Preserved flowers are also known as "eternal flowers." This is because, although they look natural, they last for many years in perfect condition. We already explained the advantages of using these flowers in a previous post. Now we're going to tell you, step by step, how to make a bouquet with them.

STEPS TO FOLLOW:
- The first thing you should do is choose the flowers and prepare the materials:
- Three or four types of flowers (preserved roses, carnations, rice flowers…). It's easy to choose them because there are countless types.
-
Foliage (preserved eucalyptus, baby's breath, oak leaves…).
-
Esparto or raffia rope.
-
Velvet ribbon (optional).
- Scissors.
2. Select the
main flower
Ideally, you should use the
largest ones, such as
carnations or
roses. Then, add three or four leaves of
foliage around the main flower you have chosen.
Hold the bouquet by the stems with one hand, while with the other you arrange the flowers.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css=".vc_custom_1585576182258{padding-top: 40px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;}" mobile_bg_img_hidden="no" tablet_bg_img_hidden="no" woodmart_parallax="0" woodmart_gradient_switch="no" row_reverse_mobile="1" row_reverse_tablet="0" woodmart_disable_overflow="0"][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_column_text text_larger="no"]3. Add a
smaller flower.
Some we really like are mini daisies. Place them around the foliage as you turn the bouquet. Make sure these are a little lower than the tips of the foliage. Then
add more foliage around the last flowers, and
cut the stems that protrude from the rest, so that the end is straight.
4. Depending on where you place the
joining point of the stems,
higher up or
lower down, you will get a
more compact or
looser bouquet, respectively.
Tie the bouquet just above your hand with the esparto rope.
And finally, if you want your bouquet to look even more beautiful, wrap the stem with the
velvet ribbon.
As you go, try
different flowers and colors until you discover the combination you like best. And now you can get married with it, put it in a vase in your living room, or give it to someone special.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space woodmart_hide_large="0" woodmart_hide_medium="0" woodmart_hide_small="0" woodmart_hide_extra_small="0"][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_single_image image="26980" img_size="full" alignment="center" parallax_scroll="no"][/vc_column][/vc_row]
