Flower Arrangements in a Vase

What do you get?

Nothing is more valuable and fundamental to floristry than the simple art of putting flowers in a vase. It sounds easy enough, but the extremes of someone doing this for the first time with no prior knowledge versus an experienced florist typically yield a big difference in results. The aim of arranging flowers in a vase is to maximise the aesthetic impact of the flowers. When using many varieties, colours, and sizes of flowers and foliage, you want each stem to compliment the next. It can be a fine balancing act but when you master this technique, it’s one that will no doubt serve as the cornerstone of your flower arranging future. In this course, you will learn how to match flowers combinations as well as vase designs in order to give your house a true outdoor floral feeling.

2. Vase Arrangement Technique

The classic method

Learn how to arrange your flowers in freestyle by using the greenery as a form of chickenwire, this is what gives the arrangement its structure and helps it stay in place. Once we have built the structure we will then learn about layering the flowers and foliage to build out an impressive arrangement. The technique of using the greenery as chickenwire is a much more environmentally friendly technique. In this part of the online floristry course, Zita will impart her expert florist knowledge and by the end of the course, you will be one step closer to being a pro.
