Flowers in a champagne glass Mom called to order this flower arrangement for her daughter at UF. She asked me, "Do you have a champagne glass?". I didn't have one, but she ordered in advance, so I had enough time to get it. I still have a few left. Her daughter was admitted to University of Florida, being "GATOR" - Yeah!!!.
Materials: 3 pink roses, 2 white roses, 2 purple/white orchids, 2 iris, eucalyptus stems and bear grasses
Tips for arrangement:
I used pink floral form at the top of the glass and the stems are inserted into the form. You can't use too many stems for this type of glass vase, just use the minimum number of stems. Then you have to be careful when you insert each stem through the form. Because you don't want to make a lot of holes in the floral form by re-inserting them repeatedly.
So let me tell you the tips!!! Just clear the unnecessary leaf or greens from the flowers. Then before arraging the flowers into the form, hold the flowers in the left hand(for right-handed person) just as arranged in the vase. So you have to get an idea how it is going to look. Obviously, you are now looking at the picture here, and you can do it much easier. Howver, still, you had better try to hold the flowers on hand in an arranged format before trying to insert them into the floral form.
Once you get the line and style of the arrangement, then start to get each stem inserted. 2.5-3 cm of the stem would be enough to keep the shape for flowers used here. So the below the form, you don't really see any stems.
Challenges:
At the bottom of the glass, you can add some pretty marbles or stones. or you can put some floral sands, too. For a special Cocktail party or celebration, try this arrangement in your table.
This arrangement was done January 2007 for one of Lady Gators. Of course by hannah ^-^
