Transparent
In a frame wrapped with different colors of wool, glass tubes are incorporated. The transparency creates an intriguing counter arrangement for a company that also takes up little space. Easy to refresh by replacing the flowers in the tubes. Materials used: birch branches, Salix ‘Pink Cushion’, Helleborus ‘Verboom Sifra’, Viburnum ‘Staalbes’, and bulbs of Narcissus ‘Bridal Crown’.
Sweeping
This dynamic wrist corsage features a base of Craspedia 'Paintbal Pop' and Limonium 'Max Diamond'. It is further 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
A layer of cellophane
is wrapped around a Smithers Oasis bio cake form to make it waterproof. An elastic band is placed around the form, between which the placed lavender stems are clamped. After enough lavender has been placed around the form, the whole can be secured with waterproof
tape and then nicely finished with ribbon and wire. Fresh flowers, including Helleborus, Clematis, Gloriosa, Phalaenopsis, Talinum ‘Long John’ and Echeveria succulents, are placed in the (wet) floral foam. Matching Christmas baubles and handmade stars of purple aluminum wire give the whole extra cachet.
Circled
Pine cones are attached to each other with black binding wire by making two wreaths around each other. This creates two rows of pine cones. An iron ring is incorporated in the inner row to create sturdiness, after which the whole is placed on a frame of black poken: the base for a hand-tied bouquet. The bouquet incorporates flowers in beautiful purple, brown, and salmon shades: Clematis (including C. Amazing Kibo), Helleborus, chrysanthemum, Scabiosa, Zantedeschia, lisianthus, Echeveria succulents, and Kalanchoe beharensis leaf.
Winter cloche
This plant arrangement consists of Gaultheria procumbens, pearl berry (Pernettya 'Rosea') and Helleborus orientalis. In this self-woven basket of willow branches, the protruding willow branches are woven together with bright pink paper rush to create a protective wicker cloche that offers the plants security and 'warmth'. The red pearl berries form a beautiful play of colors with the bright pink paper rush.
Winter happiness
An oval pot is filled with Oasis floral foam. The base of this floral arrangement consists of Amaryllis bulbs in various sizes and branches with larch and pine cones. Various flowers, candlesticks with handmade candles, pine cone varieties, cinnamon sticks, and dried lotus fruits are incorporated in between. Greenery: Helleborus, Nerine 'Sophie', prepared dandelion, burnet (Sanguisorba), Salix catkins, and wild Asparagus.
