ROM bouquet

This sweet pink roses bouquet was done for WL's friend's ROM sometime in February... nearing Valentine's Day. Due to V-day, prices of flowers have gone double, some even triple! However, I didn't charge double on WL, I'm more keen on the opportunity to do the ROM bouquet. In fact, I'm very flattered that he trusted me! Thanks for giving me the opportunity WL. I hope your friend liked the bouquet.

I matched the pink roses with berries and blue statice, to give more colors and to 'bring out' the pink roses. Tied with pink ribbon, I added pearl string as accessories.

 

Artificial flowers – Contrast

Love the color contrast. Simple yet eye-catching

Artificial flowers – Tulips

Tulips – my fave flower :)

Preparation: sponge, glue, moss – doesn't it look like moss cake!

Tulips are purposely slanted opposite directions

This one was fun but took quite long time to finish. Really need patience and energy for this! But the end result was satisfying, and I got to know the price for it is not cheap! So much satisfaction seeing my work being put up for sale at such 'nice' price :)

Up for sale.... notice the price tag? Nice number :)

Basket arrangement

It's been awhile I haven't update my flower blog – I'm feeling quite guilty. It's already 3 months into 2011, been quite busy in these past months – need to work during weekend, thus I've been skipping classes quite frequently. After this, I should be able to attend class on a consistent manner – schedule to 'graduate' in May :)
