Character Heart

A durable BIO Oasis heart shape is divided into two contrasting halves, giving it a striking and modern look. One side is made up with robust driftwood, creating a natural look. The other heart half is richly filled with Rosa 'La Paloma'. Delicate orchids break the clean lines and create a playful effect. A powerful and elegant arrangement, suitable for a variety of occasions.

Shell Wreath

A BIO wreath from Oasis forms the sustainable base. On this is a straw wreath completely covered with shells, carefully stacked for a playful and natural effect. Shells (on sticks) are also incorporated between the flowers. The addition of rose-red Rosa 'Star Trek', Achillea, Eustoma, Gerbera and Freesia makes this arrangement a harmonious whole. 

Contemporary botanical

This striking object is constructed on a sturdy hardwood base, providing a stable and stylish base. On top, iron pins, tightly wrapped with gold-colored winding wire, form a powerful interplay of lines with a luxurious feel. Attached to the wrapping wire are dried Buddha nuts, into which small flowering cacti are glued. A modern and botanical object that completely comes into its own in a contemporary interior. 

Sunny summer

About fifteen leaves were formed from pokes. These were then wrapped with Oasis paper wire. From the loose leaves, a frame was formed by attaching them together with tonkin canes. This creates a playful, yet sturdy base for the bouquet. The flowers exude summer. The delicate, blue-purple hues of the Delphinium combine beautifully with the yellow spherical Craspedia flowers. The bright green snowball lifts the whole in color beautifully. Together they create a cheerful and vibrant display that is perfect for the bright, sunny days of summer. 

'Beauty is in the moment'

Florist and master florist Ilona Oostenveld runs her studio with heart and soul. 'After years of having a store, I recently chose a new path: no more opening hours, but a studio where I only work on order. I wanted more freedom and creativity in my work. In a store you are often tied to the clock. Now I work by appointment, I can fully focus on the wishes of my customers and I have more time for freelance work.'

'I get my inspiration from everyday life, a walk in the woods or beautiful art I come across, these are things that excite me. Nature gives me endless ideas, especially in the summer. For me, that is the most beautiful season: everything is blooming, alive, vibrant. I like to work with seasonal flowers - Delphinium and peony are the real summer flowers for me.'

Ilona's floral work is an ode to color, seasons and the small happiness of every day. 'In a world that is often rushed, I want to show that beauty is in the moment - if you have an eye for it. I love the colors and trend of today: organic shapes and natural tones, through this we draw nature inside even more!'

Summer power

We have already had a taste of it this spring: summer. And what is striking about those first beautiful summer days is the power it brings. Not only in nature, which literally explodes, but also in people. Everyone seems more cheerful, lively and full of energy.
