The problem with cutting the stems before one is finished is that sometimes stems end up really short if you want to pull a flower higher... the end result in this case, if it goes into a clear vase, one will see that the stems are too short and need to use a lot of water. So, cut the stems at the end to avoid bad surprises...
I noticed all the florists on RU-vid end up their arrangements with too short stems. They butcher everything: stems, leaves, petals... I watch their videos feeling so pity for the poor flowers... They feel the need to adjust the nature too much. At least here I appreciate living some leaves in place.
You can add greenery, smaller filler flowers, or leave it as is. Greenery is not required to finish a bouquet as it depends on the style and what it is being made for! I go into great detail on this in my course: bouquetbootcamp.mykajabi.com
@@TheFloralCoach great, thank you! I thought it was a requirement to some extent, but what you said makes perfect sense ~ I appreciate the response and will check out the course
i have question i have a bouquet of flowers from a wedding. there were serval bouquets on the tables. They were starting to dry at the end of the evening. I took them home and hung the flowers from a hanger upside down. Is there a spray i can spray to preserve the flowers and would your arrangement listed here work for arranging the flowers? i plan to gather the flowers wrap a long ribbon around the stems and place in a tall cylindrical clear glass vase. What do you think?
OMG! Please stop the music!! I cannot hear what she is saying! Why would you put music on top of her voice, when the point of the video is to listen to HER?!!!
Hi, I saw this video. To give a honest feedback, I think having seen how leanne Kesler from Flower School shows to put together a hand tied bouquet, found your method very tedious & difficult to have a grip & hold the flowers in the desired spot.
