisianthus, Echeveria succulents and Kalanchoe beharensis foliage.
Winter cloche
This plant arrangement includes Gaultheria procumbens, pearlberry (Pernettya 'Rosea') and Helleborus orientalis. In this self-braided basket of willow twigs, the excellent willow twigs are woven together with bright pink wicker into a protective wicker cloche that provides security and "warmth" for the plants. The red pearl berries form a beautiful play of colors with the bright pink wicker.
Winter Happiness
An oval-shaped pot is filled with Oasis floral foam. The base of this stitched arrangement are Amaryllis bulbs in different sizes and branches with larch and pine cones. Between these are incorporated different flowers, candelabras with handmade candles, pine cones, cinnamon sticks and dried lotus fruits. Green materials: Helleborus, Nerine 'Sophie', prepared dandelion, pimpernel (Sanguisorba), Salix catkins and wild Asparagus.
