Luxury Xmas
The skirt of a metal wire weave conveys the ultimate Christmas feeling through the luxurious but also pure materials. The base is of Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Nana Gracilis' and Pinus densiflora 'Alice Verkade'. Cucumis fruits, and the foliage of Alocasia finish it off. "Let the champagne bottle pop!
Copper-colored wreath
For year-end festivities, warm copper colors and natural tones are an ideal color combination. The base of this wreath is an Oasis ring (Ø 42cm). This wreath incorporates various drying materials such as pampas grass (Cortaderia selloana), bleached Ruscus, Grevillia 'Gold' leaf, dried Helichrysum and Pinus pine cones. The bronze-colored Cymbidium provides the icing on the cake.
Nature de luxe
The base of this creation is an Oasis ball raised with Abies procera (nobilis) branches. A light structure of branches of an apple tree is placed on the ball. Tillandsia xerographica along with the beautiful leaves of Alocasia 'Polly' play a leading role in the composition.
The structure is decorated of baubles, hanging crystal
pendants and silver ornaments
and some white Phalaenopsis and Dendrobium orchids. The silver glow of the materials used combines perfectly with the vase color and gives a luxurious look.
Christmas tradition
Underlying this pure arrangement are three very simple materials: winding wire, pine needles and Ilex berries. On a metal rod, ten bobbins of winding wire were kneaded into a beautiful shape. With the broad side down, the shape was placed on a bucket. One by one, Pinus pine needles were dipped in wood glue and then inserted into the structure - a labor-intensive job. Once finished, the form was inverted and mounted in a vase; a wealth of Ilex crenata berries was inserted in the center.
Elegance
An Oasis wreath (Ø 42cm) is completely covered with Icelandic moss (Cretaria islandica). Around it are Tillandsia xerographica whose leaves are pinned to the wreath with pins. The curly Tillandsia leaves provide movement while the small baubles give the wreath an extra festive touch. Candles in candle holders are pinned into the wreath.
Scarlet Christmas
For this table decoration, different sized spheres were made from natural materials. For this purpose, kraft paper, peat, straw and clay were mixed. A layer of kerosene makes them waterproof. Red Nerine 'Lydia', rose hips (Rosa corallo), Pinus branches and kiwi tendrils harmoniously connect the bulbs. The bulbs are presented on narrow shelves wrapped with kraft paper in the same color as the bulbs. Pine cones, Malus apples and red baubles bring an additional decorative element.
