Make your own Christmas flower arrangement
Why settle for a store-bought floral centerpiece when you can make it yourself, with a few florist tips and tricks.
The material
En premier lieu, vous devrez passer chez le fleuriste pour vous procurer une coupelle de verre, trois amaryllis blanches, 8 roses ivoire, du lierre vert frais et du lierre artificiel, des branchettes, et 1 pain de mousse verte. Il vous faudra également un sécateur, un ciseau et un récipient avec de l’eau. À la boutique d’artisanat, vous trouverez de la peinture (bombe) de couleur dorée ainsi que des petites clochettes de Christmas, si vous désirez en ajouter pour décorer.
The stages of production:
- First, soak the green moss in water to let all the air escape. Then cut the bread in two lengthwise. Fill the cup with the moss until it is full.
- Cut 15 centimeters of fresh ivy and stick it in the middle of the moss. Wrap the ivy around the cup. Take an equal length of artificial ivy and spray paint it with gold paint. Let it dry and set aside.
- Cut the first amaryllis with scissors and stick this flower under one of the ivy stems; then the other two flowers (amaryllis) through the ivy. Leave enough space between the flowers to distribute them in three-thirds of the cup.
- Next to each amaryllis, slide two ivory roses diagonally and replace some ivy around them. Repeat for the other roses with the amaryllis.
- Arrange the twigs (small bundles) under the ivy so that the green moss is no longer visible. If you wish, add a few ribbons, mini baubles, or other Christmas decorations here and there.
