White Floral Bouquet

SUPPLIES & TOOLS:

• Floral tape
• Wire cutters or floral snips
• Glue gun/glue sticks
• 20" white peony bush
• 2 white mixed peony hydrangea bush
• 16" eucalyptus bush
• 2 16" baby's breath eucalyptus bush
• Ribbon 1 1/2"x 15' wired-edge burlap

DIRECTIONS:

1. Separate and spread out the white peony bush. Do not remove or cut the floral from the main stem.
2. Repeat the same process with the mixed peony hydrangea bush. Tape this bunch to the white Peony bush. Work the floral around to desired shape. Remove any floral that is not desired or not the right length. Set aside to use to fill in.
3. Add one bush of the eucalyptus greens. Work the eucalyptus in throughout the bouquet and in between the flowers. Tape together.
4. Add the entire bush of the baby's breath eucalyptus bush. Work it into the bouquet and through the floral. Tape together.
5. Fill in the bouquet with any extra greens or floral.
6. Wrap tape around one last time and add a dab of hot glue to the end to secure it and hold it tight.
7. Wrap a piece of burlap ribbon around the area that the tape is on. Hot glue the piece of ribbon to the bouquet.
8. Cut a longer length of ribbon. Wrap it around the existing piece of burlap and tie a knot. Add some hot glue underneath the burlap and underneath the knot to secure it in place.

JOANN Hacks:

• Be sure to tape in the same location on the stems every time you add another piece to the bouquet.
• If some greenery or floral stems are too short, tape them to a longer stem from previously cut floral or unused pieces.
