Winter garden
In an iconic aluminum spout vase, the
mossed Larix branches a base arranged in the
angled openings of the spouts. Between them
various flower varieties in different white
nuances; Polianthes 'Elsa', Agapanthus
'Glacier', Clematis 'Amazing Seville' and
Clematis 'Amazing Kibo' fluff. The black
grass, Pennisetum 'Black Fox,' connects the
black vase with the Larix branches and flowers.
Enclosed
The base of this bouquet is made of half a Styrofoam ball from which a ring is
cut. Prepared leaves were glued onto the Styrofoam with hot glue. Around this
is wrapped a layer of bouillon thread. This is decorative but also ensures that
the leaf stays nicely within the shape throughout. The Avalanche Peach rose colors beautifully
with the leaves and with the beautiful brown Tillandsia flowers. For a surprising effect
these are placed asymmetrically between the roses.
Rose Bowl
Working with candle wax gives a beautiful "frozen" winter atmosphere. Moreover
it works quickly and consumers actually always like it. The base of
this rose bowl is half a Styrofoam ball containing organic floral foam from
Smithers Oasis. Into this are tightly inserted the Avalanche roses. To break the tight
two beautiful snowberry branches are placed around the stems with
some silver bouillon wire wrapped around the stems as small details.
Strong together
A series of several sizes sells better in the flower store than a single one. People
like to have a choice in terms of size and budget. These rings already have a nice base on which
them, and are quick to make up.
The rings are tightly wrapped with gold bouillon wire - which here is both decorative and
technical because all the processed materials are attached to this. All the dried and prepared
materials are long lasting except for the white mini Phalaenopsis.
Cylinder
The base for this cylindrical table piece is a Bio cake pan from
Smithers Oasis. Around this are placed a number of rubber bands. Between
the rubber bands and the floral foam, sticks can be clamped. These
sticks are, in the right quantity, cut to the same length at the same time.
- A quick and easy technique with which to beautifully, and if necessary
branches or sticks can be used well in advance. For the decoration
beautiful white Avalanche roses are easily incorporated.
Pampas grass jacket
The base of this natural vase is
a number of bouquet holders Paperweb
which have been worked into a vase shape with
centrally placed an Oasis Lady.
The shape was covered with plastic wrap,
then plastered with pampas grass and
attached to an iron stand that was
previously plastered with banana leaf.
Inside the floral foam are white
Cymbidium orchids and carnations
into the floral foam - the flowers are
cherished, as it were, by the grass.
The whole thing is finished with cotton fluff
(Gossypium), white Limonium
and Acacia sprigs - which provides a
playful counter movement.
