A clean vase will prevent bacteria growing, meaning your flowers will last for longer. Then fill it with enough clean water \u2014 usually at least three-quarters full.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, flowers with \u2018furry stems\u2019, such as poppies and gerberas don\u2019t like a lot of water as it makes the stems rot. If you are using these flowers, it\u2019s best to use a small amount of water and refresh it as required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Selecting your flowers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You can usually grab beautiful fresh flowers for a bit cheaper from your local markets, as well as foraging in your own garden for greenery and foliage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Blue gum and tree ivy work great as foliage, as well as any shrubs with a long enough stem to use in your vase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"696\" height=\"391\" src=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-foliage.jpeg\" alt=\"Cut foliage\" class=\"wp-image-24330\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-foliage.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-foliage-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-foliage-600x337.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 696px) 100vw, 696px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Just make sure you\u2019ve removed all leaves from the stems or they will rot in the water, creating bacteria and reducing vase life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When it comes to choosing flowers, it doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re not an expert. You just need think of the height and shape of the vase you\u2019re planning to use. Having a mix of different heights, flower shape, and texture creates movement and visual interest in an arrangement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ve used a combination of taller flowers with shorter focals and a filler flower in this arrangement. If you\u2019re new to flower arranging, there is no need to feel nervous. By following my step-by-step guide, you\u2019ll be able to build a floral masterpiece in no time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flowers used<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Foliage \u2013 gum leaves<\/li><li>Tall flowers &#8211; mauve delphinium &nbsp;and dark purple stock<\/li><li>Small filler \u2013 easter daisy<\/li><li>Focal 1 \u2013 tulips<\/li><li>Focal 2 \u2013 roses<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"806\" height=\"442\" src=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers.jpeg\" alt=\"Cut flowers\" class=\"wp-image-24329\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers.jpeg 806w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers-300x165.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers-768x421.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers-766x420.jpeg 766w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers-696x382.jpeg 696w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers-600x329.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Cut-flowers-50x27.jpeg 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 806px) 100vw, 806px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to create your own floral arrangement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Foliage first<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Put your foliage in first to use as a base to hold your flowers in place. Just be careful not to overcrowd your vase, as you\u2019ll run out of space for the flowers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"686\" height=\"386\" src=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Foliage-in-vase.jpeg\" alt=\"Foliage in vase\" class=\"wp-image-24331\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Foliage-in-vase.jpeg 686w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Foliage-in-vase-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Foliage-in-vase-600x338.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 686px) 100vw, 686px\" \/><figcaption>Foliage is the first step in how to create your own floral arrangement<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Cut as you go<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut your stems to length as you go, starting with your tallest flowers \u2014 in this case the delphinium and stock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s really important you don\u2019t cut the stems until you\u2019re ready to put them into the water or they will form a seal on the ends which means they can\u2019t drink the water up through the stems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cut the stems on an angle so they can draw water easily in the vase. To figure out what length you need the stems, hold them up next to the vase as you cut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Start with your tallest stems<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Put your tallest stems in the centre of your arrangement, unless you are creating something which can only be viewed from one side. In this instance, they should be at the back of the arrangement, but still centred in the vase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"626\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-3-of-flower-arranging.jpeg\" alt=\"Step 3 of flower arranging\" class=\"wp-image-24332\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-3-of-flower-arranging.jpeg 626w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-3-of-flower-arranging-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-3-of-flower-arranging-600x337.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 626px) 100vw, 626px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4.

This helps to bring all the elements together and start to fill the gaps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t use too much though as you\u2019ll overpower your focal flowers. Other good small filler flowers are Queen Anne\u2019s lace, babies breath, misty, or natives such as wax flower.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"651\" height=\"366\" src=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-5-flower-arranging.jpeg\" alt=\"Step 5 flower arranging\" class=\"wp-image-24334\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-5-flower-arranging.jpeg 651w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-5-flower-arranging-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Step-5-flower-arranging-600x337.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 651px) 100vw, 651px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, you\u2019re ready to add your final focal flower (we used roses) to the arrangement, filling in the gaps as you go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-default\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"633\" height=\"356\" src=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Completed-flower-arrangement.jpeg\" alt=\"Completed flower arrangement\" class=\"wp-image-24328\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Completed-flower-arrangement.jpeg 633w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Completed-flower-arrangement-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/stylecurator.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/08\/Completed-flower-arrangement-600x337.jpeg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 633px) 100vw, 633px\" \/><figcaption>Chellie shares all the steps on how to create your own floral arrangement<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.
