Festive wreath bouquet
A special ceramic vase with a floral collar is the inspiration for this wreath bouquet. The base of the wreath is a structure of Ammi branches (field screen) sprayed in rose gold color. These special floral screens are complemented by fresh green Cedrus branches. Carnations and Phalaenopsis flowers are incorporated into the structure in water tubes. Shades of cream, salmon and pink play into the shape and color of the vase and the Ammi branches.
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.
Xmas twist
Within the gold-colored ring - formerly a kind of tray
with a mirror - a silver bush (Calocephalus) cut into pieces was first placed. Through this, all the materials were inserted. The whole thing was placed on a vase so that the cut flowers were all in water: Clematis (including C. Amazing Kibo), Chrysanthemum, Scabiosa, Zantedeschia, Rudbeckia and Phalaenopsis. Finally, Christmas baubles and Echeveria
succulents were glued on top.
Twins
This set on two beautiful handmade bowls is stitched in bio-stitch foam from Smithers Oasis. The bowls are also the starting point for the shape - continuing the shape of the base into floral work is always especially powerful. All the flowers and berries are thoroughly cleaned. The leafless stems really participate decoratively in this story. The flower heads and berries are tucked into a kind of screen. There are many chrysanthemums incorporated as well as Hypericum berries: true autumn materials. Also discover the processed Astrantia, Scabiosa, Guzmania, Phalaenopsis and Dianthus.
Stewed pears
The stewing pears that were blown out of the tree after a big storm were given new life. The colors in the pears are beautiful and together with the pretty floral tones make a lovely whole. The base is a wooden MDF board with small water tubes drilled into it. The board was pimped up with metallic spray paint from Smithers Oasis. Satin cord was glued around the edge of the disk for an added accent. This object can be reused many times. The flowers used are Cambria orchids, lisianthus, chrysanthemums, dill, Scabiosa and Phalaenopsis.
Surprise Bouquet
The base of this surprise bouquet is a bowl made of salmon-colored aluminum wire (2 mm) using the chicken wire technique. The flowers, in bordeaux, deep red and lighter shades, are incorporated into the bowl shape of the frame along the sides, the stems also holding up the frame. Some of the flowers have special shapes such as Guzmania, Phalaenopsis, Chrysanthemum, Gloriosa and Celosia. In between and along the outside are incorporated Sanguisorba, Talinum, Scabiosa, Clematis Amazing Kibo, lisianthus, Zantedeschia and grasses.
