Inspiration Found in Floral Arrangements

We gather inspiration for design from many different sources, but one of our favorite and most unexpected sources is floral arrangements! We love browsing through Pinterest boards of gorgeous flowers and pinning any that catch our eye. A lot of the time when we are putting together a design or mood board we will start with a floral arrangement to decide the colors and feeling of a project. We put together a mood a board that highlights this method, hopefully giving you some inspiration of your own!

And speaking of floral arrangements, here are some tips for DIY’ing your own!

• Mix in stems and greenery you can forage from your own garden. If we purchase florals from the supermarket or farm stand, we love mixing in stems we have at home, this adds a wild and organic touch to the arrangement.

• If you’re using a ceramic vase, place a smaller container inside for the water, along with a little chicken wire or floral tape. This will help the stems stay in place.

• If you don’t have any chicken wire on hand, start by placing thee stems in a criss cross pattern. This will give your arrangement a sturdy base.
