High contrast
Faded grasses from the garden are tied into small bundles with fine bullion wire – for this arrangement, some 350 bundles have been inserted into a base of Oasis Sec floral foam. Centrally in this grass object, or table piece for Easter, glass tubes have been inserted into the floral foam and filled with spring flowers: Craspedia, French tulips, mimosa ‘Mirandol’, small-flowered daffodils and Ranunculus ‘Butterfly’.
A touch of sun
The mix of light-colored grasses and flowers in all shades of yellow, together with a soft and airy structure, ensures that this bouquet radiates energy and optimism. The base is a metal wreath on which fine grasses such as Stipa pennata and yellow hare tails (Lagurus) are bound. In the heart, a sheaf-bound bouquet with soft yellow Ranunculus, warm yellow spray roses, cream-green Helleborus, green-yellow Fritillaria, and sturdy yellow Craspedia.
Floral spiral
The base is a catkin nest on a metal base. For this nest structure formed of Salix branches, all branches are individually tied to the base and then clamped together. The nest structure can be used multiple times - a spiral of soft flowers has been chosen that perfectly matches the soft catkins.
A mix of flowers is inserted on an Oasis garland: salmon-colored spray roses, Rosa 'Bombastic', soft pink Hydrangea and Eustoma 'Wed Pink', fuchsia-colored Clematis 'Amazing Kyiv' give the color scheme a boost. A number of Begonia maculata leaves have been added as an accent.
Soft floral heart
Central is the soft, sweet character of willow catkins (Salix). The centerpiece of the bouquet is a polystyrene sphere that is completely covered with catkins. Three skewers are inserted into the edge of the polystyrene and form the handle. Several Salix branches are attached to a metal ring with binding wire to form an airy wreath. The wreath is attached to the sphere. The flowers are inserted between the willow branches – with their soft, warm colors they emphasize the softness of the heart of the bouquet. Flowers used: Tulipa, Ranunculus, Dianthus.
Nesting place
In early spring, life returns: birds sing, flower bulbs emerge, buds burst forth. This egg-shaped nest is the embodiment of a cozy place where small living creatures can nest or take shelter. The base is a balloon to which Compactuna has been applied. Subsequently, the balloon is wrapped in mustard yellow rope, leaving an opening. After thorough drying, the rope hardens, and the nest can be placed on a gold-colored metal pin with a base. The spring flowers are processed in Oasis Bio floral foam. Flowers used: Hyacinthus, Muscari, Rosa, Dianthus, Limonium, Clematis, and Mentha.
Wonder
It is fascinating how an egg breaks open and new life emerges from it. This creation symbolizes that wonder. The base is a polystyrene hemisphere on which a (duck) egg is first placed centrally. Quail eggs are then glued around this egg. The polystyrene serves as a mold and is removed after gluing. A piece of Oasis Bio floral foam is placed on a dish – the hemisphere with quail eggs is placed on top of this. A variety of spring flowers are then inserted into the floral foam. Flowers used: Clematis, Muscari, Scabiosa, Delphinium, Achillea and Limonium.
