Just in time for the holidays! Floral designs are more popular around holidays, and this design in particular is a Christmas design. It showcases a formal linear arrangement and lots of holiday cheer!
Design
To start this design, first place floral foam in a dish and secure with clear floral tape. Proceed to cover the foam with moss and secure with wire hair pins. To start this design, create your line. For this example I used white roses to create my main line. Do not use only one bloom of anything, always have multiples. Next, create another line at an angle directly away from the main line. Fill in at the base of the design with foliage and filler flowers. Curly willow is an excellent way to easily extend and highlight the lines that you have created.
Critique
I like the holiday feel that this design has, but overall it looks messy to me. I think that my asters appear to fog over the lines that I have going with my roses, making it hard to see any direct line. There are a lot of stems in this design and a lot of different angles, and I personally like a more simple design. More color would have been nice, instead of only having one small patch of hypericum berries.
