A Patchwork Pomander
What You Will Need:
• 1 Sphere of Dried Foam 9cm or 12cm. (I used size 12cm)
• Thick Rope/Cord
• Satin Ribbon
• Reindeer Moss
• Small Dried and Fabric Flowers
• Selection of Wires
• Stem Tape
Step 1:
The handle and tails are each firmly mounted on a stub wire (0.71mm) and inserted into the dry foam sphere. Roses, small fabric flowers and ribbons are mounted on fine stub wires (0.28mm).
Step 2:
Flowers and ribbons are added in a circular outline.
IMPORTANT - The materials must be inserted closely against the base of the sphere - if they are too far away the design may look heavy and out of proportion with the handle.

The bride’s headdress completes her whole outfit, and should therefore compliment the bouquet. Many brides are concerned that the flowers will not last, and they therefore steer away from fresh flowers; this is such a shame, as fresh flowers always look amazing, and if suitable flowers are chosen they will have the advantage of matching the bouquet and will definitely look much lovelier than ar...

An All-Round Arrangement
Переглядів 35Рік тому
An All-Round Arrangement, hence the name suggests, is one that can be viewed from any angle. It is sometimes more complicated to assemble an All-Round Arrangement than a Front Facing design, but the end result is a useful design for the centre of a table, or even of a room. This type of arrangement would be suitable for placement at the centre of a coffee or buffet table. On a coffee table, it ...
