DFA Class - Biedermeier Style Bridal Bouquet 2008 July 24

Biedermeier Style Bridal Bouquet

What is Biedermeier??
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biedermeier


Flowers : Rose(red), Dianthus(pink), Hydrangea(purple), Gaultheria shallon & Asparagus virgatus


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This hand-tied bouquet is done by tutor... isn't it beautiful & elegant :)


after placing a rose in the central of the hydrangea, use asparagus as separator between hydrangea and dianthus;



Adding Dianthus one by one in spiral order, adjust them as round/circle as possible. 13nos. of Dianthus has been used for this layer;



For beginner, better to add one layer of asparagus before adding roses,but for tutor, it's not a problem without them;



Same as previous layer, adjust these roses as round as possible, it's about 14nos. roses used; trimmed gaultheria (3-4 pcs of leave in one stem) add to the base as a protective layer;



Tied the flowers with string before using ribbon for decoration;



a standard hand-tied bouquet should be able to stand; see it won't fall lah!

using ribbon tie and making knots of each round;





See!! such a femininity bridal bouquet after adding ribbon handle;
