We wanted a color palette that represents fall and all its vibrants changing colors. When starting any arrangement it’s great to have filler to start as this begins to fill up the case and will make placing the rest of the flowers a bit easier. It’s almost like creating a grid or netting and helps to hold the additional flowers in the right place.
Tip: Before placing any stem into your vase, give it a fresh cut with a knife or scissors. This will help it to drink up more water and keep it long lasting.
Add the largest blooms, this will help you with how it will be viewed from all sides and when working remember to turn your arrangement while you work. Then fill in with smaller blooms and spread them out throughout the arrangement and fill in any places that need color. Varying your stem length and the direction you place your stem into the vase will allow you to disperse these throughout the arrangement.
One of our favorite parts is adding in some finishing filler as this really completes the arrangement. This step allows you to fill in any empty areas in your arrangement. It also allows you to add some height, wispy interest, and even some seasonal embellishments.
And with that, your fabulous fall flower arrangement is complete! Just remember to change your water every day or every other day. You can also recut your stems every few days to extend the life of your arrangement too.
This combination of different textures, beautiful blooms and the oak leaves is the perfect finishing fall touch to any autumn arrangement. Get these flowers and vases at pennock.com today!
