Theme or subject: Summer arrangement

Study level 2

Style: Natural style

Description:
This arrangement is a spontaneous composition in three vases. The purpose is to create an arrangement and let the flowers flow into one form. Because of the loose combination of summer materials we see a spontaneous summer feeling. The arrangement can be made to your choice as one sided or as all sided. Is is possible to use as well only a few or just a lot of materials. By using many flowers, the summer effect will be stronger. You can go high or more wide in design. Depending the combination and how many materials you use, an open or compact design exist. Important is also the color combination. A complete mixed combination creates a more festive summer.

We need for this lesson:

  • 3 pieces of oasis.
  • To your choice a mixed of a limited  flower combination.
  • A few different leaves.
  • You also can choose an other combination.

Step by step:

  1. Fix the oasis in the vases.
  2. Create the basic form with leaves and let them go from vase to vase, a bit diagonal.
  3. Put the flowers between the green and let all materials flow elegant.
