SUPPLIES & TOOLS:
- Assorted floral picks
- Assorted colors of thick ribbon
- Wire cutting tool
- Floral tape or floral wire
- Scissors
- Use wire cutting tool to cut apart floral picks.
- Separate floral stems into color themes to coordinate with the color of the ribbon.
- Starting with greenery, begin building the bouquet in your hand and create a frame for the shape. Add larger flowers next, making sure to disperse the color and texture throughout. Add additional fillers and small flowers to fill any gaps that appear.
- To finish off the bouquet, add several stems of additional greenery as a collar around the base of the bouquet. This helps to hide any imperfections in the stems and fills out the base of the bouquet.
- Wrap floral tape or floral wire around the base of the bouquet to secure the stems in place. Use wire cutters to trim the ends of the stems.
- Use scissors to cut a piece of ribbon about 36" in length. Tie the ribbon in a large bow around the base of the bouquet, making sure to hide the floral tape/wire.
