Flowers And A gift


I like it that you can do so many wonderful things with flowers.

Once you understand the basic design rules of flower arranging you can be so creative.

You can really dress up a gift with flowers.

A bottle of wine is made special by adding a spray of flowers.

This would make an ideal gift to present to a hostess having a dinner party.

The bottle has been placed in a cover.

A small foam igloo has been soaked in water and is secured to the top.


The stems of roses, orchids, fern and ivy have been cut to the desired length and inserted into the foam.

Long curving grass has been inserted in the right side.

An arrangement featuring the same flowers is placed at the base.

This design is described briefly - in the Floristry Course you will learn how to create many types of different floral designs with detailed step-by-step instructions.

Choosing Colours For Your Floral Designs

Flower Colours

When you are make a floral designs choose colours that compliment each other.

Pink gerberas and pale alstroemeria, purple mini asters and mauve ageratum as shown in this photo look wonderful together.

Green leaves always provide great contrast

Other colour combinations that go well together  are


Orange, yellow and cream.

Red and white and  apricot and bronze


Vibrant colours such as orange, purple and lime green are great for modern designs.

A floral design using all white flowers can look very elegant.

In the Floristry Course you will learn how to choose colours to give the most impact in your floral designs.
