I was asked recently to create flowers for an elderly gentleman’s 91 st birthday. After discussion I was told he had received many awards for his sporting prowess over the years but the one he was most proud of was a competition he had won as a young man. I asked if the trophy was still around and I was delighted to see that it was in fact a cup. This makes designing much easier. Should you have the opportunity of creating something special for such an occasion you might like this idea.
You will need to gather:
- If not a cup perhaps a tall heavy based container would work.
- Foam to fill container
- I used blue delphiniums, along with green protea, succulents and foliage to suit flower combination, or perhaps a few arelia or philodendron leaf. Nothing fussy, but strong in texture.
