A beautiful bouquet of flowers not only fills the room with fragrance, but also has a visual healing effect, and it relaxes the body and mind while viewing it. In order to celebrate the blooming of flowers in her garden, Athena Calderone, editor of the American edition of ELLE, decided to hold a garden party! So he invited Lisa Przystup, a floral designer from James’s Daughter Flowers, to design a flourishing, wild and green flower arrangement from her garden. Everything looks difficult, but you only need to follow us and you can quickly complete an amazing bouquet in three steps.

First, the first thing to do is to buy some fine wire mesh. Yes, fine wire mesh. (You can choose the ones with rubber coating, which are better because they are less likely to rust. You can buy them online, at flower shops or at flower markets.) Then, adjust the mesh into a spherical shape, large enough to fit into the flower vase you have chosen. It should be inserted tightly so that there is no worry of collision and shaking.

Use green branches and leaves to create layers

Start with green leaves as the base. Create some asymmetrical layers at the bottom, which makes the visual effect more interesting and allows the eye to move along. In this special flower arrangement, this bouquet uses eucalyptus, oregano, mint, lavender, and ferns, all picked from Athena's own garden!

Second layer of flowers

This is Lisa, working on the second layer of flowers. You can see that the green leaves and blooming plants are the main focus of this piece.

Insert the top layer of flowers

Finally, add your top layer of flowers. To make the dinner full of eco-friendly fashion, Athena hopes to use white (peony) and pink and purple (some scattered delphiniums) as the main tones.

Done!
