A New Take on Dutch Still Life
Ringenhart
For this ring cushion, a heart shape has been chosen, very symbolically. First, the basic shape is rounded with gypsophila on a BIO heart from Smithers Oasis. Then, beautiful, soft pink flowers are incorporated in between. Polianthes tuberosa, Scabiosa, and Clematis work together beautifully in this.
Mini copy
A mini copy of the bridal bouquet for the bridesmaid with the same materials and flowers but smaller. This way you create a cohesive whole. Part of the wire also forms the handle.
Spiral bouquet
The spiral shape of this bridal bouquet has a strong natural look. It is made of fresh Tillandsia usneoides moss that dries out very nicely over time. The Tillandsia moss is wrapped with copper-colored bullion wire around a core of 5 mm thick aluminum wire. With this strong base, a few special flowers and materials are sufficient: in this case, Osmunda fern curls, Cambria, and purple Gloriosa. A number of tendrils of the Ceropegia sandersonii complete the look.
Together as one
The base of this organic garland shape is made of crushed wire. It is first made as a long straight shape: a nice smooth transition from very thin to thick to thin is important. Then the 'snake' is bent into the correct shape. Loose gypsophila florets are glued into this shape. This base also dries beautifully – especially after using a lot of glue. As a finishing touch, a number of beautiful white Clematis Amazing Vienna flowers are incorporated.
