Flower Lab Craft Party

August 27, 2010 in Crafts, Floral Design | No comments

After Stephani married Kyle, she still had flowers on the brain! For her birthday, she decided to invite all her girlfriends over for a floral design how-to demonstrated by yours truly! The arrangement we made was simple and straight forward with big impact. We made long rectangular shaped arrangements in foot long metal containers with white hydrangea, white branches, white dephinium, and dendrobium orchids.

I like to use this style of arrangement in multiples for a long table. It’s especially fun to use 4 of them in a row along the escort card table.

The finished product close-up:

Each participant had a container ready for her to fill with floral foam and flowers:

The florists hard at work!

Almost done! The tall white sticks were actually from IKEA and we cut them in half. Any sort of stick or branch would work – I especially like using bleached cork screw willow.

There were too many to arrange them down the length of Stephani’s dining room table AND have room for food so we placed them outside ready to be taken home. Everyone did a wonderful job! Don’t they look professional? Beautiful and stunning!
