People like nothing more than freshly cut flowers whether they are placed on the dinner table, by the window sill or on the kitchen table. Growing flowers and arranging flowers are entirely different task. Anyone can use their garden flowers to create a bouquet but not everyone has the sense to create elegant flower arrangements. Thus, they can also be delivered by flower company. Below are some tips for creating beautiful bouquets and flower arrangements:
- Creatively use different types of vases or flower holders
There are different ways in which you can easily hold flowers or make flower arrangements. There are various types of baskets, watering cans, ceramic bowls or tea cups that can be used as a base in flower arrangements. Different kinds of holders give a unique type of flare and beauty to bouquet. Make sure that the flower holder matches or compliments the colors and types of flowers. You can easily see different kinds of flower holders on online florist websites or web pages.
- Always give attention to color combination while making a bouquet
Colors are one the most impactful aspects of a bouquet or a flower arrangement so special attention should be given to the color of flowers used in the arrangement or bouquet. Most florist advise using monochromatic color scheme, meaning flowers of same hues should be used in a bouquet for a consistent look. Or you can use complimentary colored flowers in bouquets to give a bold and bright look. These kinds of flowers are often used in congratulatory bouquets or wedding bouquet.
- Addition of textures
Stems can be used as fillers in bouquets. You can also add branches, pussy willow, tall grass or ferns to add some texture to bouquets. These help to fill up the empty spaces and also enhance the look of the bouquet. These are easily available at a flower shop and on online florist websites or you can get them delivered to your home by flower shop.
- Different kinds of aromas
Each flower has a distinct fragrance or aroma. Some people like strong fragrances; on the other hand, some people like delicate and subtle aromas. So make sure you select your scents carefully.
- Support flowers
Use plastic bands to tie flowers together before arranging them in a vase or container. This ensures that all types of flowers whether they are small or tall are secured. You can also use scotch tape to secure flowers in a holder.
These are some of the tips that will help you arrange flowers at home.
