Vase arrangements
Flowers with
their own place.
Flowers arranged in their own vase, ready to set on a table or give as a gift.
Flowers & vessel
Treat them as one composition.
The size and shape of the vase help determine the arrangement. A broad vessel supports a wider outline; a taller form brings a different balance to the stems. The material and colour of the vessel sit alongside the palette of the flowers.
The result should suit the place it is intended for, whether that is a side table, a welcome point or a corner of the home.
Practical details
Think about where it will live.
The surface size, the room around it and whether the flowers will be viewed from one side or all around affect the shape. A general description of the setting is enough to begin.
