Client comes first….
A client reached out to me for their annual holiday event. They were in need of a floral display for an estate table. Their requests were candlelight and a spin on traditional holiday decor. Of course, the answer is always “yes, I would love to design for your event”.
Understanding client needs/vision and incorporating them into the design has always been a top priority for me. Without our clients we can not do what we love to do!
Inspired by your surroundings….
As I looked around the design studio, I was inspired by a structure I had designed previously. I had created this base for a YouTube video we created earlier this year. I knew it would be perfect for the event.
I started by weaving chicken wire through the pipes at the base. This would ensure the arrangement would be secure.
Enhance your elements….
The next step was to enhance my foliage. I utilized Design Master Copper to color enhance the ruscus and eucalyptus. I sprayed a light mist of copper onto the foliage allowing some of the natural color to shine through. I chose copper as it would coordinate with the metallic color already on the structure and be enhanced by the candlelight.
Adding the star elements….
I then inserted the foliage, roses, astrantia and Knud Nielsen pinecones to the structure. I utilized small water tubes for the roses. The chicken wire held everything in place perfectly.
Soften the design….
As I looked at the design, I felt a softer texture needed to be added. I found the perfect solution… Oasis Wired Wool! I cut 10” strands of the wool and inserted it into the design with a bit of Oasis Floral Adhesive. By cutting the wool I had more control over the desired placements.
Time to celebrate….
Once completed it was the perfect showstopper to the event. My client loved it as much as I did. I had created an unique design utilizing a custom base that the guests admired throughout their event.
