Happiness comes from within
A frame has been made from a few pieces of bark through which the flowers, fuchsia-colored Gerbera, have been inserted. The easy-to-make frame can be rearranged time and again. Thanks to the choice of flowers, you can give the frame bouquet a completely different look time and again with the same base.
Celebrate life!
A summer garden party for a golden wedding anniversary. Gypsophila is very versatile and a welcome flower in bridal bouquets and arrangements. As a base, gypsophila and the gold-sprayed hydrangea are inserted very compactly into the floral foam. The long stems of the white carnations and gold-sprayed Anthurium are playfully inserted, giving the whole a modern look.
Winter Challenge
To move from the colorful fall to winter is a different mindset for many people. Not that the colors completely disappear from the landscape, but it's all a bit more subtle and monochromatic. For florists, especially those who want to work more sustainably, that can be a challenge. Getting into the shell of nature, the bare branches with larch or pine cones, the evergreen greenery, mosses and dried tendrils - it takes some adjusting.
Bowl Bouquet
An impressive autumn bouquet with a brown frame, handmade vase, and flowers in mostly orange hues. The base is made using the chicken wire technique with 1.6mm florist wire. Young shoots of fruit trees, pruning waste from the garden and therefore free, are woven through this. Together with the wire, these form a kind of basket. Woody mossy branches that blew out of the trees in the garden after a heavy storm are also incorporated into the basket. This old dead wood is not only decorative but also technical: they lend themselves well to incorporating the Physalis seed pods between them. The seed pods are individually wired and joined together to form branches. Beautiful striking flowers are placed between all the branches: Celosia, Gloriosa, Zantedeschia, Guzmania, germinis, chrysanthemums, and beautiful accompanying materials such as Talinum, Hypericum, and Sanguisorba.
Twins
This set on two beautiful handmade bowls is arranged in bio-foam from Smithers Oasis. The bowls are also the starting point for the shape – continuing the shape of the surface in the floral work is always particularly powerful. All flowers and berries have been thoroughly cleaned. The leafless stems really participate decoratively in this story. The flower heads and berries are inserted in a kind of screen. Many chrysanthemums and also Hypericum berries are used: real autumn materials. Also discover the processed Astrantia, Scabiosa, Guzmania, Phalaenopsis and Dianthus.
Better together
A wonderful set of beautiful objects of which the base can easily be reused. The base is self-made from two decorative garden stakes in flower form – they were flat when purchased. The two stakes are drilled into the wooden blocks and unfolded to make them spatial. To create even more possibilities, thick aluminum wire is incorporated through and around it – so that tubes can easily be attached to it and flowers woven through it. Zantedeschia is perfect for weaving through the frame, with the stems also participating beautifully. Talinum ‘Long John’ is processed dry here – it always dries beautifully. Furthermore, Gloriosa, some orchids, and Scabiosa are beautifully in place in these autumn objects.
