Lets look again at the Modern Mass Flower Arrangement-FLORISTRY/FLOWER ARRANGING-Italian Mass Design
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 сер 2024
- A few weeks ago I looked at the Italian or Modern Mass, a design inspired by Italian design and architecture. Mass designs require large, bold, round flowers instead of line, filler and transitional materials.
This arrangement follows patterns and structure to make a formal design with the container being an integral part of the flower design. Inspiration should be taken from Italian culture and design and this type of design is ideal for interpretative design or grand statement pieces.
If you are new to arranging, take a few minutes to view my Back to Basics series which will explain how to create lots of basic geometric shapes

Thanks again for watching and your lovely comments
I am watching from sabah Malaysia very beautifful flower arrangment.
Thanks and welcome
Hello from Portland Oregon, USA. Love your designs!
Thank you! Cheers!
Excellent presentation! Very simple and easy to understand with explanation and placement of each principle and elements of the design. Keep Teaching you're a pro!
Glad it was helpful! Thank you so much, I needed that encouragement today
Don't get discourage at times, if people tend not to be following tutorial frequently. It's just so many out there and like me who is a novice, would be perusing up and down hopefully looking for the most practical and easy explanation of tutorials fundamentals for beginners. But like me being curious we tend to go back to who we can understand. And I find that you're in leagues with honorable mention group of good teaching tutorials who makes this craft for beginners simple and straight forward with lots of explanation. Great Job!
Thanks for your lovely comment and I'm glad you enjoy my tutorials. How would you describer yourself, because you are my ideal viewer?
@@sharondower Alrighty! Pretty simple but very curious. My eyes tend to get the better part of me! Just acquired a very keen interest in flowers and foliage's of lately since I turned 50. But do enjoy pretty tea parties! I'm from the Bahamas we have a lot of sun and humidity up here. My Mom is the green thumb. Didn't know I had it in me was never really interested in floristry. Just getting started so following youtubers to get a little more knowledge and basics!
So so gorgeous 🤓👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you

Beautiful and original _ I am in NYC preparing to tutor a class for a Garden Club Show this July
Ohhh how exciting. What are you making? I would love to see what you are creating. It sound amazing, what an honour.
Ohhhhh!!! This is beautiful. Will have to try this design. Sharon I would love to see you doing something different with grocery shop bought flowers please x
Its on my list!! Its just hard at the moment to get to a supermarket to buy flowers. As soon as I have a lull in wedding work, I'll look at creating some flower arrangement with supermarket flowers.
Этто оочень дорогой букет. Конечно красиво и изящно !!!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
It definitely a grand design.
This is another beauty Mrs D, to me it doesn't matter what kind of flowers u use, because I have no doubt it will be beautiful thank u
Thanks again
I just started following this amazing lady. I love the way you teach and you’re extremely knowledgeable. Thank you! From Las Vegas
Well thank you very much. I spend my honeymoon in Las Vegas, would love to come back one day 🤩
What a beautiful design! So prominent and gentle at the same time! Thank you.
What a great description. Gentle and prominent. I love that!
Lovely soft coloured arrangements , my favourites too
Thank you so much 😊
I LOVE this design. I definitely will give it a try! Thank you for the inspiration Sharon!
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching
Love seeing you special arrangements, florist flowers always widen our creative thoughts, supermarket flower designs are good also
Supermarket flowers coming next so you get a but of variety
I have enjoyed this design.I would like to be able to use supermarket flowers to reduce the cost.
There is one design coming on Sunday using a supermarket bunch of flowers
So lovely Sharon! So relaxing watching you design too. Further videos of supermarket flowers would be lovely. Itching to have a designing spree! Thank you!
Great idea! Enjoy the arranging
😍 stunning! The roses are beautiful.
They are! I love them too
Another lovely arrangement love the colours
Thanks again for watching
Love getting inspiration from your designs. Thankyou
You are so welcome! Thank you for watching
So beautiful and adorable
Thanks for watching
I love your inspiring designs. We are done with spring flowers from the garden and summer flowers are a few months away here in Maryland. However it is always Trader Joes flower season, a grocery with amazing variety of flowers. So more inspiration please. thank you, I am learning so much.
We don't have anything like Trader Joes here in the UK. I'm always very jealous of all the flowers you can buy there!
This is beautiful! I would like to see more of the grocery store arrangements. I like flowers on my kitchen island, but it’s an older home with 8ft ceilings so lower arrangements look better. I watch all your videos and really enjoy them, and learn a lot. I’m watching from Minnesota, USA.
Thanks for watching and I'll certainly try to arrange more supermarket flowers. What types of flowers are available in Minnesota at the moment.
@@sharondower We have a lot of tulips and daffodils, but a lot of the flowers are from different areas. In about 3 weeks we’ll have peonies (I have five bushes). We’ll have lilacs, hen almost everything for the summer. I also have three really nice hydrangea bushes. I just started arranging, and I love it.
Very nice & different. I don't mind what flowers you use Sharon. I like to learn about whatever designs you do, all mixed up. Here in Australia, we have lots of "mums" blossoming, roses, lillies, carnations, protea etc. Thanks for your tutorials once again.
Thanks again for watching.
Gorgeous 😍
Thank you
This is beautiful 😍
Thank you

Thanks for watching
Love, love it! Sharon, can you put a link for the exact pair of scissors you are using? They seem to cut so well.
If you look in the description box below the video, you'll see I've linked everything I use ⬇
Sharon, seeing that it is wedding season...would you maybe show us how to make a bridal bouquet?
I'm a little wary about creating bridal designs as its a florist job and I always think its best left to the professionals! But I am in the process of writing new online courses which will involve wedding floristry - it just takes a long time to film and edit and run a wedding florists!!
@@sharondower Oh okay...I didn't realise that. Thanks again for all your incredible videos. I learn something new every time💐🌻🌷
@@natalierobus3883 its a really difficult one because so much is involved in a wedding bouquet and I worry that someone will watch one video then think they can make wedding bouquets, then ruin someones day when it all goes wrong!! Does that make sense?
@@sharondower yes, I absolutely understand. I remember when my sister got married, many years ago, her bouquet did not even last until the reception dinner. My mom was very disappointed because it had been ordered from a florist.
Absolutely Beautiful, all of your designs are amazing. I was asked to make 2 cemetery arrangements for mother's day but I would have to use faux flowers.Do you have any suggestions or tips? The colors are different shades of purple. Thanks
Hi there, I would suggest using dry foam to arrange your flowers into, not sure if you already know that. Keep the flowers low and narrow, so the wind doesn't blow it over. Does that help at all?
Hi Sharon, thank you for your lovely videos. Any tips on how to work with lillies. Is it preferable to buy already opened for church arrangements or is it ok to have buds in the arrangement?
Timing is so tricky: because if I buy on Friday (only buds no open flowers..) most are still closed on Sunday
Thank you ☺
Lilies need lots of light to get them to open. I think it a very subjective topic. If I was arranging them for a wedding then I would want them open for the day, but for a church I wouldn't worry too much as I would think they would last a lot longer if they were closed and be more value for money for the church. If you need them to open in time for Sunday, then you need to buy them earlier in the week.
I usually get supermarket flowers, and foliage is sometime a problem. Something using wire would be lovely. Do we still have to keep to 3, 5 ,7 or 9 flowers ? Thank you very much .x
Odd numbers usually work well but its not essential if you are learning. Modern floristry follows a different set of rules which follows the Fibonacci sequence of numbers, so 1's and 2's can be used too. If you're limited to supermarket flowers, just use the ones that you have in the package.
Thank you Sharon for this arrangement. We are having Wesak celebration on 15May2022, can you please give us some idea on a flower arrangement to honor the Buddha. The predominant color used is generally yellow. Thank you.
I've got a yellow orchid design coming this week - possibly a bit too modern for you to copy. Not sure if I'll have time to film and edit one before 15th May
Hi can u make an all around arrangement with daisies
Do you mean garden daisies, daisy chrysanthemums, dog daisies? There are a few different types
Does the pink asparagus grow pink or is it sprayed?
The pink Asparagus is dyed at the suppliers/growers and come in a huge range of colours .
@@sharondower Thank you.
Hi Sharon,
Please advice me .. what combination of flowers can I use for welcoming program during winter. I’m assigned to do arrangements in a meditation 🧘♀️ Center.
Afternoon, I think you have a few options, colours that match the surroundings, interior, soft furnishings etc or cool, relaxing colours like white, blue and green or really vibrant colours like red, orange and yellow. Go for paler colours if you want to create serenity or bright clashing colour to create motivation and energy.
@@sharondower That’s precious. Thanks Sharon 🤗
