Creating a Beautiful Standing Spray Flower Arrangement
How to Prepare a Standing Spray Flower Arrangement
After the floral foam has been soaked in water and secured in a foam cage, the next step in the preparation of a standing spray is crucial to achieving a beautiful and balanced arrangement.
Once you have the wet floral foam ready, it's time to start arranging your flowers. Here are the steps you should follow:
- Insert Focal Flowers: Begin by inserting the focal flowers into the foam. These flowers are usually the largest or most eye-catching blooms in your arrangement. They will serve as the main focal point.
- Add Smaller Flowers: After you've placed the focal flowers, add smaller flowers around them. These flowers will complement the focal blooms and add depth to your arrangement.
- Include Greenery: Lastly, don't forget to incorporate greenery into your standing spray. Greenery helps fill in any gaps and adds a natural, organic touch to the arrangement.
Remember to cut all the flower stems at an angle before inserting them into the floral foam. This will help the flowers take up water more easily and stay fresh longer.
How should you begin the arrangement of a standing spray after the floral foam has been soaked and secured in a foam cage? After securing the wet floral foam in its cage, you should begin the arrangement of your standing spray by first inserting the focal flowers, then adding smaller flowers and greenery.
