The second series of Top Tips from our own in store experts, brought to you this week by our very own Visual Merchandiser, Stavroula.
Before making the perfect flower arrangement we need to consider, size, style and colour:
Where will the bouquet be placed; on the dining room table, hall entrance, bedside table, or console? This will decide the size of the arrangement and the size of the vase.
What style of bouquet would you prefer? contemporary classic, bold, or natural? Is there a colour scheme? Are you looking to brighten or tone down the room?
Step 1: Choose your vase
Step 2: Choose your flowers
Start by putting some flowers in the case and creating the outside shape of your bouquet to make a frame. continue adding flowers to fill the gaps, bend or cut the flowers to get the right heigh. Put pebbles or sand in the vase to make the arrangement look ever more alive.
Get creative, take a step back, see what you can add, and have fun with the large selection in store.
The flowers are easy to maintain give them a light sprinkle under the shower to remove any dust and dry off your hair dryer.
Take some time to have a go yourself.
