Today on At Home with Flowers- it’s time for us to Work on our Stem Skills. I love decorative vases- and sometimes the most beautiful vases- have small necks- so you can only use a few flowers…
That’s where Stem Skills come into play- using a few stems of flowers and foliage- we can create different arrangements that have an exotic feeling- and can make a statement…
Today I use a Queen Protea- and White Brunia- with Robellini Palm- and Red Mink Protea with Lily Grass and Monstera Leaves- and finish up with Green Dyed Pussywillow- Banksia Protea- and I paint a Monstera Leaf with Paint… these Stem Skill are great to add to your flower arranging ‘tool box’… Enjoy!
