Wanting to add a long-lasting, natural flourish to a mantelpiece or dining table? Dried flowers could be just what you've been looking for! They also blend beautifully with dried and/or preserved elements for enhanced naturalism. Used by themselves (keep scrolling to view the dedicate FAUX FLOWER PORTFOLIO), t hey are ideal for allergy sufferers and destination weddings (you'll know what you're getting, without having to negotiate the language barrier!). Yes, there's the plastics involved, but at least they are not single-use, bringing joy and holding memories for all the years to come in their existing form, or reused almost endlessly. The latter has come a long way in recent years, so much so that well-chosen ones are virtually indistinguishable from fresh ones. I can also integrate preserved and carefully selected faux flowers and foliage, too. Whilst the majority of dried floral design centres around a neutral colour palette, I'm not averse to getting some colour in the mix, too - this could be warmer tones for Autumn, richer tones for Winter, pastel tones for Spring, or bright pops of colour of Summer! I love the subtleties of textures that you have to play with in order to create interesting arrangements that don't photograph as beige blobs - it's not rocket science, but there is an art to it! Most of what I use is grown, dried and sourced in the UK (for some extra eco-friendly Brownie Points), and Europe is generally as far-afield as the rest have travelled.
My pre-flower background in interior design has always informed my approach to venue decoration and styling using flowers - it's my USP, if you like!įor me, it began many years ago with a Pampas Grass love affair, but it's grown into a bit of an obsession. My resulting signature style is somewhat eclectic, although predominantly bohemian.

These flower heads are available in different colors, so you can easily adapt the color scheme to your own wedding palette.I became a floral designer in 2012 and my experience, predominantly in the wedding industry, has led me to refine my style, professional ethics, creative processes, and interests. I did create a silk flower page, so you can find the head sizes you need in silk. If you look closely at the photo, you'll see the upper left corner is filled in with Baby's Breath (filler) and greenery.
So how do you create this look? Let me give you an estimate of the number of flowers used to create this design: Follow the link, as I explain it in detail. For this, I have used my estimate (calculating flowers) sheet for years. Why is this important? For one thing, you'll need to know how many flowers to order. I alway make up a estimation of what flowers I will use, breaking it down by size. So how do you calculate how many flowers you need? This is a sticky point, as each designer make change the way they insert the flowers.
