Suggestions For Making Arrangements of Flowers For the Special Day

Submitted by Connor R Sullivan
When choosing flowers for a grand occasion such as a wedding, it is important to consider that the floral arrangements should reflect the spirit of the bride’s special day. From decorations to bouquets and table arrangements, many brides don’t have the idea as to which of those to select. It is important to choose flowers considering the preference of the bride and groom, place of reception, color of the bride’s dress and if there is any existing theme. Fresh flowers can be ordered at flower shops which specialize in making wedding table centerpieces, bouquets, posies, and other types of flower arrangements.

However, the most important point to consider before ordering flowers is the season in which the wedding is going to be held. Most of the varieties in flowers can be found all year long, but seasonal flowers can be easily obtained and at a much cheaper price. Fresh flowers are quite a reasonable choice for planning wedding day arrangements. However, a few brides may also choose to have arrangements made of artificial flowers and dried flowers for table centerpieces. An overall aspect of the different flowers available during the different seasons may help to plan the arrangements in budget and at the same time allow having the most suitable flowers for the wedding.

Flower arrangements for the wedding need certain things to be acknowledged. The first and the foremost thing is the color. There are a number of books available online that can be of help in choosing the best kind of arrangement. It depends on the individual’s interest whether to make the arrangements large or small or colorful. A delicate look can be obtained by using orchids which is sure to take away everyone’s breath with its loveliness and sheer elegance. It is always important to consider the location where the arrangements are going to be placed so that they are set apart from the ordinary ones.

Furthermore, during the fall, wedding arrangements can both comprise of foliage and flowers as it gives a pleasant and warm feel while creating a tasteful ambience. Elaborate flower arrangements not only is cost effective, but also add elegance to the overall decoration on the special day. The flower bouquet of the bridesmaid can be matched with the color of the dress. A good option is to have the bridesmaid wear light pink color dress while the bride wears traditional white. This way the flowers for the bouquet can be chosen in shades of pink and white.

Moreover, the main flowers can consist of roses, lilies, carnations and rosebuds together with lily of the valley and ivy which will make an ideal background for the main flowers. An elegant and sophisticated look can be achieved by a teardrop shaped bouquet handheld by the bride. For the bridesmaid, a round formal posy with greens, net or lace as distinctive trimmings would be ideal. To achieve a harmonious and warm look, both the brides and bridesmaids bouquets should be complemented with the same colors.

How to Create Spectacular Arrangements With Dried Flowers

Submitted by Jennifer P Miller
There nothing more eye-catching than a gorgeous flower arrangement in the home! They can create a welcoming feeling for guests, provide cheerfulness or relaxation, and are great compliments to any decor. They can either be purchased pre-arranged or can be handmade using your favorite types of silk or dried flowers. If you’re like many of us and are on a budget, it’s a more cost-effective choice to make the arrangement yourself. This way, you’re sure to find sales on the materials and aren’t paying for someone else to do the arranging for you!

Life Imitates Art

One neat trick to making a dramatic statement in a room is to purchase a painting (or use and existing one) and re-create the scene in the picture. For example, a silver bowl filled with pears in a painting can inspire you to find a silver dish at a rummage sale or thrift store and then buy some faux pears at the craft store when they are on sale. You can probably make something like this for under $20 whereas, if you had purchased it pre-arranged, it could cost $100 or more at an upscale design accessory or craft store.

You can do the same scene mimicking with flower arrangements. Find (or use an existing) picture or painting to springboard the type of dried flowers and colors you’ll be using in your project. Even if you don’t have a picture of a flower arrangement, use any existing framed work of art and locate 3 or 4 main colors and begin there. For example, a café scene in a frame could inspire you to pick up the red in the awning, the orange in the outside bistro tables, and the brown in the jars of coffee beans inside the shop window. You can really play around with your arrangements and make the picture come to life with your arrangements! Use the tallest stalks in the center for height and then add shorter ones around the outer perimeter. If you’re using silk plants, gently bend them so they appear more like the real thing.

Ah, the Aroma of Fragrant Dried Flowers

Fragrance is one of the great advantages to using dried plants and flowers. Buy dried flowers in bulk for the best deals, for example, buy bunches instead of stalks, and you’ll save more money. Dried lavender, chamomile, China tea, eucalyptus, or roses can be bought by the bunch and have fragrances that can’t be beat! You can also buy just the dried buds of the flowers and make dishes filled with combination’s of fragrant flowers, pine cones, dried wood shavings, or tiny gourds, and sprinkle them with potpourri spray or essential oils so they can bring a pleasant aroma to any room they are in.

Budgets are Welcome

If you’re working on an especially tight budget, online coupons and specials can be found easily along with weekly specials in the paper or from your mailbox. You don’t have to look very hard to find special discounts and deals these days! You can definitely make numerous arrangements for your home with very little investment. Any of these great ideas also make super gifts to give for any occasion. Try making one for your mom, sister, or a friend and see how touched they are when they see the beautiful arrangement you’ve created just for them!

Special Occasion Dried Flower Arrangements

Submitted by Roy R Reyer
With all the special occasions spring brings, think flowers, dried that is. Many choices wait. So begin with the selection of the Tilandsia in green, as center of interest along with preserved Lasiantha leaves in dark green placed in a large crystal goblet to which assorted moss stones have been added in the bottom. Keeping in the cool shades of green, add basil Stone beans & preserved frosted Eucalyptus in olive, to bring height to the arrangement. For a finished touch add a basil colored raffia bow. This makes for a cool & refreshing touch, adding beauty & charm.

Coming up soon will be Fathers Day, and Dads do like flowers, too, if we don’t make it to frou-frou looking. I’m thinking for my Dad, something simple, using a grouping of natural wheat (as he is a retired farmer) combined with pencil slim natural Cattails mixed with the flax grass assortment of brown/Bordeaux/natural. For special interest I’ll add a few natural wild turkey skirt feathers. (He’ll love this, as he feeds wild turkeys at his ranch everyday during the winter). I’ll place these in a beer stein with a note: “Check the fridge”

“Tis the Season” is not just for Christmas anymore. Weddings fit that description this time of year. Our grand-daughter has found the man of her dreams, so yes; we’re planning a country wedding & reception to be held outdoors. To my delight, I’ve been asked to help with floral arrangements for the dining table using the bride’s choice of colors & natural dried products. She has suggested using small 12″ bundles of birch branches, adding to the tops of each (at random) natural picked assorted pods of pinecones, okra, lotus, & jinga tied with 2″ wide tan organza ribbon. For the gift & registration table we plan to use a decorated hat box designed with birch branches circling it, held in place with natural raffia, with assorted pods scattered around the bottom, placed on top next to the cut-out slot for wedding cards, will be a tan bow. Included on the table will are the guest book, & a basket filled with complimentary favors/mini net bags filled with lavender buds. Now all we need is perfect weather, the Bride & Groom & “I DO’s”.

Decorating Your Wedding With Flower Arrangements – Part Two

Submitted by Tracey Wilson
Welcome to Part Two of how to Decorate your wedding. Part One gave you ideas for invitations, name plates and placemats. In this issue, we’ll deal with flower arrangements. Flower arrangements do not stop at placement around the room, or the ones the bride and bridesmaids will carry – but they are for the centerpiece on the tables, over archways, doors, by the bathrooms, the wedding arch, etc . . .

No matter how unattractive a room is, you can transform it with decorations from the flower arrangements. You want to choose arrangements that will fit the size of your room. If you have a big room, make the flower arrangements big and wide, for a narrower, smaller room, make them taller. This will bring the focus up, instead of out. Wide arrangements will take the focus out, around the room.

For strong color, interesting texture, and a wonderful fragrance, use fruit with your flowers, to create an impressive centerpiece. Think of grapes, citrus fruits, or apples tucked into flowers, or gilded and silver pears piled high for a winter celebration.

For a delicate, airy centerpiece for your reception tables, place an orchid plant in a footed urn or glass container in the center of the table. Cover the soil with green moss or river rocks. Or you can use several small vases arranged in the center of each table, filled with their very own flower, that makes a beautiful, natural-looking bouquet. Offer them as a keepsake to each guest at the end of the reception.

Flowers can be an expensive part of a wedding. Don’t let your need and want for beauty break the bank. You don’t have to buy your flowers from a flower shop. Look in your friend’s gardens, roadside flower peddlers, etc… A florist will be happy to answer your questions of which flowers are in season, she may even have a list. Don’t be shy to ask questions. Don’t be afraid to use inexpensive blooms for arrangements. When they are all placed together, they can make an impression that will strike anyone’s fancy. Less is more – Sometimes the smallest bouquets can make the biggest impact. You may also want to consider working with just a few basic colors – or if it’s easier on the budget, do a hodgepodge of complimentary colors. You may also want to think about doing fewer, but more extraordinary arrangements. Don’t be afraid to use a lot of greenery, such as ivy, and texture-rich ferns. Be sure to check into silk and dried flowers to.

To make the bride and groom feel special, decorate the back of their chairs with flowers, greenery and ribbons, or swags. Make sure to select blooms that will not stain their clothing. Silk or dried flowers will work great for this. Decorate the cake knife, server and toasting flute with small nosegay of flowers and ribbons. Place large pots with potted plants around the dance floor. Decorate an arch with flowers to define the dance floor as well. Don’t forget to mark the bathrooms with a small arrangement.

Most of all, don’t go broke. With a little bit of investigation; looking on the internet, library, etc . . . you can find just the right ideas for decorating your special day.

Unique Flower Arrangements

Submitted by Ken Marlborough
Fresh flowers are not the only flowers that you can use to make a beautiful flower arrangement. You can make a flower arrangement out of dried flowers, too. Contrary to most people’s opinion, dried flowers can still be used for so many purposes like in making flower arrangements.

There are many ways to dry fresh flowers. You can freeze-dry them, air-dry them by hanging them upside down, use silica gel, or place them in the microwave – just be sure to follow instructions on how to do these things carefully.

When arranging dried flowers, place a vase on a lazy Susan with the base of the vase stuck with floral clay and a piece of foam fixed into the vase. Using lepidium, lavender and a straw, provide an over-all shape to your arrangement. Then, fill center up with flax, foliage, galax leaves, or maidenhair fern. Position your flowers in descending order of size where large flowers such as hydrangea are the ones placed first, then moving on to the medium-sized ones. Do not forget to space them evenly. For a better effect, add delphinium, larkspur, or dried flax.

When making a bouquet of dried flowers, it helps to imagine a triangular floral arrangement with a flat back. Make an arrangement that is 1 1/2 times bigger than the size of the vase. Begin by placing twigs, ferns, spike flowers, and long seed heads. To show depth, longer pieces such as larkspur should be used at the back of the arrangement.

To finish it up, add filling material such as statice, tansy, or hortensia, extending at least half the height of the twigs and ferns. For greater appeal, the most attractive flowers with the main colors of the arrangement should be located at the center.

Make sure that the arrangement is balanced well–not too heavy on one side. And to maintain the arrangement’s basic shape, keep filling it up with flowers and heighten its effect with seed heads and grasses.

The Art of Flower Arrangement

Submitted by Finn Jensen
There are at the moment thousands of sites on the internet that can arrange for you to have some flowers delivered. It is a fast and handy way for you to send flowers and you can even order for them to be sent the same day so that you will never miss that special occasion.

Although there are numerous advantages to using an online florist, there are also some issues that you should be made aware of. If you simply choose the first florist that you see on the internet, you may in fact be in contact with a call center that then contacts a florist located close to where your flowers are to be delivered. This means that you can’t use the knowledge of florists, and they may well charge you a lot more than if you had gone straight to a florist. Nevertheless, not all sites are like this and once you have found one that you are happy with, there is nothing to stop you ordering flowers for every occasion, because this is the easiest way to do it.

Flower arrangement is an art that first originated centuries ago and travelled all over the world, taking different forms in different countries is now a part of our lives. Flower arrangements first appeared in Classical Greek and Roman times and went on to be defined as an art in Europe from the 14th -17th centuries before turning east to America, China, and Japan.

Funky Wedding Flowers

Submitted by Karen Lincoln
Selecting wedding flowers can sometimes be very exciting and at times very stressful. With the help of a wedding planner or a designer, you can reduce your stress and enjoy the moment.

A decoration for your best day ceremony and reception depends mainly on the personal budget and preferences. Hence, you can always pick from the most traditional styles of flowers which are hand tied bouquets with a little bit of European flavor which is sweet and romantic or you can go in for the Victorian or even choose the exotic and funky flowers. Bridal bouquets can be as simple as one flower or to a big, long, renaissance creation (but remember this renaissance bouquet can be very heavy).

Funky flowers are for those brides who want to add a little bit of zing to their wedding day. Something really different, which can be cherished. Funky flowers are really bright and refreshing. Unusual blooms remind us about the amazing exotic flowers. All these funky long lasting flowers can be dried and used later in a dried flower arrangement.

Flowers are one of the most important visual elements in a wedding and should always compliment and not overpower the wedding dress or the bridesmaid’s dress. Wedding flowers always create a colorful impact on a wedding.

Choosing a style – So create lasting memories with the help of nature. You can use your favorite ideas and creative skills to put together an elegant floral bouquet. Flowers should compliment the wedding gown with the style and color or it can even compliment the wedding theme.

• All white bridal wedding bouquet- For an elegant and sophisticated formal look you can create an all white flower bouquet. White flowers such as roses and lilies can come in many shades of white and this bouquet will go well with the white wedding theme.

• Rainbow colors- Rich colors generally stand out and draw attention towards the bride. So choose flower colors that can enhance the wedding décor and the bridesmaid’s dresses. You have the option of selecting from the spectrum of flower colors including the soft pinks to the rich cranberry and the delicate mauve. While selecting colorful flowers, match the flowers to the dresses so that it looks subtle or if you want to call for attention then you can go funky and select contrasting tones.

• Buds beauty- Select flower buds that look like oval berries sometimes it looks more beautiful then the opened blooms. If combined with long stems or in clusters they accent a bridal bouquet.

• Hand tied bouquet- For an elegant custom look you can have a hand tied bridal bouquet. You may have to keep this bouquet in water till it is used or it may not remain fresh.

Creating Dried Flower Floral Arrangements

Submitted by Roy R Reyer
Gather round all you ladies & yes, gents, too. The fun & enjoyment of working with dried flowers awaits you. 1st. off we will begin by creating gorgeous floral arrangements using natural products to bring vibrant color to home accessories. Imagine this if you will, the combination of colored exotics like the mango Ting Ting flowers mixed with the longer twisted Ting Ting in mango, keeping the twisted Ting as the highest point in the arrangement. Use Brown, Bordeaux or Mango Flax grass as filler. Add several (5) 24” long stem natural Pro Tea flowers. Place these in a fairly tall marble looking vase, or a terra cotta pot. Bring one of the Pro Tea flowers & a few of the Ting Ting’s down in front of the vase or pot. Play with the arrangement till you get just the look you want & for a job well done.

After all that work we need to relax. To help bring a restful, refreshing feel to our habitat, bring on the domestically grown English lavender mixed with the white Larkspur & the preserved dark green Lasiantha, arranged in a metal Americana pitcher, for an aromatic potpourri treat. Sit near an open window or air vent.

While we’re on this smell good potpourri kick, gather-up the flavorful cinnamon sticks & lavender buds. We can crush them up or make a bundle of the sticks, tied with a ribbon on a bed of lavender buds in a wicker basket, adding a few lavender blooms for a complete smell good temptation. If lavender is not your choice, select several stems of polished preserved Eucalyptus in array of vibrant color of blue, camel, green, olive, orange, purple or red. Tie with ribbon & place on a shelf or windowsill.

Since many of us love to craft, I have an idea. Take several strands of the natural raffia (length of choice); make a knot at the top end. Attach at random by gluing or tying, natural dried fruits such as apple slices, grapefruit slices, & orange slices, including cinnamon sticks tied on with small raffia bows at each one of the fruit slices. Brew –up a cup of tea or apple cider, pop-in a cinnamon stick, stir gently, wake –up the taste buds, as well as the sinuses. Another simpler option would be to gather-up the yummy fruit slices, including the whole split orange, place in a crystal bowl. Stir often & enjoy.

With all these aromatic natural products available for wholesale purchases at www.schustersoftexas.com there is no excuse for not having good smelling homes.

With the use of the honeysuckle garland shaped into an arched bundle as the base, attach preserved foliage of burgundy Peppermint & burgundy Cedar with raffia ties. Add a few natural sun Palms @ random along with burgundy parchment Hydrangeas, pinching off a few blooms to place at strategic points on the sun Palms. Now you have a vibrant

colored swag, HANG ANYWHERE, HANG EVERYWHERE.

Pressed Flowers – Handcrafting Cards and Scrapbooks From Nature

Submitted by Scott Henderson
Dried flowers have been used decoratively since prehistoric times. Early Japanese art used pressed flowers and leaves to create scenes of landscapes and gardens. Pressing flowers flat while drying them, however, seems to have become popular in Western culture during the Renaissance (14th-17thcenturies). This was a time of rebirth for the arts and the sciences, and botany, the study of plants, became a popular hobby. Plant classifications were developed and soon even amateurs were pressing and cataloging the herbs and flowers in their gardens. The Victorians, of course, raised it to an artform.

Today, pressed flowers can be beautiful natural decorations for notecards, greeting cards, scrapbook pages and other crafts. Yes, you can buy a commercial flower press, if you think you are going to get into pressing in a big way. For the rest of us who want to press flowers occasionally, there is this simple “home-made” version method.

Pick several delicate flowers at the peak of their bloom, as well as some leaves.Lay a piece of blotting paper on top of several sheets of newspaper on a flat surface. (For very succulent flowers, use more newspaper to absorb the moisture).Place the flowers and leaves on the blotting paper without overlapping them.Cover them with another sheet of blotting paper and several more sheets of newspaper.Place heavy books, phone books, or a bowling ball on top.Let sit for 3-4 weeks in a cool, dry place. Check the flowers every few days for the first week, and once a week after that. With tweezers, carefully peel the flowers from the blotting paper and reposition them to prevent them from adhering. Replace the newspapers at the same time.After four weeks, the flowers should be stiff and dry and the paper should feel dry. If not, leave them for another week.Now, your dried, pressed flowers are ready to embellish greeting and note cards, scrapbook pages, or other crafts. Use tweezers to handle and position them on your surface. When you like your arrangement, glue them down with white glue using a small paintbrush, being sure to glue all edges. As they dry, press them under a piece of wax paper and a heavy book for a day to prevent curling. You can protect your final work with a spray of clear polyurethane, a coat of decoupage medium, or laminating.

There is a quicker, easier method for making pressed flowers using your home microwave oven – if you are “pressed” for time!

How To Save On Your Wedding Flowers

Submitted by Liztiany Zakaria
Face it, weddings can be expensive.

Anytime that you can cut costs without compromising quality you would be wise to take advantage of the opportunity.

There are some things that you can do to reduce your floral expenses but still have beautiful flowers for your wedding.

After all, wedding flowers are the finishing touch to your special day.

Use Flowers that are “In Season”

When you go to the market, fruit is more expensive when it is out of season and less expensive when it is in season. The same goes for flowers.

Try to select your wedding flowers so that they will be in season at the time of your wedding.

Give Your Florist Creative Freedom

You can save some money by allowing your florist to have a little creative freedom.

Give them your color scheme, perhaps some swatches, and let them know the style of wedding you are planning.

If you have any flowers that you absolutely do not want, let them know that too. Then let them go about selecting your wedding flowers for you.

Be honest with your florist and let them know that you are on a tight budget then let them find the best floral deals for you.

Take Advantage of Holidays

Choosing to have your wedding close to Christmas or just after Easter could be quite a coup in saving on your floral bill.

Most churches and chapels are already decorated for the holiday so your budget will be cut substantially.

The floral decorating is already done for you.

Consider having your Wedding Outdoors

Having your wedding outdoors, in a garden can give you the beauty of natural wedding flowers.

A garden full of blooms is a lovely backdrop for your wedding. It is also a very inexpensive way to decorate.

An outdoor wedding has a simple quality and is very beautiful.

There are some special considerations that you must remember for an outdoor wedding, but it can create beautiful, special memories.

Try Rentals

Renting large potted plants or tropical palms can be an option. They will fill large spaces and usually cost less than purchasing a bunch of flowers to fill the same area.

They can give your ceremony style and bring warmth to the area. This may be an option that will help you save some money.

Do it Yourself

Some creative brides are opting to do their wedding flowers themselves. A few roses set against a spray of babies breath and tied with a ribbon makes a lovely bouquet.

Sprinkling some rose petals on the table and around some pillar candles is very simple, yet stunning.

The options are only limited by your imagination.

Silk flowers or dried flowers may also be an option and you can put them in a vase with some colored marbles or pebbles.

When it comes to decorating for your wedding, remember, it is “your wedding” so do what feels right to you.

Select your wedding flowers to reflect your personality and style as well as that of your groom’s.

A beautiful wedding does not have to cost a fortune.

Silk Flower Arrangements

Submitted by Peter Emerson
Floral arrangements always bring vibrancy, elegance, and a sense of beauty into a room or to a person. Flowers appeal to our innermost selves and allow us to cut a snippet of earth’s grandeur and take it indoors or wherever we choose. They give voice to emotions and make perfect gifts that speak volumes. Flowers also denote divine and virgin beauty. It is no surprise that floral arrangements are used to decorate places of worship, banquets, hotel lobbies, wedding receptions, and the like.

Silk flowers are known to imitate their original counterparts very well; further, they endure hot and cold climates relatively well. Floral designers will also find silk flowers very easy to work with because very little care has to be taken and mistakes can be easily rectified. There are a variety of arrangements that can be worked upon and enhanced. Combining silk flowers with fresh flowers or dried flowers gives one amazing results, and it adds to the ambience of a particular arrangement.

With silk flowers, you can make quick, beautiful floral arrangements with a few snips here and there and a shifting of flowers. You can also make elaborate and sophisticated silk flower arrangements by picking the right silk flower to matches your décor and taste. Also, with silk flowers, there is very little waste. If you have left over pieces (leaves, blooms, and so forth), you can just pack them away and keep them for later design. And there is room for mistake with silk flower arrangements. If, for example, you have cut a stem too short, fret not. Just add a floral pick or wire to the end of the stem, and the problem is solved.
