The abundance of various bouquets presented in floristic salons is pleasing to the eye. In addition, in some stores you will be offered to pick flowers for the event yourself, providing competent advice and assistance. However, you can collect a bouquet of flowers yourself. It is enough to learn a few simple rules.
It is necessary
- - flowers;
- - tapes;
- - cellophane or newsprint.
Instructions
Step 1
Remember how the word "bouquet" itself is translated. In translation, it means "beautifully collected group of flowers." It follows from this that the priority in the composition should be beauty, and not practicality or pretentiousness. Another direction for orientation is the reason for which the bouquet is intended. Depending on who you present your creation to, the basic component, color combinations and design options change. At the same time, take into account also the age of the gifted person, his social status, gender and hobbies.
Step 2
Use all the information you gain to think through the basic concept of the bouquet. Only true masters can afford to make a bouquet, guided solely by intuition. You need to accurately imagine the end result to which you will strive.
Step 3
Choose light shades and flowers with unopened buds if the gift is for a young woman. It can be delicate white irises or roses, touching chrysanthemums. The entire palette of pastel colors is at your disposal. Give older women a bouquet in darker colors. Dilute it with a few lighter spots, such as white, using decorative grass or ribbons.
Step 4
Do not forget that red bouquets are appropriate if you want to express your love for a person. They can be intended for an idol, as well as a person who is retiring, but you should not give them to your boss. Pay attention to the sunny colors - yellow, bright red flowers cheer you up, and you can give them to everyone.
Step 5
Going on a visit, collect a bouquet for the hostess and for her daughter. The rules of good manners oblige you to show attention to all female representatives of the receiving party.
Step 6
Remember that there must be an odd number of flowers in a bouquet. It is believed that if there are more than 12 of them, then the rule ceases to apply, but not everyone believes in this, so play it safe and do not allow an extra flower to appear.
Step 7
Do not collect an exotic bouquet for a new person - limit yourself to standard flowers. Also, do not be zealous with wildflowers - they will be more appropriate in a circle of friends.
