Directions
FOR FLORAL ONLY ARRANGEMENT
Stem Your Flowers (If using Wood Flowers): Stem your wood flowers using 18 gauge floral wire and a dab of hot glue.
Prepare the Floral Foam: For the floral-only option, start by choosing either a 2" floral foam disc or half of a mug plug. Cover it with Spanish moss and secure the moss with greening pins. This serves as the base for your flowers.
Design Your Floral Arrangement: Add your preferred silk, wood, or fresh flowers to the moss-covered foam. Avoid creating straight rows of the same color to achieve a balanced and visually appealing arrangement.
FOR VOTIVE / CANDLE ARRANGEMENT
Choose Your Eucalyptus Stems: For the arrangement that combines florals with a votive candle, select two eucalyptus stems. Position them outward from the center of the geometric votive holder and bind them together in the center with 24-26 gauge floral wire. This will create a natural frame for your arrangement.
Add Flowers and Accents: Now, it's time to infuse your arrangement with your chosen silk, wood, or fresh flowers. Place these in the center and add any desired accents to complete the look.
Create Your Tablescape: Accent the table with smaller elements such as votives, or single flower table scatter. Or pair together two or more arrangements.
