Water Bottle Arrangement

This is an arrangement done in a water bottle. I used the bottle as a base. And put floral foam inside of it. covered it with leaves and feathers and a second layer of leaves. then i just went to town putting mini flowers in it! This arrangement kind of reminds me of Alice in Wonderland for some reason. it was just cute and petite and i loved this one a lot. this is another arrangement i did last year as a sophomore.

Chinese Carnation Arrangement

This was my very first arrangement I ever made as a floral design student! I had absolutely no idea what i was doing! and it took a lot of time and concentration... a lot more than it should have! but even now looking at it... I really like it! its a pretty decent arrangement!

Rose Boutineers


Prom was a couple of weeks ago. and in class we practiced making boutineers for all the Prom kids! it was so much fun!! I've found that i like working with roses a lot better than Carnations. they just make everything prettier and more elegant!!

Boutineers

Back in January my High school had a girls choice "Preference" formal Dance. My friends and I were trying to do things as cost efficient as possible so we made our own boutineers for our dates. The average Boutineer costs around $ 8.00. We made ours for $1.75!!



Fall Arrangement

A couple of months ago.. about a week before Thanksgiving, a lady in my ward asked me to make a fall time arrangement for her. So she could have something to go on the Thanksgiving table!! this so was so exciting for me to do!! I had a lot of fun doing it, and I am very happy with the way it turned out.
She wanted it to be a 360 degree arrangement. so this is the back :)
