Elegant and sensual, this floral wave makes a striking centerpiece on a reception table, a bar or a store counter. It highlights a single XL preserved rose with a little greenery and small preserved flowers, on a structure made of bonsai wire. Because every element is preserved, you can prepare several waves weeks before an event and deliver them ready to place.
Material
You will need:
- 20 ft of bonsai wire
- Annealed wire
- 1 XL preserved rose in pink
- 4 small preserved dahlias
- Orange preserved rice flower
- Preserved eucalyptus leaves
- A few small preserved leaves
- Floral glue
Step 1
Cut two 40" bonsai yarns and twist them as the following.
Step 2
Crush 10 feet (ca. 3 meters) of bonsai wire (using the crash technique) then flatten it as the following.
Step 3
Give a triangular shape to the first two twisted wires, then sew the Crash structure inside using the annealed wire.
Step 4
Make a color gradient using the annealed wire from the tip of the triangle.
Step 5
Give a wave shape to the set.
Step 6
Glue the flowers and plants on the structure.
How to use and sell it
- Weddings and events: line several waves along a head table, or use one per guest table, in the colors of the event.
- Hotels and restaurants: a wave on the reception desk or the bar lasts for months with no care.
- Retail: sell it as a ready-made decorative piece; the XL rose and the handmade structure justify a premium price.
Change the rose and flower colors to match any palette: our XL roses come in many shades.
