Himself a florist: 5 autumn bouquets with vegetables and fruits
Vegetables and fruit are no less beautiful thanflowers, and their combination gives unusual and elegant bouquets. To make this for a house or a holiday is very simple. If you make a bouquet of vegetables and fruits, want to put it in a vase, choose a vessel with an unusual, better natural texture.
It can also be a vegetable - an empty pumpkin,for example, a copper jug, a clay bowl or a vase, tightly braided with a vine. It will also look nice and contrast - for example, high vases-plates of thin glass for heavy-looking compositions.
Not all bouquets of this type are put into water, evenif they are intended for a vase, not a tray. Be prepared for the fact that the bouquet will need to be fastened with a wire for flowers or a special ribbon. Their color is selected under the general tone of the bouquet.
1. Apples, artichokes and white bush roses
Artichoke - a very beautiful vegetable, he is more than othersIt is similar to a flower and is very often used in mixed bouquets. But next to large green apples, this similarity acquires an unusual shade and ceases to be an imitation. Simply lay on the plate or a small platform for fruit green apples and artichokes in a pyramid of 3-4 layers, place a few small rose buds in gaps, and place three near, at the bottom of the platform.
2. Narcissus and lime
A fresh bouquet delivered to the jar. Cut the lime into mugs about 0.5 cm thick and put them in a regular half-liter glass jar (so that they fill it by a third). Add water and put daffodils in it. Flowers do not need to be many, but it is better if they are at least five.
Tie the jar (so that it is closed approx.30% of the glass is just in the area where there is a transition from stems to lime mugs) with a net of a natural bundle or a strip of kraft paper, and fix the top with a green silk ribbon. If the tape is not enough, glue the craft or mesh to the jar on the double-sided tape.
3. Roses, greens and maple leaves in pumpkin
Connect the yellow roses, several phloxes,yellow maple leaves, basil, barberry, fern and a few small, red apples, and put them all in an empty pumpkin. Roses should be located in the center, like apples, and the entire bouquet as a whole - seem round, slightly overhanging the pumpkin-vase.
Fruit choose a bright orange color, low andsquat; cut the stem with the top part, expand to the appearance of the open bowl and scrub the pulp with the seeds. Water can be poured into it, but if you do not choose the flesh well, the pumpkin-vase will not last long. Ideally, you should dry it a little before putting flowers inside.
4. Apples and green hydrangeas in metal
This type of composition - in the spirit of exceptionalminimalism with a touch of hi-tech. You will need direct vases of different heights, metal, painted for metal or covered with an even layer of foil. Line them up so that the highest one is in the background on the right, and the lower ones (they should differ by no more than 5-6 cm) were in front.
For some of them, put on a large greenapple, and in the rest, put one flower of green hydrangea, cutting the stem so that only the flower itself is visible above the edge of the vase, as round as an apple, but with a different texture and a different tone (lighter green). One apple is placed near the vases just on a table or shelf.
5. Succulent in a wooden box
Take the usual rectangular wooden(if there are any stamps or seals on its sides, and so on), and put succulents of different kinds inside, as well as various red berries - rowan, red currant, cowberry with leaves, and several kinds of herbs. The combination of colors and textures will make it an ideal decoration.
