Play of lines
A rectangular wooden dish is filled with clay and covered with dried Tillandsia, which is secured with staples. Willow catkins (Salix) are inserted into the clay, then folded and also secured with the tip in the clay. The resulting tight shape has a beautiful interplay of lines; attention to the design is very important. Duck eggs are glued onto the construction with hot glue, alternating with small blue quail eggs. The duck eggs also act as water carriers, in which blue Muscari flowers are arranged.
Trendy spring
The spring trends Peach Perfect and Fluor Future are the foundation for this tightly bound bouquet with various flowers: spray rose Rosa ‘Azore’ and Rosa ‘Kahala’, small Craspedia spheres, Phalaenopsis flowers, Dianthus ‘Caramel’, and Eustoma ‘Alissa Light Apricot’. The fluorescent plastic circles are tied to aluminum wrapping wire, placed around the bouquet, and provide a fun, trendy 'disco' accent.
More with less
The inspiration for this bouquet is the theme of sustainability – how to create a lot of impact with few flowers. The base is a structure of fine branches: Salix and Chaenomeles japonica. Vertical branches are attached to two circles of fine Salix branches. When the branches are firmly interlocked and the structure remains stable, the fine flowers can be added: Craspedia, Gloriosa, French tulips, Sandersonia and leaves of Begonia maculata leaves. Then, the whole is placed in a flat gold-colored bowl with water.
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.
