Christmas Wreaths
As the base for the Christmas wreaths, Styrofoam wreaths were
were used. Holes were first drilled
into which plastic tubes were inserted. Then
melted candle wax was applied. The materials
were glued or placed on silver aluminum wire
put which were inserted through the candle wax into the Styrofoam
were inserted. Inside the tubes are roses,
orchids, Tillandsia, snowberries and
Alocasia foliage placed inside.
Natural wreaths
A styrofoam ring was used for the base of each of these wreaths
used on which leaves prepared with hot glue were
glued. Around the leaf a layer of broth
wire - it also ensures that the leaf stays nicely
stays nicely within the shape. All materials are glued with hot
glue including some Christmas balls upside down
so they can also serve as water carriers for Gloriosa
and some small Phalaenopsis and Nerine flowers.
Golden drops
These golden drops can serve
as alternative Christmas trees but as
objects also very beautiful. The beautiful bases
are made of 5 mm thick gold colored
aluminum wire wrapped with gold-colored
bouillon wire and can be recreated many times
be made up. Gold-colored
Ginkgo leaves and baubles were used.
Gloriosa and
Bromelia flowers incorporated.
Christmas tree alternative
A simple wood disc has a wire -
end as the central point, around this is a
wad of silver aluminum wire processed
using the crush technique - several meters of
kneading wire into the right shape. In this
alternative miniature Christmas tree, countless
decorative materials: small
baubles, pine cones, Tillandsia leaf and Alocasia leaves.
Pronounced winters
That even in winter you do not have to avoid strong colors
prove this corn sheaf hand-tied bouquet. Beautiful
Scabiosa from the Scoop series forms together with Gloriosa superba a
warm base and contrasts beautifully with the yellow accent of Limonium
'Max Diamond'. The purple Clematis also provides a nice color accent.
The warm appearance of the gold-colored pot makes the whole
complete.
Quiet
An Oasis Venezia Bowl is placed in a styrofoam mold and stuck on the
outside plastered with lichen. For this, Oasis cold glue was used because
hot glue often "eats away" the styrofoam. In the Venezia bowl a wig
of Calocephalus green. Between this beautiful base is Polianthes
'Elsa,' Astrantia and the white Agapanthus 'Glacier. Scutellaria
'Tinkerbell' and pretty Clematis fluff add a lovely touch.
