Reply:Try wrapping the banister with a garland of flowers. Put a big bouquet on the end pole.
Reply:You could %26quot;swoop%26quot; tthe tulle and use flowers to attach it to the railing. Leave it draping and full. Ribbon would also add a flourish.performing arts

Flower arrangement?

I am trying to sort some flowers for my grandads funeral we really want bicycle shaped flowers as he loved his bike so much ive searched the net and just cant find any can anyone help?
Flower arrangement?
Say
FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersYou would have to get a silk florist to create this. I am sure it would take time %26amp; be very costly.
Reply:try ebay
Reply:What about having columbines. They look like wheels. You could also have a florist take a green oasis funeral block and make a bike out of different flowers. It would hang on a stand. It would be very cool. I did one that was a square and the flowers were shaped like the country Italy.
Reply:Call your local florist and ask them, It is not likely that you will find something like that ready made. I have seen flower arrangements in many diffrent forms/shapes/objects.








Give them a call and they should be able to arrange that for you.fitness

Daisies (both yellow and white) with which pink or fuchsia flower?

Sorry, again but this time for the people in the garden section. I want flower arrangements with yellow and white daisies (the little ones not gerberas) but also a pink or fuchsia flower. I think they need a hint of color... Any recomendations? Thanks.
Daisies (both yellow and white) with which pink or fuchsia flower?
Say
FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy Flowersyou can add gerberas for extra colour and I think they would look nice with %26quot;normal%26quot; daisies





carnations are also nice (I don%26#039;t like bunches of carnations alone but mixed they add nice colour)





snapdragons are interesting looking and colourful





sweet peas are adorable





with daises I would add something %26quot;natural%26quot; looking, I think something like an orchid would look wrong together
Reply:if lilacs are in bloom they would be grand; if not, a few pink roses
Reply:Daisies are small flowers so think small. I wouldn%26#039;tv choose fuchia because it will kill the delicate look of the daisies
Reply:The best way that I have to add this color in this type of format with these flowers is:


Use a clear vase with the glass colored beads in the color that you are striving for.


However, you could possiblely use maybe carnations that have been dyed.super nanny

How can I make this flower arrangement? HELP?

I was watching a wedding show, and saw a floral arrangment simmilar to this...

How do i get floating candles like that?


and do i just use water?


Can I use any type of flower?


Thanks =]
How can I make this flower arrangement? HELP?
Say
FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersYou can get floating candles anywhere. Less than $2 a piece. Try google search %26quot;Floating candles.%26quot;





You just use water.





You can%26#039;t use any kind of flowers. The petals have to be firm. Soft petals won%26#039;t hold their original shape when they are submerged into the water. The one you see in the picture is called %26quot;Mokara Orchid.%26quot; Either this one, or you can use Dendrobium Orchid (cheaper) or Cymbidium Orchid (expensive).





Don%26#039;t use silk. They are too soft; besides, they are too buoyant.
Reply:i don%26#039;t know if that is water or a special oil. i have seen both. you can buy floating candles almost anywhere. you could use whatever type flower you wanted, silk would last a long time.

Reply:I would recommend silk flowers because not all flowers do well submerged in water like that for long periods of time. All you need is the floating candles and the glass votive which are cheap. Any craft store would have them but i would try and find them online.skin disease

Can I get a flower critique?

Since I am on a tight budget, I am using silks and arranging them myself. We are renting a rather large wedding pole tent and the lighting will be dimmer than in the picture. I just wanted to see if I could get a helpful critique from the fantastic %26quot;wedding%26quot; community! Am I off to a good start? I obviously haven%26#039;t done the final %26quot;tweaking%26quot; but I have 3 height variations that I am using and I have made one of each so far. (28%26quot;, 20%26quot; %26amp; 8.5%26quot;)


My colors are peach, pink, yellow and white. Also, I noticed that I forgot to tuck the mini-light strand battery box underneath the ivy for the picture. Once buried in ivy, it is completely hidden.)


If you can offer any helpful suggestions, I would appreciate it. I have never done flower arrangements before, so I need some insightful tips! Or if they look okay so far, I appreciate knowing that too.


If you plan to completely bash them-don%26#039;t bother...move on to another question.

Can I get a flower critique?
Say
FlowersBirthday FlowersSympathy FlowersYes, they%26#039;re pretty. Good work. My personal opinion would cause me to suggest that you use a white candle or a yellow one if it%26#039;s going to be next to a pink flower, unless you can match the colors of the flower and the candle exactly. I don%26#039;t think the peach and pink do well next to one another when they aren%26#039;t the same item. Peach flowers next to pink ones look just fine, truly. With the candle, it doesn%26#039;t carry over for some reason. I%26#039;m not even quite sure why; it just looks a little mismatched. Honestly, using all white candles would be simplest, because they could then be placed with any of the colored flowers. They would also glow nicely, if the lighting is going to be dim. I think you have good ideas for how to make things nice on a budget. Keep up the good work. Congrats on your upcoming wedding.
Reply:I suggest visiting weddinglenox.com and post your request. Their matching system http://www.weddinglenox.com/f-membersign... will match you up with local vendors with pricing you specified. I tried it and have good result as I only recieved response from vendors according to my request.





One problem I had with my wedding is that it is hard to locate vendors in most website as most likely they group by states and there are too many of them that%26#039;s too far from me and I have to look at each site to figure out.





The sites I provide above have a easy to use layout to show you pictures, pricing and location in one page plus, you can send out your inquiry for matching vendor to contact you. That save me lots of time to locate the best vendors with the right price.
Reply:they are very nice, you did well. however, i would add a few more flowers to each, there seems to be a lot of green


also, how many people will be seated at each table?, this amount of flowers would be best if placed on a table to seat 6 or more, any fewer and it would crowd the table. also, sit at the table and have others sit around you, do the peices obstruct your veiw and make it hard to talk across the table? if so, you may want to do something to raise them
Reply:Wow!! Those are very pretty!!! I think you did an awesome job!!
Reply:Very nice. The yellow one has too much green.
Reply:very nice!
Reply:I think they look great.


My only suggestion...in the yellow one, add some more flowers? It looks a little barren on the side you have pictured as it looks like all the flowers are towards the top. I dont htink the guests will be able to see the top of the yellow one, so maybe just more some of the flowers to the sides!


Looks great!
Reply:That sounds very nice!
Reply:Very pretty.
Reply:I love the one on the table. The one with the yellow flowers (I guess the 20%26quot;) looks like it needs a couple more flowers; maybe something small. The tallest one is really pretty too. Nice job for a first time. I also used silks at my wedding except for the bouquets.
Reply:I think they are pretty. My critique is that there seems to be just a little too much greenery. I would add more flowers to all of them. And perhaps a softer pink would be in order. The other answerer is also right about pink and peach not quite going well together. But your arranging and scale seems perfect.
Reply:Too much green. Add more flowers :) Good job though.
Reply:I think you did a pretty nice jobnanny
