This was very helpful and lovely. I love your room decorations!!
Love it !!! Thank you for all ur tricks 💕
Thank you so much for this!!!! I've been trying to find someone to show me what to do, so I can finish my daughter's wedding arch. You are a blessing!!!!
Glad it was helpful! Congratulations on the upcoming wedding for your daughter!
LOVE IT! I’ve been overthinking this for a while but it’s so simple! Thank you
I have been there on so many different projects. Have fun diving in and enjoy the process!
This is gorgeous. I use a mirror to do my UA-cam tarot readings and I am planning on making this for the corner of my mirror for my Valentine’s Day Readings. Thank you for this beautiful tutorial.
That's a great idea! It's going to be gorgeous!
Great video. I am breathing a sigh of relief and feeling more confident about my upcoming floral project. Thank you!
You can do it!
I'm trying to start a silk flower business, but I figured buying wholesale is the only way to make a profit. I figured people wouldn't want to buy flowers from hobby lobby after the markup, but seems you are succeeding with that approach? I really like floral stuff I've seen in hobby stores and would love to incorporate them as well. Thank you for posting this video 💜
Thank you for this tutorial!! I'm getting married in May and I've been doing all the flowers myself. I didn't know where to start with making the swags for my arch - how to secure the flowers together or how it would attach to the arch, so this is such a HUGE help!
Beautiful!
Love it!!
I just gotta say, Im absolutely in *LOVE* with your room! 😍💗💕
Thanks so much! A studio updated tour is coming soon!
Thank you! Just what I needed for my upcoming wedding!

Oh my goodness that is so pretty!! Thanks for all the tips and tricks !! You make it look easy. :)
It's much easier than I thought it would be ♥️
Oh my gosh, your tutorial was wonderful! Worthy of watching over and over. I admit when your video is sped up, I slowed it down in order to be able to watch more closely. Thank you so much. New subbie. I am already getting familiar with your website. :)
Amazing video 👏🏾
Beautiful arch....thanks so much for a great tutorial
Thank you so much Janet ❤️
Wow! I started making last year and that included corner arches. I’m following ur way and I’m so excited! I’ve been cutting a square metal form diagonal, zip tying pine garland then using that as a base. Ur way is awesome! Just glad I have some ficus because everyone is out of stock (General Wholesale, craft outlet). Ugh. Thank you!!
We now carry ficus in the shop as well if you ever need some
Your arch turned out amazing! Gorgeous! Absolutes the info I need to help my gf with her daughter’s wedding florals! Thank you so much for sharing your talents!
Yay I am so glad it is helpful, happy crafting!
Beautiful!!!💕
Thank you! 😊
I have watched this over and over and over again. My first try and you really helped 😊. Thank you so much, I’m making 1 large and 1 smaller for my daughters wedding, so very important to get it right. I made the smaller and I think it came out beautiful thanks to you. Your the best ❤
I am so glad to hear that!
Your videos have inspired me to tackle doing my own sola flowers for my wedding even though I am absolutely not crafty. Wish me luck! Haha!
You can do it! That is so exciting 😍
This has been soooo helpful! I’m doing my first wedding arch in a few weeks and I was stuck on how to even begin. Thanks so much for all the tips. You’ve given me direction and inspiration!
oh yay! I am so glad you found it helpful!!!
Love it
Stunning
I love this! Can you share a list of the different greenery you used?
So pretty!
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful!! Thank you for sharing. I would love to see a video of a 90 degree arch that has little greenery and more solid wood flowers. My wedding is in November and I’m going to try to do an all Sola Flower Wedding. :)
Thank You… I’m doing my sons wedding & I have to do a arch on the beach…. I’ve done my daughters we’d bouquets, but never this.. I have been so nervous… And this you did is absolutely beautiful
You are gonna do great!
How did it go? I'm helping the bride do hers.
Wow this is such a good tutorial I am doing flowers for an outdoor pergola for a wedding and has given me such good ideas
Glad it was helpful!
Gorgeous
@OhYoureLovely you are so talented! At 17:48, on the shelf over your coffee bar, you have a picture frame "holding" a bouquet of flowers. Can you *please* make a tutorial for this?! I looked through your videos but didn't see one. I love it so much! New subscriber.
Hey! I did this project on a facebook live I will like that one as well as a slightly different version as well I created later on. fb.watch/boJcPPgj3Q/ and fb.watch/boJe6kn7Lu/
@@OhYoureLovely perfect! Thank you so much for the quick response! 💐
Am in ❤ with this..beautiful
So glad you liked the tutorial
Thankyou so much for this! So helpful
You're so welcome!
Very nice and lovely!! What if your wood is larger than tie strap?? TY
Love your channel will use as a school and church project
I am so glad it will help out!
Hi I just love your videos, I have watched quite a few as I prepare for my sisters upcoming wedding bouquets/decor. I wanted your opinion as to if wood flowers and artificial flowers blend well together in a bouquet? Thanks in advance for your time.
Wow this is Beautiful!
Do you think this could work on my front door with scotch guard spray to protect from the weather?
Awesome video, thanks for sharing! I saw these on Etsy and the seller wanted $195 each. So of course, I come to UA-cam and make it myself.
This is beautiful! I definitely had a fear about making arch decor too! I just made mine a few days ago for my wedding this year although now I think I need to add a few more elements 😂 thanks as always for your tutorials!!
Glad I wasnt the only one to fear the arch!
Pretty
Thanks so much for the tutorial! Would you have advice on getting it onto a stone doorway (front of a church) thanks x
I dont have a good suggestion I would probably chat with the church first they may have suggestions or things that they allow and dont allow
Loved your tutorial! Can you tell me how many stems of ficus that you used?
Super Hermoso
Love the arrangement! Would you recommend building the arrangement before attaching it to the arch or after?
You can absolutely build the arrangement before attaching it to the arch
So beautiful
Thank you so much
Wondering how an arrangement for sweetheart table on the hanging down left corner
I love this so much! Thank you! What would I do if I wanted to make a larger arch?
I would continue to add floral foam bricks one brick though will hold a ton of stems just to keep that in mind.
This is gorgeous. I just found you today & have Subscribed & requested to Join your FB Group. I love your work!
Thanks so much 😊
This was SO helpful! Can you help give me an idea of what the greenery picks are called!? And maybe some ideas of names of more wild flower greenery to use for my arch? I am so excited to try this!
Hi! I love this arch decor. What would you estimate as the total cost for this?
Thank You!
Your swag is beautiful. Good job! Would you please provide a materials list in regard to quantities needed for each item? Thank you.
Hi just wondering I’m doing my daughters flowers for her wedding do you always use that foam or should I use Styrofoam? I’m creating an arch outside on the gazebo.
i love eeeeetttt
Fantastic tutorial! Doing one for my brothers wedding and this was so helpful! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this!! I'm so excited to try to make one!
Have fun!
Love the tutorial! Was wondering, why would we need the floral mesh for the brick/block? Thanks!
It makes it a bit easier to hang depending on how you are using the arch piece
Thanks! I was going to ask the same question.
What happens if I use just the foam block with out the wire cage around it? Is that ok?
I love this! What size floral foam block did you use?
7.8" x 3.4" x 2.6"
🤗🤗 from Indonesia
Could u tell me if I was making it twice as big would I use 2 blocks of oasis
yeah you can add as many floral bricks as you need. We had a customer make a six foot arch and I believe she used 4 or 6 bricks total
How much greenery did you use? I want to make a couple for my wedding
Love the tutorial! Background music not so much😬
Hi for a first timer, using artificial flowers and leaves, is Pool noodle better or dry florist foam for the arch?
It would be a personal preference as well as how it is being installed. I have used both I still like the florist foam a bit more but the cost of a pool noodle cant be beat!
What is the purpose of wrapping the foam with the floral wire? If I didn’t use floral wire could this still turn out or would it fall apart?
It gives it a bit more stability and an easier way to hang the finished piece
What is the purpose of the chicken wire? Can you not do without it?
It helps with the hanging of the piece but you I am sure could hang it another way and not use the chicken wire
Great
Hi what greenery will go with carnations in st Patrick day centerpieces
Oh my god you are such a clever , talented lady . I came across your video whilst researching for a BIG project I’m about to undertake on my shop front !!! I’m a nail technician so I’m creative ... by mechanically... you’re talking to a girl who can just about change a light bulb
So if I may please message you for some advice ? I just like to know the best secure way to attach this to a metal shop frame ... just a nail ?
I’ve had a professional qoute me nearly 2k... but I have all the materials and I’m happy and would be proud , to put this together myself . I’m just very anxious about attaching to the shop front
Please tell me it’s as easy as it looks x
I want to do something like this for my macrame backdrops but I don’t know How do you attach it? How do you attach to the wall?
I did a faux macrame piece this might inspire you to how I added the flowers...... ua-cam.com/video/CkYSB6g6q0c/v-deo.html
Where could I get the floral wire? And thanks so much for the helpful video!
We do carry a few options on our website www.ohyourelovely.com
Would you glue the stems on the foam if it’s going to be used for an outdoor wedding?
I typically dont but you can if you prefer.
How many flowers did you use?
Hi, love your products but I live on South Coast of England. do you sell abroad?
Very nice! I didn’t quite decipher if all the greens and flowers used were artificial... or whether some were live and others artificial (check through the comments and it doesn’t look like anyone else has asked yet)
These were all artificial greenery and the flowers are wood flowers
Why is it important to use mesh or chicken wire?
How would you make a dusty rose color for your sola wood flowers I’ve been having the hardest time 😫😫
Are you using dye or paint ? I found some cheap paint from Walmart and Joanne fabrics and just diluted with some water and glycerin . They had a wide variety of paint .. I didn’t find one called dusty rose but I think achieved a similar color mixing nude pinks /mauve together
Your videos are so detailed, I love it! Do you have a rough idea how to calculate how much greenery and flowers you will need for DIY arrangements? Trying to work out cost :)
I'm doing all the flowers for my son's wedding. I've been watching multiple videos and I am just questioning what is the purpose of the floral wire? I have seen many videos where people don't use floral wire. There are many people who don't use it. So I'm just questioning why use it at all.
How much did it cost
Do you have any tutorial doing fresh floral arch wedding?
We only focus on wood flowers so I dont have any fresh flower tutorials besides one where I mixed fresh greenery with the wood flowers in a bouquet.
🌺🌱🌸B E A U T I F U L🌺🌱🌸
I’m having a hard time finding decent Ruscus that’s not expensive
What's the base greenery called again please??
at least at hobby lobby they call it ficus ❤
Can't you use greenery from yard?
Probably I would suggest using a fresh floral foam block instead of the dry floral foam I used
Hi, I went on the website. Can you please list the names of everything you used for the greenery?
Hi Jane because this tutorial is a year old much of the filler I used is no longer available on our site. The main filler we used to fill in the space is ficus (which is still available on our site). there is also a few different forms of lambs ear, eucalyptus and a few colored fillers that worked with the color story we were using.
How much would you charge to make that floral design using lavender flowers for arch.
Where can the chicken wire be purchased.
The chicken wire you can find at any home improvement or hardware store
Is there a way to get an already made one?
We dont ever want to be in competition with many of our customers that are wood flower artists so we dont offer finished pieces
About how many ficus branches did you use?
I think it was 4 or 5 full stems cut up to make the base of the piece.
