Another way to include the colorful packaging of a beautiful bouquet in your floral design is to cut circles or squares from the wrapping and place them under your arrangement. The packaging can act as a coaster and as an added element of color in your display like this small circle of lime green plastic wrapping.
To make the arrangement shown here:
- Three alstromeria lilies were banded together to form a grid in the bowl.
- Foliages were cut short and filled in around the bowl between the alstromeria stems.
- Then the rest of the blooms were cut and placed between the initial insertions of alstromeria.
- One carnation was placed at the top of the flowers to add a little height.
It is a simple little arrangement – easily made with just 1/3 of a big beautiful bouquet. And, when it gets moved to a table it will have its own colorful coaster (thanks to its packaging) to sit on.
