Under the stars
Coarse Pinus branches are inserted horizontally with the lines of the Oasis Bioline Star into
the shape. This finishes the sides nicely and gives the star that
typical Christmas look. To add movement to the arrangement, the flowers
of a Tillandsia plant and panicles of Miscanthus 'White Cloud' are also processed in this way.
incorporated. Hypericum 'Magical Triumph,' 'Tomato Flair' and Jatropha 'Firecracker'
are, in order to further accentuate the star shape, staked short in the oasis.
The beautiful Helleborus 'Moondance' at the center softens the arrangement.
Mood lights
In a store, you can't always make the bases yourself. These tea light holders already form
a nice frame. To give them a slightly different look, a number of gold-colored
aluminum wires, some wrapped with gold bouillon wire. This is decorative but
also technically gives the possibility of attaching tubes and baubles to the base. Some
beautiful bendable mini south wind lilies and Tillandsia leaves "grow" nicely through the wires.
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.
