Natural with colour
Flowers and various leaf shapes are formed from natural-colored Smithers Oasis Rustic Wire, each drilled into a wooden base of the natural foundation and then secured around the glass vases with Smithers Oasis paper wire. This immediately appears decorative, and the bases can be arranged in many different ways – truly all colors suit the neutral base. Here, Gloriosa, carnations, Talinum ‘Long John’, Japanese Allium, Guzmania, Anthurium, and Syngonium leaves have been chosen for some tranquility.
Harmony
Red Cornus is woven and knotted in an open structure woven from 1.8mm wire in the shape of a round open sphere. Various glass test tubes are also woven between the Cornus branches. The most beautiful flowers from the Marginpar collection, supplemented with some spring flowers, are placed in the glass tubes. The flower stems are left as long as possible so that the flowers have a nice movement and form a unity with the frame. Gloriosa superba 'Simba Fifty Shades', Clematis 'Amazing Miami', Talinum 'Long John', Helleborus 'Mammoth Red', Tulipa 'Avignon', Nerine 'Elegance Amor' and Ranunculus.
Grown together
Salix branches bent into a U-shape are fixed with 1.8mm braided wire. A refined selection of flowers is placed at different heights in this frame and tied in a sheaf: Chaenomeles, Nerine, Gloriosa superba ‘Simba Fifty Shades’, Ranunculus ‘Butterfly’, Scabiosa ‘Bon Bon Scoop French Vanilla’, Talinum ‘Long John’, Tulipa jonquieres, Panicum ‘Heavy Metal’ and Limonium ‘China White’.
Family
Salix branches are bound in parallel with deco wire around a number of robust glass tubes. The branches are positioned a few centimeters above the bottom so that they appear to float. To maintain this effect, the processed flower stems do not extend below the Salix branches. Flowers used: Polianthes ‘Epic Elsa’, P. ‘Epic Elle’, P. ‘Epic Eva’, Helleborus ‘Mammoth Red’, Clematis ‘Amazing London’, Talinum ‘Long John’, Nerine ‘Sofie’, Tulipa jonquieres, Chaenomeles.
The light and elegant arrangement works well as a complete presentation, but the various components can also be sold separately.
Butterfly cloud
The frame for this 'butterfly' bouquet is made of 1.6 mm wire that is transparently coated with fine red Cornus branches. The resulting open bowl shape is used to bind the completely defoliated Clematis 'Amazing Geneva' together with Talinum 'Long John' like a sheaf of wheat. By removing the green leaves, the Clematis flowers 'dance' above the Cornus bowl, as it were, with the Talinum providing a subtle connection between the materials – the delicate Clematis and the robust Cornus.
Rose disc
A thick, round MDF disc was used as the base for this table arrangement. Holes were drilled into this for the approximately 60 glass tubes. After drilling, clean the holes thoroughly and first spray with copper metallic paint. A braid of Talinum ‘Long John’ is made between the tubes – these will dry beautifully. The showstoppers in this arrangement are the Avelanche Peach roses! These are in the tubes together with a number of beautiful ranunculus, almost black Scabiosa and Anthurium. The base can be reused endlessly or even rented out.
