How to Make Your Own Floral Arrangements

Article Category: Shopping

Author Name: chickie maxwell

Ordering floral arrangements can be expensive because of the fact that these are usually done by professionals. Flowers alone can cost a lot especially if you are getting really rare or in demand ones. Of course, these would also depend on where you get your flowers. If you are in need of only one or two floral arrangements for a special occasion you can consider making your own design. Sure, it takes a little skill and perseverance to get it right but once you do you might actually find it soothing to do.

Learning how to make your own floral arrangements does not require a lot of tools. Just a pair of pruning shears would suffice to trim those plants. Below is a list of several essential things you may need when making your own flower arrangement for that special occasion:

Pruning shears

These are used to cut off unwanted edges and to avoid uneven cuts. This can help make your design symmetrical and clean

Florist Foam

This is what florists use in order to create arrangements that stand without having to affix them together. Also, the foam is water absorbent so it keeps the plants hydrated and extends their lifespan.

Assortment of Flowers

Of course, your floral arrangements would not be complete without flowers. Make sure when you buy your flowers pick ones that are not dried. Get the ones that still have a fresh and bright appearance.

Vase, Basket or Pot

This will be used as holder for your design. This would usually depend on your taste and the design that you want to achieve.

Now that you have all of your items lined up and ready, just follow these steps and you ll have your floral arrangement done in no time at all.

Before you begin cutting up flower stalks and carving your florist s foam, you first need to decide on how you want your arrangement to look like in the end. This will that you have a good direction once you begin trimming and decorating.

Get your flowers and make sure to trim the edges of the stalk and get rid of any wilted or dried leaves. If you are planning to use different levels for your flowers, you trim others a little bit shorter (about an inch) than the others.

Once you have decided on the layout for your arrangement, you can now cut your foam into the design you want. Make sure that it fits exactly into your container (your vase or pot. Afterwards pour water on your florist s foam. Make sure to dampen the foam enough so that it can provide ample hydration to all the plant but not so much as to make the foam corrode.

Make sure that the entire bottom area of your container is lined with enough foam that will let the plants stand on it. Once your foam is ready, you can begin placing in your flowers.
