Give a gift with a truly personal touch by making your own floral arrangements. While you’re always welcome to visit O’Shays Flowers and Antiques for professional flower arrangements in Auburn, CA, we’re also happy to supply fresh-cut blossoms for your own designs. Here are three ideas that nearly anyone can implement at home.
Simple Assorted Bouquet: You can’t go wrong with a small, charming bouquet. Our local florists’ advice for putting together a well-balanced bouquet is to make the flowers about one and half times taller than the container. Furthermore, make the height and width of the bouquet about even.
Wild Beauty: For a more rustic aesthetic, we recommend focusing on a single type of flower in either one color or two complementary colors. Fill out the rest of your flower arrangement with two types of greenery, one that’s hardier and another that is more whimsical. You want enough greenery to spill over the vase and provide a foundation for your flowers to rest in.
Bursting Seasonal Arrangement: If you’re feeling more ambitious, visit our flower shop and pick up some seasonal blossoms for a bursting arrangement. You’ll want to pick out flowers in various complementary colors and heights, as well as some simple greenery to fill out the bouquet. To keep the arrangement well-structured and dynamic, create a grid with tape inside the vase to hold the stems in place. Talk to our stylists for further advice and insight into arrangements.
