Creating and Designing Flower Arrangements.

Romantic dates, lively parties, and even our homes aren't complete without stunning blooms. A bouquet of fresh flowers adds the ideal touch of nature's charm and beauty.

We've gathered info about creating floral arrangements from florists all across the country. Here, we give out top tips you need to know!

• Flowers, Greens, and Plants.

Every arrangement is unique! But no matter the style and size of your bouquet, there are essential steps each florist should do:.

• Pick and prep all your flowers.

Now start with picking the flowers you want to use. Give them fresh cuts at a 45 ° angle. With this, you can take off excess leaves to stop bacteria growth.

Keep in mind what blooms are in season. Perk up your design by mixing and matching these flowers!

• Choose your vase and foliage for the base.

Keep your bouquet flowing by placing green foliage at the base. Put them in various directions for a natural look. This will help complement the flowers of your choosing!

• Add smaller or accent flowers.

Begin your design by putting accent flowers into your bouquet in groups of three. Be sure to turn your vase as you work. This will help you create a pleasing and eye-catching look.

• Insert large blooms in the gaps.

Some florists put in their main flowers before anything else. This is because they want a reference point for the accents and the greens.

But we found that saving them for last is more effective. We recommend you insert bigger blooms in the spaces in your arrangement. This brings more life to your design!
