I love-love doing faux flowers! In clear vases I use new aquarium gravel or stones if I need weight. Usually need weight for a busy counter like mine at work. You gave away my secret of using old dried out foam! I have a open container in my hot garage where water evaporates from old wet foam.

😊 it’s good to be economic + waste not, want not as they say. And yes, a bit of weight in the container really helps, especially if the design is in a busy area.

I admit to having shied away from faux flowers in the last 10 years or so, but only recently bought two stems to place in a tall slender vase for a bureau in my bedroom. THIS arrangement, John, is exquisite, and I might have been equally satisfied with the curly willow and the blossom branches Just beautiful! Of course, I'm envious of that vase - another from your terrific collection. As ever, thank you for the inspiration and for the opportunity to watch you in action. What a joy!

Gorgeous, John! And I totally agree that the faux flowers are much nicer now then a few years ago. There are certainly advantages to using them, as you mentioned. I actually made an artificial arrangement a few weeks ago and took a picture of it, sent it to a friend who said it looked really nice and real. And then today, I was taking a picture of one of my fresh arrangements and I had put a stem up higher, out of the water in the vase, just to snap the picture! 😆

Good job, I always enjoy watching you create. I only work with artificial flowers. No watering, no worrying about sunlight, no mess! They are more expensive to buy, but they last for years, and like you said, you can take them apart and reuse them. I have 6 wreaths for my front entrance door...all artificial. I just change them according to the season and occasion. Wish I could show you pics! =)

@@FlowerJoos thank you Sir, your positivity and kindness are very uplifting! I'm puzzled because there isn't a single silk floral business near where I live. It seems for some reason they're less popular, but perhaps I can change people's minds about it. Soon I hope to work with both silks and fresh flowers once I can save enough to invest in a cooler.

Lovely for Wedding then give away!

Really great arrangement! Agreed, faux flowers, plants, (trees!) have come such a long way the last few years. They're easy to find, reasonably priced and can last indefinitely in so many arrangements. I have a big bin of them under a bed, protected from dust. Every so often I 'rediscover' them and get an arrangement together for a table, bedroom, the piano, so easy! Curly willow is so fun too, I've had stems of that last forever as well. They've gone from fresh pieces in Spring bouquets to parts of X mas designs many years later when they've been dried and sprayed gold!

I love the green leaves you added in this piece but looking to do one that has it visually 360 from all sides

@FlowerJoos

3 жыл бұрын

That would make a great focal point - and you could change it seasonally as well, so constantly update it with the season. All round is easy to create - just keep turning it as you add in your flowers. The flower choices depend on your style and other colours, choices you have decor wise. But as a base design then just faux foliages would give a greasy display just on their own 😀🙋🏼‍♂️
