For my love
You don't always have to express your love with a large bouquet – why not with a beautiful wreath? A strip of felt is glued around a Bio wreath from Smithers Oasis for finishing. Incidentally, the Bio floral foam can simply remain visible – not completely filled saves a lot of time and material costs. The processed flowers are: Talinum ‘Long John’, carnations, Clematis fluff, Cambria orchid, Scabiosa flowers and seed pods, Ludisia orchid, Syngonium leaf, Japanese Allium and jasmine vines. For the ultimate feeling of love, a number of beautiful wooden hearts have been incorporated in beautifully matching colors.
Radiant
A picture for Mother's Day! The base of this frame bouquet is made of wire with a wreath made of wooden coffee stirrers attached to it with Smithers Oasis paper wire. The color is neutral and very natural, giving you all the possibilities in terms of flower colors. A beautiful mix of Japanese Allium, chrysanthemums, Phalaenopsis, Clematis flowers and fluff, Scabiosa seed pods, and jasmine vines has been chosen.
Cuddly
A polystyrene heart with a felt layer is painted to tone down the bright color somewhat. The pipe cleaners – also soft and cuddly – are placed on a wire frame using a chicken wire technique and formed around the heart.
The various beautiful carnations fit well in terms of color and structure in this bouquet and are also very easy to incorporate between and under the pipe cleaners. Furthermore, Scabiosa flowers and seed pods are incorporated, as well as the pink bracts of Vriesea – beautiful varieties to incorporate in compact bouquets. The two Phalaenopsis flowers are in tubes; they match perfectly in color and complete the arrangement beautifully.
Subdued
For this Mother's Day bouquet in beautiful shades of brown, 5mm aluminum wires are wrapped with metallic wool, interspersed with a brown fabric heart. A beautiful symbolism: the heart is pierced with a single thread, and the remaining threads 'grow' around it, as do the flowers that weave through the threads. Sanguisorba, Talinum 'Long John', Cambria orchid, Phalaenopsis, Gloriosa, Japanese Allium, Scabiosa, beautiful brown carnations, and fragrant Polianthes tuberosa are incorporated here.
Natural with colour
Flowers and various leaf shapes are formed from natural-colored Smithers Oasis Rustic Wire, each drilled into a wooden base of the natural foundation and then secured around the glass vases with Smithers Oasis paper wire. This immediately appears decorative, and the bases can be arranged in many different ways – truly all colors suit the neutral base. Here, Gloriosa, carnations, Talinum ‘Long John’, Japanese Allium, Guzmania, Anthurium, and Syngonium leaves have been chosen for some tranquility.
Nice and luxurious
Cute giveaway vases sell well! These luxury arrangements are based on a (reusable) wooden flower. A number of aluminum wires are placed between the flower petals, which not only have a decorative function but also a technical one: they keep all the flowers in the place where you want them. The processed flowers are Ornithogalum, Nerine, snowberry and Phalaenopsis.
