Tips on Making Flower Arrangements

By: Bobbie McKee..

There is nothing more gorgeous than flowers in bloom arranged cleverly in a delicate, crystal vase. Do you want to learn how to make those kinds of floral arrangements that often get featured on TV or magazines?

There are no hard and fast rules, but there are steps that you can take in order to create your own beautiful flower arrangements that you can be proud of.

Tip #1: Use Your Instincts

Forget the rules! There is an artist in every one of us. Some are just hidden and sleeping, waiting for you to come wake it up. And the great thing about floral arrangements is that it takes so little from you to make them look striking. After all, flowers are things of beauty on their own.

Instead, trust your instincts. Let your eyes be your funnel. Just pay attention and you will immediately know which flower arrangements are more pleasant to the eyes.

Tip #2: Combine Small Flowers

You can never go wrong if you do this. With all these large and more assertive blooms around them, the tiny flowers get besieged. They are also harder to grab and reposition.

By keeping smaller flowers together, it is easier for you handle them and give your arrangements a more distinguishing impression. You can do this by grouping them together with ribbon, floral wire or floral tape.

Tip #3: Single Blooms

A common arrangement that people often resort to is a single rose in a vase. While single bloom types of flower arrangements are always graceful, try out this method and add your own style. You can make several single bloom flower arrangements positioned in several parts of your home - from tiny blooms inside wine glasses or tea cups to large blooms in bowls. The single rose in a bud vase can look even more unique in a room full of diverse arrangements.

Tip #4: Use the Correct Container

If you must follow one rule, this is it: use containers that match the type of flower arrangements. The good news is that most flower arrangements are unique. So match them up with unique containers as well.

You do not have to arrange your flowers in a typical vase. If you feel that your blooms look prettier in a different container, then do so. You can even use bottles, smaller vases, tea cups, wine glasses - the works. And the overall effect would be a refreshing look to your flower arrangements.
