Steelgrass
Working with steel grass is labor intensive but the result is ever really special and it dries very nicely - so after the wedding the dried object can be kept for a long time. The steel grass is processed using a braiding and weaving technique around a base of wire. At the ends, a beautiful wrap is made with copper-colored bouillon wire. Two beautiful Gloriosa flowers make it complete.
Powerful
A super flower to work with is the Craspedia, they also dry beautifully. However, it is important for the end result to find balls of the same size. They are each attached to a 1.6 mm wire and run nicely from thin to thick towards the Craspedia bulb. The stems are each secured to a wire-wrapped gold ring - each with the same distance between the wires. Not many additional flowers and materials were added to this powerful form: one beautiful Ceropegia sandersonii vine, Tillandsia dyeriana flowers, Gloriosa and several orchids.
Rosemelia
From Avalanche Peach roses, a smaller size Rosemelia has been put together. A nice size for the slimmer bride or brides ¬girls. The background is made of Paperwire from Smithers Oasis. The Rosemelia was glued to this with cold glue. To make it into a whole, tendrils of jasmine were grown from the frame around the Rosemelia. Some orchids and Gloriosa complete the whole.
Wire bowl
No matter where you are, always keep your eyes open for fun bases of objects that you can use in a different way. In this wire bowl is a complete Tillandsia 'Hermosa' stuck together with pieces of Talinum 'Long John'. It immediately forms a nice base to start. Between and to this are stuck all the other flowers: ranunculus, Scabiosa, Madiba chrysanthemums, Tillandsia dyeriana and Cambria orchids. A charming bridal bouquet that is very quick to make.
Rose Disc
A thick round MDF disc was taken as the base for this table arrangement. In it, holes were drilled for the approximately 60 glass tubes. After drilling, the holes were cleaned well and first sprayed with copper metallic paint. Between the tubes is a braid made of Talinum 'Long John' - these will dry beautifully. The stunners in this arrangement are the Avelanche Peach roses! These are in the tubes along with some beautiful ranunculus, nearly black Scabiosa and Anthurium. The base can be reused endlessly or even rented out.
Expressive
For a smaller budget, working on a bridy from Smithers Oasis can be a godsend. This bridy already has a very beautiful stem of its own. Basically, this bridal bouquet is tied around but the flowers are at very different heights because working with depth is very nice here. However, there are a number of expressive flowers incorporated that should not compete with each other and all have their own place so placement of materials is very important. The flowers incorporated are Avalanche Peach roses, Scabiosa, Clematis fluff, orchids, Anthurium, ranunculus, germinis, Talinum 'Long John', and Sanguisorba.
