Flowers are slowly integrated into our lives, and different combinations of home flowers can bring different vitality and vigor to our lives!
For home floral arrangements, there are 9 special tips to enhance your home and have a more sophisticated life!
1. Plan your dining room table before choosing flowers.
Depending on the tone of your dining room you can determine what kind of flowers are best suited for your table.
The small fresh style of the table is best to choose simple and fresh green plants for decoration, while the classical and gorgeous home decor can choose some colorful flowers to decorate.
2. Purchase a bouquet that has been matched.
One way is to buy a few bouquets that have been matched, and then pick your favorite flowers out of them and then match them so that you can easily pick a variety of favorite flowers at the same time, and then match them with a variety of options.
3. Refer to the meaning of the flowers.
Set a theme for your dining room or your entire home, and the flowers you choose can fit into that theme.
When introducing your family and friends to the flowers on your table, you can say their special meaning and let the life of the flowers convey your thoughts.
4. Choose the right vase.
Personal style, height, and width are all deciding factors in choosing a vase. Don't limit yourself to choosing just one height or width of vase for your decorations, consider your dining environment and whether the flowers are suitable for such a vase.
5. Strip the leaves.
Before you start arranging the flowers, strip their leaves from the bottom or they will take up too much space in the vase and the water will become cloudy. The rhizomes of the flowers also need to be cut to the right length and the bottom of the rhizome needs to be cut at a slant.
6. Add food and water.
Add plant nutrients to the water so that the flowers can remain in optimum condition for many days.
7. Arrangement with the theme flower as the centerpiece.
Insert your theme flower into the vase first, then the rest of the flowers. Usually choose an odd number of flowers for a more comfortable visual effect.
8. Overall effect.
Take a look at the bouquet before and after, adjust the order of the flowers according to the overall effect, check whether leaves are hanging outside the vase, and remove the excess leaves.
9. Refrigerate the bouquet
If you have a special holiday to prepare for, get your bouquets ready some days in advance and place them in a cool, out-of-direct-sunlight place so they can stay fresh for longer.
