My Creative Workbook

Christine de Beer - effortless floral craftsman

Connect the dot grass Armature

Blow up the balloon and secure with a knot

Rest the balloon on a drinking gl;ass to make it easier to work with

Place three grass snippets on the balloon and secure the end pieces with a small dot of flower glue.

Glue in a few more grass snippets leaving gaps between the blades

Follow the curve of the balloon

Flip the balloon over to rest the grass side on the drinking glass

Cover the balloon leaving only a gap at the top. Simply popping the balloon is too violent and the snippets of grass might break as well. Place a length of tape on the balloon

See the Tutorial below for more information on how I slowly release the air from a balloon

Let the air out and remove the balloon

Fill a small glass vase with water and set the grass armature on the vase. Add the fresh flowers.
