Choose a Focal Flower – Start by selecting one dominant flower, like a rose or peony, to serve as the centerpiece of your arrangement
Mix Shapes and Sizes – To create a dynamic, visually interesting arrangement, combine flowers of different sizes and shapes
Use Seasonal Flowers – Seasonal flowers are not only fresher but more cost-effective and environmentally friendly.
Balance Colors – Pair complementary colors for a harmonious look, or use contrasting colors to create a bold statement.
Trim Stems at an Angle – Cutting stems at a 45-degree angle allows for better water absorption. This simple technique helps your flowers stay hydrated and last longer in a vase.
Change Water Regularly – Fresh water is essential for keeping your flowers alive. Change the water every day or two, and add flower food to extend their freshness.
Add Filler Greens – Foliage like baby’s breath, eucalyptus, or ferns fills in gaps between flowers, adds texture, and helps frame the arrangement, giving it a more polished, professional look.
Use round flowers like roses alongside spiked blooms like snapdragons or irises for contrast.
