Remember - did it happen that you looked at flower arrangements from fresh flowers and immediately realized that they were created by an experienced arranger? You may have been overwhelmed by the size or the presence of exotic flowers in the arrangement. Maybe you were attracted unusual shape plants or elegant packaging. However, in interesting compositions of flowers that cause instant admiration, there is something else - this is Harmony.

To achieve harmony, it is not necessary to buy some exotic plants. Beautiful flower arrangements for the interior can be created using the most common violets, balsams and other familiar “windowsill friends”. Before you make a flower arrangement - look around you, you are surrounded by a wide variety of objects that can become part of a flower arrangement.

Harmony is a design term used to describe an object in which separate parts merge to create an attractive whole. To achieve harmony, all or almost all of the main features must be present. good design- variety of textures, proportionality of components, sense of movement and correct use of color. All these design requirements relate to the beauty of the arrangement of fresh flowers in a container. However, in our case, we must also take into account the background, since one of the main goals of arranging is to improve general decor room, and not just its decoration. In this section, you will find information about all these techniques of good flower design, learn how to arrange arrangements from indoor flowers, and also learn the rules for arranging plants.

There are additional design requirements. You need to use a style that suits your skill, creative temperament, display space, etc.

One more fundamental question remains - do you have to slavishly follow all these rules of form, color, proportion, etc. to be a good flower arranger? After all, most of these principles and elements are common to all forms of artistic creation, but Picasso and Rembrandt couldn't follow the same rules!

In fact, Picasso learned the rules and styles of classical painting and he applied them early in his career. His own styles and methods developed later. Apply this principle to your approach to the art of flower arranging - learn and practice the classic rules of good floral design, and then break them if you're really a beginner Picasso. But do so with the knowledge that you are breaking traditional rules and principles that you know well, and not just doing so out of ignorance.

Plant arrangement based on color

Color is one of the first things you notice when looking at a composition, and so some understanding of color is helpful. This does not mean that you have to follow a lot of rules. Some of the so-called rules are questionable, and too much has already been written about what goes with what and how to avoid color clashes - "never put pink next to dark raspberry" and so on. Color is a matter of personal taste.

The basis of color theory is the Color Wheel. It consists of numerous pure colors, from which light and dark shades are obtained. There are three main ways to arrange these colors together so that the viewer feels they match.

The boldest way is to use contrasting colors that are opposite each other through the center of the circle, the calmest way is to use similar colors that are next to each other, and the most sophisticated way is to use shades of the same color.

If you are arranging flowers for the home and not for a flower show, then you can ignore the color wheel and its associated charts if you like. In this case, it is helpful to have a clear understanding of the properties of warm and cool colors in order to be sure that the chosen colors match the room, lighting, season, container, and arrangement design.

Choice of colors for flower arranging

What are the features of the room? Look at the color of the walls, furniture, etc. - Try to use one of the primary colors in the plant material you choose. The background is important! A dark tone composition will stand out strongly against the background. light wall, but will be lost against the background of dark oak panels or burgundy curtains. On the other hand, the impression of the composition in light or in warm colors intensifies on a dark background.

How is the room lit? Beware of dark corners. Blue or purple flowers, which stood out in sunlight, may become invisible in a dimly lit place. At night colors depend on the source artificial lighting. Conventional incandescent lamps can dim cool colors and brighten warm ones, while fluorescent lamps brighten cool colors and dim warm ones. By candlelight, cold tones darken, and warm tones become yellow.

How to make a flower arrangement according to the season

When arranging flowers, always consider the time of year. In Japan, the season is very important - in the Western world, it's just an additional parameter to consider.

Pay attention to the photo of flower design for spring plants:

Spring is the season of yellow and blue flowers.

In the summer comes the turn of multi-colored combinations.

Autumn calls for the use of browns, oranges and yellows.

Well, Christmas is a traditional time for white and bright red flowers.

Compositions of indoor flowers in containers

In the floral design of the apartment, the question of which container will be used remains fundamentally important. A common mistake is choosing a colorful container that detracts from the arrangement. If you are planning to use bright or patterned vases or bowls, then they must match the color in the arrangement, otherwise the container will become a more eye-catching object. When composing indoor flower arrangements, remember that white can play an important role. Always use some white flowers in a house flower arrangement placed in a colorful container.

Don't use equal amounts of different colors in your scheme - let one dominate and be complemented by others. Don't distribute the different colors evenly throughout the composition or you'll end up with a "spotted dog" effect - group some of the colors together. Be careful with solid colors - they tend to dominate. The classic recommendation is to use them in small amounts and rely mostly on midtones and tints. Light shades are easier than dark ones to fit into most schemes as they work well together.

Compositions of home flowers in monochrome

A monochrome (single-color) scheme uses different tones and shades of the same color. This is the easiest way to make sure you can convey the mood you want to create - choose red for a dramatic effect, yellow for a bright effect, blue for a calm effect, and so on.

When composing flower arrangements with your own hands, use the widest possible range of the main color, changing shades from pale to dark.

The stems and / or leaves are colored in halftones and shades of green, brown or white color, so a true monochrome scheme is only available in those tones. Limiting variation in floral interior design means that the physical form of the composition must be more pronounced through the use of a greater range of shapes, sizes, textures, etc.

Such compositions of home flowers, composed in monochrome, are usually strict and solemn.

Compositions of flowers for the interior according to a similar scheme

In a similar scheme, two, three or four adjacent colors are used in color wheel. This arrangement has some of the calm charm of a monochrome scheme, but it has a much larger range of plants to choose from. There is no need to stick to pure colors, tones and shades are very important here, which increase the attractiveness of the composition.

A similar scheme can be muted and restrained if done only in blues and lilacs, or it can be exciting in crimsons and purples. Don't use each color in equal amounts - let one dominate. In the example shown, yellow tones are suppressed by orange and brown tones.

Compositions from indoor flowers and photo arrangements according to a contrasting scheme

In contrast schemes, the selected colors are located opposite each other on the color wheel. In modern linear arranging, the goal is often to create maximum effect by coloring the flowers.

Look above at the photo of indoor flower arrangements in a contrasting scheme - pure colors are used here. For example, blue iris with orange gerberas, yellow with purple lisianthus, and so on.

Contrasting schemes are always lively, but they should not be overly bright. The secret is to use light shades of the colors used and create compositions in pastel colors - pink with pale blue, brownish yellow with lilac, etc. In this case, the contrast scheme can be muted, just like a similar one. Another approach is to use light shades of the same color and dark contrasting ones.

AT summer time flowers are sometimes collected from all corners, and then a composition is created that contains a multi-colored mixture that covers the entire spectrum. Reds and purples, yellows and blues, oranges and purples - the result can be pleasant, but very often it is not. Firstly, the effect may simply be too bright, and therefore it is usually advisable to use lighter shades of various colors. Secondly, the effect can be too colorful - avoid using all colors in equal amounts. Let just a few colors dominate the composition, and use others as a discreet addition.

The combination of colors in the composition: balance and dynamics

Physical balance is vital - if a composition is markedly asymmetrical, it can tip over. Structures must always be securely fastened and the container must be heavy enough to support the weight of the plant material. Add sand, gravel, etc. if needed.

Visual balance when combining colors in a composition requires the design to appear stable, even if it is clearly one-sided. Exist various ways for a visual increase in weight on the lighter side - dark flowers look heavier than light ones, rounded flowers look heavier than tubular ones. There is also a balance between the bottom and top.

Large flowers are placed in the center and close to the bottom of the composition, which gives a sense of good balance - incorrect placement can make the composition look unbalanced.

Dynamics involves the use of techniques and materials that make the eyes move from one part of the composition to another - this movement is associated with the rhythm present in the design.

Without rhythm (for example, a bouquet of roses standing in a vase), the arrangement looks static and monotonous. There are various ways to get this movement, and five of them are illustrated on this page.

Many linear-massive compositions and free-style arrangements apply a different design principle - dominance. This implies that there are one or more areas where the eye stops and stays there for a short time - these areas are called focal points. Usually for this include a small group of catchy flowers.

There are other ways to create focal points - an unusual container, spectacular foliage, and so on. Golden Rule is not to overdo it - no single element should dominate so much as to distract the eye for a long time from the rest of the composition.

Floral arrangement: proportions, background, texture

A flower arrangement consists of several elements that can be seen - a vessel, plant material, and possibly a stand and accessories. Good proportion means that the dimensions of the elements should be in such a ratio as to create a pleasing effect.

This is especially noticeable in landscape, small and miniature compositions, and the main culprits of the imbalance are usually oversized flowers and accessories. But a disproportionate arrangement can be in any style, and the most common reason is a vessel that is not the right size for the plant material.

The golden ratio, shown in the photo above, has long been used as a criterion for ideal proportion.

The composition can be quite proportional, but not at all suitable for the background or environment in which it is placed. To avoid the problem, several aspects must be taken into account. First of all, this is the style of the room - it is obvious that an abstract composition will look out of place in a simple cottage setting. The size of the room is no less important - a miniature composition in large and high rooms can look pathetic.

Considering the type of wall surface is also important - see photo above. There are also practical problems that should not be created, such as compositions on dinner table, interfering with the conversation, and arrangements in the hallway, preventing free passage.

Plant material can have all sorts of textures - glossy, velvety, pubescent, dull, prickly, etc. A glossy flower becomes brighter if matte foliage is nearby, and shiny leaves give shine to the composition in strong light. Role various textures- in increasing the attractiveness of the arrangement due to diversity. This is very important when there is only a slight difference in the color of the flowers, and when a free style arrangement uses a small amount of plant material.

Ideas for flower arrangements using improvised equipment

In order to bring your ideas of flower compositions to life, you need to thoroughly “arm yourself”. Don't be put off by the large number of tools and other equipment illustrated and described on these pages. Only a few (bucket, scissors, knife and watering can) are essentials for the beginner - the rest are optional. Keep sharp objects such as scissors and knives out of the reach of children, and try to keep all tools together in a box. When arranging flowers, place over working surface large plastic sheet.

A bucket of water is a necessary piece of equipment for collecting flowers from the garden and storing them while creating an arrangement. Choose a bucket with side handles, as the standard handle swings freely and can damage the flowers during transport. Don't use the flower arranging bucket in the kitchen.

Cut flower preservative in powder or liquid form mainly contains germicides to prevent slime and odors from developing in water vases, and sugar to prolong the life of fresh flowers.

Buy a knife from sharp blade- It is suitable for all kinds of use. You will need it to clean the stems, remove leaves and get rid of thorns. It is also used for processing the ends of stems - oblique cuts and, sometimes, vertical splits. There is also a need to cut out the floral sponge and remove excess molding material.

A watering can is necessary for adding water to the container and wetting the floral sponge with a composition of fresh flowers. Buy plastic ones with a long and narrow spout starting at the base of the watering can.

Never try to cut thick and woody stems with regular scissors - use secateurs instead. You can buy regular garden pruners, but there are also narrow-bladed models made especially for florists.

A handheld sprayer capable of producing a fine mist of water droplets helps keep the composition fresh in warm weather. Spray mist just above the top of the composition. Do this once when the arrangement is complete and repeat as daily as possible.

Most ordinary scissors are not suitable for cutting stems - they tend to crush tissue. Choose flower scissors with short blades, one of which is serrated. There may be a groove in the base - use it for cutting thin wire, but not for woody stems.

Use wire to tie bunches of cut flowers together. There are three main types of wire. The thickest is sold in the form of segments-blanks. Wire for tying roses and other flowers is thinner, and the thinnest is wound on a reel - it is widely used by florists to bind plant material.

Toothpicks are a convenient multifunctional assistant. Use toothpicks to poke a hole in the flower sponge for soft stems or to attach fruit to the flower arrangement sponge. Several toothpicks are sometimes screwed around the base of the candle to secure it in a tabletop arrangement.

Aerosol paints for finishing flower arrangements can be used at any time of the year, but they are especially relevant at Christmas - arrangements with gold or silver pine cones, berries, leaves and flowers can be seen everywhere. Paints are widely used on vessels, fasteners, stands, etc., as well as on plant material.

Get the necessary fasteners. Arranging flowers in a vase or jug ​​of water is an ancient way of creating flower arrangements, but virtually all modern arrangements require the use of materials that hold the leaves and flowers in place. right place inside the container. These materials and related aids are known as fasteners. They must be securely fastened and hidden from view. Only a few (floral sponge, florist clay, arranging grid and "frog" fixers) are essentials - the rest are optional.

floral sponge(other name: floral foam) is a porous plastic invented in 1940. It has become the main method of fixing flowers for home arrangements. There are two types - green "frog" sponge, which is soaked in water and then used for fresh plant material, and brown or gray sponge, which is only used for dry and artificial compositions. The green sponge happens various forms- blocks ("bricks") and cylinders are the most popular. This is a very light material, but its weight increases by more than 30 times when saturated with water. This green sponge should never dry out after soaking it.

If you wrap it in foil or plastic wrap after use, it may be good for a few more arrangements. The great advantage of the sponge is that the stems can be positioned at any angle, both in shallow and deep vessels, and the problem of water rotting is also eliminated. It has few drawbacks - for a large composition, additional support with wire mesh is needed and some plants (for example, daffodils and tulips) hardly absorb water from it.

Adhesive adhesive tape is both wide and narrow. Wide tape is mainly used to secure a floral sponge or wire mesh in a vessel. Narrow bands are sometimes strung across the top of a shallow, wide-mouthed vessel in a criss-cross pattern to form a net that holds the plants.

Retainer- This is the simplest type of sponge attachment. This is a small plastic disc with four vertical teeth - the base is attached to the container with plasticine, and a block or cylinder of a floral sponge is mounted on the teeth. If a large block of floral sponge is used, more than one retainer may be required.

Floral clay A non-hardening adhesive tape that holds dry surfaces together. It is widely used to fix a frog, tattoo or candle holder in a container and comes in brown and green. Ordinary plasticine can be used as a replacement.

tattoo(other name: kenzan) is needed to support the DIY flower arrangement in the shape you need. Many sharp pins are firmly held in a solid base, which may be round or rectangular shape. Its main advantage is that it will securely hold thick and heavy stems. Tattoos can be used on their own in a shallow bowl or together with other attachments for a large composition in a deep container. Choose a model with a heavy base and lots of sharp copper prongs. The disadvantage of this mount is that it is expensive. If you can only afford one tattoo, choose round size 8 cm. Attach it to the base of the container using floral plasticine. The tattoo is built into the bottom of a metal bowl that holds water. In this case, there is no need for an additional vessel.

Floral test tubes(other name: flower extensions) are miniature vases used in large flower arrangements where the leaves and flowers must be placed higher than their stem height allows. Usually they are about 30 cm long and with a pointed end, as a rule, are attached to a stick, which is then stuck into a floral sponge or wire mesh. Fill the test tube with water before inserting the stems.

small pebbles, round and flattened glass beads have long been used to hold the stems of cut flowers. With this arrangement of stems, there will be slight mobility in the arrangement.

Arrangement grid(another name: wire mesh, looped wire) may also be needed when composing a composition of indoor flowers. Buy a thin mesh with 5 cm cells. Cut off the hard edge, roll into a tube, crumple into a ball and place in a container. Wire mesh is the preferred fastening method for arrangements with many tall or heavy stems. A mesh with 3 cm mesh is often used to cover a floral sponge block if a large arrangement is planned. Some specialists prefer galvanized mesh to plastic-coated mesh. Be careful not to scratch the sides of the valuable vessel with it. Wash and dry the mesh after use - it can be used repeatedly.

If you want to create a wedding bouquet yourself, then choose any of the two suggested methods. Learn about the language of plants, the principles of composing flower compositions.

Flowers are amazing natural creations. One glance at them is sometimes enough to cheer yourself up. Rooms are decorated with flowers, tables are decorated during a significant event, presented as a sign of respect and love. They are bred at home, in the country. It's nice and easy to go out into nature in summer to admire the flowering of charming plants and plunge into their aroma.

plant language

If you know how to make a bouquet, then you can become a florist at least in your family and delight friends and loved ones with such picturesque gifts. A different color, different groups of plants are able to say for a person what he did not dare to tell.

Before you arrange a bouquet, learn about the language of flowers:

• Anyone who wants to express his admiration, let him present a bouquet of lilies and camellias.
• Mimosa will hint that the donor carefully hides his feelings for you.
• If you were handed a bouquet of white irises or pink or red roses, tulips, these plants speak eloquently of love.
• Also, red and white roses can say in the language of flowers that you are the soulmate of the giver (at least he or she thinks so).
• But it is better not to get yellow carnations, as these flowers will report the unpleasant news that they have stopped loving you.
• Carnations of a different color, chrysanthemums and hyacinths are awarded as a sign of respect.
• Be sure someone is fascinated by you if they presented a bouquet of lavender, violets or burgundy roses.
• If a bouquet of orchids and chrysanthemums is made up, it means that the donor is pleased to meet you.
• And one or more branches of lilac will remind you or let you know that you were the first love of the giver.

Now you know which plants to use when arranging bouquets to express exactly the emotions that you experience. It's time to familiarize yourself with simple rules production of compositions from natural flowers.

How to make a bouquet

If you want to assemble a spring arrangement of fresh flowers, then use plants of no more than three colors. Of course, the range of shades should be combined with each other.

For example, if you take a purple lilac and want to add tulips to the composition, then they should not be red or yellow. In this case, it will not be possible to achieve tenderness. To make it, include white, light pink or pale lilac tulips in the bouquet.

You can add other flowers, such as hyacinths, but they should also be of a delicate color and blend in with the rest of the plants.

Speaking about how to make bouquets, it is important to note that one can have several names of plants. A composition that uses gerberas, red tulips, gypsophila, and chrysanthemums looks beautiful.

At the same time, it is important to observe the color palette and the principle of composing a bouquet:

1. Arrange the lightest or smallest flowers along its edges, but they should not hang down. Gypsophila will look great here. Put dark and bright plants in the center of the composition. Falling and curly are placed near the stems of the primary flowers.
2. Don't use a lot of greens. It is enough to add a carved palm leaf or a fluffy sprig of asparagus. At the same time, greens should not rise above the flowers, unlike cereals.
3. Drawing up bouquets also includes the knowledge that the flowers in such a composition should not be located close to each other, let them look freely.
4. When creating a composition, consider its concept. When you make a field bouquet, do not combine "complex" and "simple" flowers in it. Indeed, among lilies of the valley, daffodils, small daisies, for example, an exotic anthurium, an orchid will look ridiculous. The charm and elegance of a "simple" bouquet of small daisies, lilies of the valley will be emphasized by solidago, iris and other flowers, sustained in the same color range.
5. Use plants that are in different stages of dissolution: let there be strong buds here, slightly blossomed and fully opened.

So that vampire flowers (such as narcissus) do not negatively affect others by releasing specific juice, first cut their stems, put them in a separate container with water for 2-3 hours, and only then add them to the bouquet.

To cut flowers do not wilt longer, put a sprig of geranium or arborvitae to them. At least every other day, cut the stems, rinse them and change the water in the vase to fresh.

Examples of creating compositions from fresh flowers

If you do not know how to create a bouquet for a teacher, the one below will be ideal option. Indeed, in the language of flowers, hydrangea means "impartiality."

To create such an arrangement of flowers, you will need the following:

• blue hydrangea, red lily, solidago, spray white chrysanthemum, greenery;
• floral sponge "oasis";
• thin cardboard;
• polyethylene film;
• artificial small apples;
• coconut fiber sisal;
• red spray paint;
• thick aluminum wire;
• glue gun and silicone glue for it;
• thin floral wire;
• wire cutters;
• scissors.

Take cardboard, form a 25 cm high bag out of it. Fix it with glue. Use the aluminum wire to make a small loop that will hold the other end of the wire in place when you remove it from the bottom of the bag.

If you are using board that matches the color of the sisal fibre, then you do not need to dye. If the shades differ, then cover the outside of the bag with paint from a spray can.

Disassemble the sisal fabric or use coconut. With help glue gun attach this decor element to the cardboard horn. And at the bottom, wind it onto a curl of wire.

Take a floral sponge, dip it into a container of water. So that it is soaked with liquid evenly, do not drown it with your hands. After 20 minutes, remove the sponge, cut a blank out of it so that it matches the internal dimensions of the bag. To prevent the cardboard from getting wet, wrap the sponge horn in cellophane, leaving only the top part free.

We will insert flowers into it. Trim them and stick the shortened stems into the sponge horn. To make a bouquet of flowers, first we take a lily, solidago and greenery.

After you put them in the "oasis", stick hydrangea, chrysanthemums in the same place and decorate your creation with artificial apples, stringing them on small pieces of wire. You can use toothpicks instead.

Flowers in a bouquet should be close enough, but not overlap each other. Along with the blossoming lily, its buds also look beautiful.

You can make such beautiful flower arrangements yourself and present them to a teacher or other respected person.

Jewelry for the bride

Flowers are used not only to decorate the newlywed's hairstyle, decorate the hall, festive table, but also, of course, to make the bride's bouquet.

Below will be presented 2 master classes on this topic. In the first one, the flowers for the wedding bouquet will be decorated with the help of a flower porter. The second one doesn't.

Portbouquet holder is a hollow plastic tube, expanding towards the top, into which a floral sponge is inserted. It is saturated with a preservative solution or water so that the liquid nourishes the flowers for some time.

A bride's wedding bouquet made using this device will not only look beautiful, but will also be able to stay fresh all the time. holiday.

To create this you will need:

• Portfolio "Lady";
• satin ribbon;
• a piece of sponge "oasis";
• anchor tape;
• green teip tape;
• double sided tape;
• 4 white and 5 crimson roses;
• salal leaves;
• viburnum (viburnum berries);
• scissors;
• pliers.

Carefully remove the sponge from the mouthpiece by removing plastic mesh to insert a piece of dry "oasis" into the hollow tube.

The will of the bride should look perfect both from the front and from reverse side. Therefore, we decorate the outer upper part of the flowerpot with salal leaves, gluing them on double-sided tape.

For a better fit, you need to fix these leaves on the ribbed surface with anchor tape.

So that it is not visible, we wrap a tape tape of light green color on top of it.

If you have dry Crisal powder, add a little of it to cold water so that the sponge soaked in this solution nourishes the flowers.

If not, then place the semi-circular piece of "oasis" that you first took out of the cone into the water. Do not forget, he must drown in it himself, without your help, then it will be saturated with moisture evenly.

After this happens, take out the sponge, put it in its place in the purse and fix it by closing it with a net. Moreover, the latter should snap into place on the white part of the horn.

Next, we form the bride's bouquet with our own hands, or by calling assistants. Let's move on to decorating the handle of the horn, since the composition should look amazing from all sides. Starting from the bottom of the port bouquet, glue its narrow part with double-sided tape, place a white satin ribbon on top of it. Attach its tip with a glue gun.

Now decorate the lateral expanding part of the horn with leaves. Cut their stem at an angle and immediately pierce it with a sponge.

So that the water flowing down from the sponge does not wet the handle of the port bag, we put a dry piece of “oasis” into its hollow part. It will absorb excess moisture, leaving the bottom of the bouquet dry and the bride's hands clean.

We begin to decorate a bouquet for a wedding with flowers. Trim the brighter roses at an angle first, spacing 3 on one side and 2 on the other side of the sponge. Then stick white flowers, and fill the gaps between the roses with viburnum and leaves. After that, the composition for the bride of roses, leaves and unripe viburnum berries is ready.

Another bridal bouquet

If you do not have special devices, then you can perform the composition using a different technique. Not only the bride's bouquet consists of such roses, it can be made and presented, timed to coincide with another event. This is what the resulting composition looks like.

For her, we have prepared:

• 10 single-headed roses;
• 20 spray roses;
• greens for cuff decoration;
• tape.

First you need to cut off all the leaves from the stem and separate spray rose for inflorescences. For greens, remove excess from the stems. Now you can proceed to the main stage of work.

To make a beautiful bouquet, start by placing 5 flowers parallel to each other. Their height should be the same. Place the next, sixth rose at a slight angle. Set the seventh also obliquely.

Gradually, slightly turning the bouquet in one direction, arrange all the roses in this way. As a result of applying this spiral technique, you will get a beautiful hemispherical shape. Tie it with anchor tape or tape, wrapping it around several times, tie it off, cut off the excess.

To create a cuff, also spirally overlay the bouquet around the outer circle with greenery. Then tie the composition again, already with greens.

Trim the ends of the petioles with sharp scissors or pruners so that they are the same height and the cuts are perpendicular. When you hold the composition, the remaining stems should be slightly longer than the palm of your hand. Now you know how to make a bridal bouquet in another way.

Gift for your girlfriend

Flowers, decorated in the shape of a heart, touch any woman. And if you make a bouquet with sweets, you will like this gift even more. To draw up such original present little is needed, namely:

• red carnations;
• floral anchor tape;
• ribbon;
• scissors;
• wide green teip tape;
• ornaments in the form of butterflies on a wire;
• pink or scarlet silk ribbon;
• thick floral colored aluminum wire;
• sweets "Raffaello" or others in a wrapper.

Here are the stages of work that await you. Keeping the carnation stems evenly spaced, carefully string each flower onto the florist wire using the spiral technique. Then bend it into a heart shape. Tie the stems with floral tape.

Now decorate the stems with a wide decorative ribbon, and tie a scarlet bow over it.

Wrap the inside of the carnation heart with a thin textile ribbon. To do this, skip it between the colors in different directions. Fill the resulting bowl with sweets and decorate the bouquet with butterflies. After that, you can give a beautiful, fragrant, tasty gift.

There are many more ideas that give both fresh and dried flowers, as well as houseplants. You can find them in the following articles. In the meantime, we suggest you watch interesting videos that will help you better master the presented technique for creating bouquets:
