Bright and extremely light, modern bridal design with the plexiglass circle. This bridal bouquet of the design for the bride create the illusion that the flowers just flow in the air, making the bright and vivid teardrop shape with a stronger line of nepenthes plants. It is my style to have the minimum botanical materials and create the visual abundance in result in any floral design. This design is very easy to make, try yourself!
Supplies:
plexiglass disc 8″ in diameter
Plastic ring and mirrored beads for the handle
small mirrors in 3 sizes
bullion wire
cold and hot glue
some wax to dip the flower stems
tools
Botanical Materials:
Billy balls or Craspedia
Rosehips
Spray Roses
Gloriosa
Phalaenopsis Orchids
Mokara Orchids and
Pitcher Plant or Nepenthes
Step 1.
Drill holes in the plexiglass while the circle still protected by the paper cover or plastic cover. Cut the bullion vire to pieces. Put 3 pieces of the bullion wire through one hole and twist them together.
Step 2.
Make a teardrop shape around the plexiglass circle twisting adjacent wires. Leave one top hole for the handle. Pin mirrored beads through double wires and finish with a plastic ring. Glue 3 size of mirrors between wires using hot glue.
Step 3.
Pin cut craspedia balls and rosehips, spray roses at the ends of the wires (put the end of wire in some cold glue to prevent the flowers from dropping off).
Step 4.
Dip orchid and gloriosa stems into warm wax or use some cold glue at the each flower stem. Gently wrap the wire around the stems.
Step 6.
Place the nepentes stems (one from the top and one from the bottom). Wrap the ends of bullion wire around the pitcher plant stem and attach to the construction.
Step 7.
Lastly, remove the paper cover from the plexiglass disc (it will be free of spots). Spray the wedding design with Clear Life to prolong flower freshness.
