In this blog post, we’ll offer step-by-step instructions for creating various flower arrangements at home, including tips on selecting flowers, arranging, and maintaining fresh flowers for longer. So, grab your favourite vase and let’s get started!
When it comes to selecting flowers for your arrangement, there are a few things to consider. Firstly, consider the colour scheme of the room you’ll be placing the arrangement in. If you’re looking to add a pop of colour, choose bright hues such as yellows and pinks. If you prefer more muted tones, opt for white and cream blooms.Secondly, consider the size of the space you’ll be displaying your arrangement in. For smaller spaces, choose smaller blooms such as daisies or baby’s breath, whereas larger spaces can accommodate larger blooms such as sunflowers or roses.
Once you’ve selected your flowers, it’s time to start arranging! Begin by trimming the stems at an angle to ensure maximum water absorption. Arrange the flowers in your vase, starting with the largest blooms in the centre and working towards the outer edges with smaller blooms. This will help to create a balanced and visually appealing arrangement. Be sure to fill any gaps with foliage, such as eucalyptus or ferns, to add texture and depth.
To ensure that your flowers stay fresher for longer, be sure to change the water every few days and re-trim the stems at an angle each time. You can also add a teaspoon of sugar to the water to help feed the flowers. Display your arrangement in a cool, well-lit area away from direct sunlight and heat sources, such as radiators or fireplaces.
If you’re looking to create a more elaborate and eye-catching arrangement, try incorporating different heights and textures into your design. Use a variety of vases, or even glasses or jars, to create a multi-tiered effect. Fill each vessel with a unique arrangement of flowers and foliage, and stack them on top of one another for a stunning and Instagram-worthy display.
Creating elegant flower arrangements at home doesn’t have to be a daunting task. With a little bit of creativity and some helpful tips, you can transform any space into a stunning and chic oasis.
