Between layers
A good number of tonkin sticks were wrapped with the drill with
rope and secured at both ends with bindwire. With these wrapped
sticks, an airy base was made for this bouquet consisting of a
large and a small base. These are attached one above the other. Between these
all the flowers sheaf bound - the flowers are between the two
layers. Flowers used: orange picked chrysanthemums, Germini in orange and
salmon tones, Avalanche Peach rose, red Helleborus and Hydrangea,
Euphorbia 'Autumn Leaves' and Amaryllis 'Maestro'.
Simplicity
On a zinc pot in "oil" colors is a
stack made of oasis cake molds -
up to two-thirds of the pot size. Around the
oasis is a thin layer of cling film
applied to hold the water.
Through all the layers, three tonkin sticks were
inserted to give the whole
give it strength. The flower stems are also
easily through the layer of plastic.
A number of threaded pines -
apples are placed in a nice
into the base. Then the
green materials are inserted briefly until the
entire column is filled: pink spray chrysanthemum,
Hydrangea 'Revolution' and various
varieties of Cape greenery.
Two Nobilis branches are stripped until
only the tips are still filled with green
are. These were secured with wrapping wire at two
points secured to the side of the
column.
Flower spiral
The base is a cat's nest on a metal base. For this nest structure formed from Salix branches, all the branches were tied piece by piece on the base and then clamped together. The nest structure is multi-use - a spiral of soft flowers was chosen to perfectly match the soft catkins.
A mix of flowers is tucked onto an Oasis garland: salmon-colored cluster ¬roses, Rosa 'Bombastic', soft pink Hydrangea and Eustoma 'Wed Pink', fuchsia-colored Clematis 'Amazing Kyiv' boost the color scheme. A few more leaves of Begonia maculata were staked as an accent.
Kurisumasu keki
Prior to the holiday season, pastry stores all over Japan display their finest creations. As such, the Christmas cake, kurisumasu keki, is one of
the highlights of Japanese Christmas, a time full of romance and lights. For this floral Japanese Christmas cake with two layers, the base is made of Kalanchoe leaf and moss. Added to this are sprigs of Callicarpa, Rosa 'Country Blues', Hydrangea, Pinus strobus and rose-red Zantedeschia. Tufts of silver bush (Calocephalus) and champagne-colored baubles form festive accents.
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.
Viva violet
An Oasis Ideal bulb was placed on a bamboo stick for reinforcement and placed in a black vase. On this are staked all the materials; Hydrangea, Asteraceae, Nicandra physalodes, Viburnum, Vitis, Nigella, Setaria italica, blackberry and Wisteria (2nd bloom in autumn).
