Arranging Roses in a Ceramic Vase – 3 Simple Steps

Step 1

– Prepare the roses by trimming away any thorns and leaves. Cut the stems at a 45-degree angle to allow better water absorption and prolong the life of the flowers.

– Soak the floral foam in water until it’s fully saturated, then cut it into a circular shape that fits snugly into the mouth of the vase.

Step 2

– Start by crossing four complementary flowers at a 45-degree angle, spacing them evenly with the stems meeting at the center of the vase. Then, fill in the gaps by adding smaller flowers around them.

– Alternatively, you can use bent bamboo strips to decorate the rim of the vase.

Step 3

– Fill in the remaining spaces by arranging the light and dark roses around the vase. Make sure to position the roses higher than the complementary flowers to create a striking contrast.

Step 2

Using a sharp knife or scissors, cut the rose stems at a 45-degree angle, and vary the length of the stems to create a unique shape for your arrangement.
