How to make a flower arrangement - FLORISTRY/FLOWER ARRANGING - HOW TO ARRANGE FLOWERS IN FOAM

If you've been following my Back to Basics series and then the Back to Basics Revisited then this arrangement is an ideal step up from those basics skills taught in the first two series.
I've introduced some large lily heads to complement the large heavy container. With the addition of the striking orange roses, I've created a fabulous traditional triangle arrangement. When you are confident enough you can upscale this design to make a large arrangement for a church, entrance way or open space.
If you are new to arranging, take a few minutes to view my Back to Basics series which will explain how to create a very all round arrangement using a minimal amount of flowers.

Over 3000 subscribers, yess! Congratulations Sharon!! And I was here with the first ones! 😄 Arrangement is beautiful, such a good choice to cheer us up in this unfriendly windy weather 🤗 I made my own valentine day's arrangement.. I was thinking about everything I learned from you here, while I was working on it.. Maybe 1,5 hours 🤔😄... I enjoyed it though, that's more important for me than speed. Greetings, Judit 🙋😊

[@sharondower]

Thank you Judit and I'm so grateful that you have stuck with me since the beginning - thank you soooo much. P.S love the emojis

Karen that's beautiful - as usual. However, I have lots of different roses growing and being summer here in Australia I am looking forward to my Christmas lillies. Do you have a design that you have done in the past where you have used a mixture of rose colours? Many thanks once again.

[@sharondower]

Hi Robing - no I don't! The nearest type of video would be one of the designs in natural mechanics. I'll had it to my list! Thanks again

I am back for another comment.. I have been standing in the shop and it was so hard to see what goes together which flowers and ingredients match.. Maybe you could talk about how you choose the ingredients, what you are looking for. 😊 Hopefully others are interested in that too! Greetings, Judit

[@sharondower]

Fabulous idea! Its a plan.
