3 step everlasting vintage floral bouquet.
- Go faux
Don’t be afraid to choose artificial flowers for your arrangement. Modern faux flowers are made from superior materials compared to previous versions and are available in on-trend styles and colours. Faux flowers also require very little care apart from an occasional light dusting, making them a convenient choice for busy people and lock up and go homes.
- Select your stems
For a whimsical vintage feel, select stems with natural, subdued tones. Think dusty pinks, creams and earthy browns. It is also important to include a variety of textures in the bunch to create variation in height, create movement and offer a relaxed ‘unarranged’ appearance.
- Arrange
The vase you place the stems in will complete the vintage feel of the arrangement. Cut glass vases give an elegant antique feel while a tapered shape lends a retro flair. Colour glass or solid metallics also work beautifully with a vintage arrangement. When it comes to giving the faux stems a natural feel, play with height. Don’t be afraid to cut the stems to suit the look you want just as you would with real stems. You want a loose arrangement with movement so play around with height and length when placing them in the vase.
EXTRA TIPS:
- Give your arrangement an alive and natural look by adding water to the vase
- Not sure where to start? Take a shortcut with a premade bouquet and add in additional stems to create the look you want.
