The standing flower arrangements
were lining along the aisle seen from the balcony. Looks amazing ya!! (image

Wondering how to make a standing
flower arrangement like the one above? Actually it’s quite easy but you have to
do it neatly and thoroughly. This time we are going to implement the ‘American
Style’ by using grouping technique (though not totally) which means that the
flowers were placed in group, but not for the foliage. The leaves were still
spreading (European characteristic). Since the theme was ‘all white’, only a
little bit green then the flowers we chose were mostly white such as Casablanca, roses of
Avalance’, chrysant-salju, shamrock, white spray carnation, white pom-pom or
Billy button flower, baby’s breath and the foliage was philodendron (in medium
and small size), ruscus and leather leaf. So, wanna try???
This is how to make a standing
flower arrangement step by step:
1.
Prepare the iron flower stand, then put the wet
floral foam (cut into half) on it. After that strengthen it by using wire or
plastic rope.
2.
Decide where you’ll put the tulle white ribbon.
Use this as the front side of the flower arrangement, where you put the focus
of the flower.
3.
Then ready to arrange the flowers now. First
place 3 stems of philodendron (size M) in the form of triangle. Then place the
leather leaf between them so that it’ll look circle now. After that take 5
stems of small sized philo leaf then arrange them above around the top.
4.
Take 9 stems of chrysant – salju, cut into 20 –
25 cm length each. Then place them by using grouping technique in 3 points so
as to form a triangle. Each group contains of 3 stems.
Take 12 stems
of roses. Do the same steps just like number 4, but put the other 3 stems of
roses at the top.
1. Up to this stage, this is what it looks from the
above. The shape should be round, otherwise there must be wrong with the way
you cut. You might not cut the stems in the same length or not place the flower
into the same depth.
2. Then take 9 stems of shamrock, white poms and
spray carnation. Set them all to fill the empty spaces so that it looks full
and dense. Do this by using grouping technique.
3. If there is still empty space, fill it with
ruscus leaf, cut the leaves a bit shorter than the flowers. Finally place the Casablanca at the front,
then spread the baby’s breath around the flower arrangement.
4.
Finish. This is how it looks when it was put at
the aisle.
Ok guys, have a nice try!!!
