My Creative Workbook

Christine de Beer - effortless floral craftsman

Curve a flower around the design with a T-wire

Hook the wire around the Alstroemeria flower stem

Gently hook a length of bind wire around the flower stem

Bend Alstroemeria to curve around the design

Insert the Alstoemeria into the design. Curve the stem and insert the wire into the design. Pull the wire to nestle the flower into the twig frog. Secure the wire.

Every week I add a new design with related tutorials. Be sure to subscribe to receive an email notification with design inspiration.
