Something Old, New, Borrowed & Blue

Create something beautiful…

Think about what you have on a shelf that needs some attention and be the creative floral artist you have always been. Imagine what an item can become and make it happen. Yes, you should always think out of the box when designing, creating and living.

Something borrowed…

Utilizing your rental pieces in a unique way to create a beautiful display is a key to success. Reinventing these amazing cake stands into a design will enhance any dessert table.

Something old….

The structure was constructed using a plastic 6” flowerpot separating the two tiers of the cake stands. I then wrapped poultry wire around the pot and a cluster of it on the top tier. Make sure to fold in your end pieces so it does not damage the mirror. The wire is used to hold the floral in place for the design.

Something new….

Such a beautiful assortment of garden blooms:

• Green Trick

• Hydrangea

• Stock

• Wax Flower

• Monte Casino

• Astrantia

Something blue….

The design started with blue hydrangea and green trick as the base floral. These blooms would cover the gap between the levels and poultry wire. Water tubes were utilized to keep the hydrangea fresh.

Placing the blooms….

I placed the remaining blooms into the design. The poultry wire, hydrangea and green trick held the stems in place. Utilize water tubes on your more delicate blooms.

Finish the look….

To finish the display, place the wedding cake upon an additional cake stand. The design will be complete by adding coordinating blooms for the cake décor. A perfect display any couple would love to have on their wedding day.

Old, New, Borrowed & Blue

Such a beautiful way to celebrate love while utilizing what you have in stock!
