Floating Autumn
The base of this arrangement consists of a wooden plank to which five lampshades are attached. The wooden legs make it appear as if the plank is “floating.” The lampshades were filled with coiled grasses. A bird has even built its nest here—which remained among the lampshades after the eggs hatched. The inverted lampshades are filled with Oasis and arranged with, among other things: Dahlia ‘Hapet Harmony,’ Epidendrum, Phalaenopsis, Tillandsia, poppy seed pods, Sempervivum, wild marjoram, and Lagurus ovatus (hare’s tail).
A Radiant Fall
The base of this radiant fall arrangement is a plastic Christmas ornament. A hole was drilled into it, and legs were attached to the ornament. This immediately creates a watertight base. The ornament is covered with various types and colors of glass beads. Finally, the arrangement was finished with flowers whose colors complement the vase, such as Phalaenopsis ‘Altena’, Allium senescens, Phlox ‘Butterfly’, and Passiflora.
Mushrooms
These beautiful tree stumps are wrapped in floral wire and feature a candle holder and a candle. The arrangement is finished with preserved mushrooms. A small dish filled with Oasis has been placed in the center. Materials used include Dahlia ‘Hapet Harmony,’ Orlaya ‘White Finch,’ and Phalaenopsis.
On a standard—
Joyce combines five dried Heliconia into one large arrangement. She arranged beautiful flowers in between them. “It could easily be a cool bridal bouquet, but I hung this one on a stand.” Materials used include: Heliconia ‘She Kong,’ Phalaenopsis ‘Exclusivo Pikachu,’ Phalaenopsis ‘Crème,’ Tillandsia, clematis fluff, Sarracenia, and Physalis skeleton.
Chic headband
In addition to a bridal bouquet, the bride can also wear a floral tiara. This tiara was created using a 3D printer. All fresh flowers are glued directly to the base using Smithers Oasis cold glue. The tiara features various small and delicate materials. It incorporates Talinum ‘Long John’, Madiba chrysanthemums, buds from the Cambria orchid, Hypericum, Phalaenopsis, and dried Mikado buds.
Teardrop shape
This bridal bouquet is shaped like a teardrop. The base is 3D-printed and consists of fern-shaped ribbons. The teardrop shape incorporates leaves from Tillandsia ‘Xerographica’ and individual leaves from freeze-dried roses. You can create this base several days before the wedding. Then, on the day itself, all you need to do is attach the fresh materials. Fresh materials used here include: Phalaenopsis ‘Golden River’, Hypericum, ranunculus, and flowers from the Ludisia orchid.
