Take Your Floral Arrangement From Amateur To Pro By Designing With These Six Elements

In this video I show you the six elements that will take your floral arrangement from amateur to pro! Foliage creates a natural appearance and an armature for the rest of the arrangement. Add line flowers for height and shape. Every arrangement needs focal flowers for the wow factor. Use filler flowers to fill (obvi) the empty spaces. Select some secondary flowers for support and additional color and texture. Finally, stick in some bits and pieces for a little something to make it special.

I love bits and pieces, like nigella pods, and Orlaya has an interesting green structure element once the petals fade. Thank you for all of your help.
