Table or surface protection (to catch any spills or mess)

Wood Flowers - Pine and Petal Weddings Colors used: Deep Purple, Teal, Lilac, Lavender Haze, Mint Sizes: 1” Tiny and 2-2.5” Small

Directions
Prepare the Base: Begin by securing a 4" floral foam block on your wood base (secure using ClearStick Foam Glue) if desired. Cover the foam block with Spanish moss, which not only hides the foam but also adds a natural texture to the arrangement.
Stem Your Flowers (If using Wood Flowers): Stem your wood flowers using 18 gauge floral wire and a dab of hot glue.
Shape with Greenery: To craft the whimsical shape, start by adding spiral eucalyptus (or your chosen greenery) to the hoop. Use the 24-26 gauge floral wire to secure the greenery as you go along. Create a circular cascade of greenery that flows gracefully around the hoop but leave a gap at the top if you wish. Be sure to secure it at key points to maintain the desired shape.
Add a Floral Symphony: Now comes the time to weave a floral tapestry into your hoop. Whether you opt for silk, wood, or fresh blooms, let your imagination run wild. Avoid grouping flowers of the same color in rows; instead, distribute them evenly to create a harmonious, whimsical effect.
Embrace the Whimsy: Don't shy away from adding charming accents to your arrangement. Thistle, pearls, feathers, or any other whimsical elements can be introduced to enhance the enchantment. Feel free to let your creativity shine through by adding elements that resonate with your wedding theme.
Create Your Tablescape: Add elements such as a mirror or wood slice under your hoop. Accent the table with smaller elements such as votives, seashells or driftwood.
