Can garden flowers make a masculine bouquet?
Просмотров 1,3 тыс.2 месяца назад
Flowers aren't just for the ladies and its not uncommon for men to also be gifted with flowers. When I know the flowers will be going to a male recipient, I make some different design choices that reflect a more modern and masculine style, from colour palettes to flower forms and the overall design of the bouquet itself. I make a lot of lovely textural and frothy garden-style bouquets from my c...

Growing tulips in crates l Are these crowd favourites worth it?
Just beautiful! Creative use of all elements without the use of plastics!!I’m assuming this could be constructed on site pretty quickly. Any thoughts on using large branches in a water source? Spirea, dogwood, lilac? An estimate of how long and tall the box. Is? Thank you! Love it!
So fantastic to see the explanation "backwards", you kept the magic of the final arrangement while revealing its "backstage", gorgeous! And full of easy solutions, thanks!!
Thanks!
Your explanations and demonstrates are just brilliant !
👍👍👍🥰
Love those greens 😍
I didn't know this wasn't a thing. This is the way i have always designed my flowers. But then again I didnt go to school for it or anything I just think of it like fashion. My Mom taught me when I was a little girl to always match ? Accessories to the least amount of color showing in my outfit. So if I had a beautiful White dress with hit pink & Orange flowers that had tiny yellow centers & that was the only yellow on the whole outfit she said to match my shoes purse jewlery or other small items in th!t color. So I always took that approach to flowers in what way you can frim flower to flower knowing each would play off the others natural connection to the color of you starting focal flower. Lol i guess I never knew better to do different maybe i better watch the "Other" videos & see whats considered the "right" way yo do it. Lol.. Thanks for your approach though I need to learn more about the different ways to sprial & do different shapes for bouquets for sure. 😊
I LOVE your channel and I can't wait until you get our more videos. They are so helpful for me
Hi, I just found your channel. Wonderful. Subscribed. Would you know if there are any flowers that they recommend not to use quick dip? Also, have you heard that zinnias, glads and sunflowers do not like flower food? Thanks
Please do more videos like this!! 😊
beautiful! How long does the sweet peas on the vine last?
Amazing work!
Absolutely gorgeous!
Would this recipe help with earwigs? Thank you!
Excellent! Inspired to be more intentional with color pairing and I always love watching you make bouquets!
This was very helpful....I am enjoying your videos alot! Two pallets that I have a hard time working with are one with red and I would really like to learn how to learn to work with a colour pallet that incorporates brown. Thankyou!
Brilliant! From Korea❤
Lovely! Thank you for sharing your thought process and approach to colour selection. Beautiful 😊 more please!
Yes please!
Hello. Thanks for this. When is the non spiral technique a good option? I naturally do not spiral, even though I try. I’m wondering how I can make better use of my natural non spiralling approach?
This was a fantastic little film- thank you. So much in it. Helps me to think about combinations to grow as well as putting together an arrangement. Would love to see more colour schemes. 😊
What is the name of the Dahlia you use here? The color is stunning and I need it! Loved this video so much, all of your content is super helpful and a pleasure to watch. 😊
Yes, I would love to see more color combinations! ❤
I'm learning so much from your videos! Thank you for your explanations and taking us through the whole process.
Awe yay! That is what I want to hear! Thanks Katherine!
Stunning! So helpful. As for color theory, even though you approached flower choices with the starting point of a actual flower (!) rather than the color wheel and color schemes, couldn't the argument be made that the finished product is an example of a monochromatic color scheme.? The dull term "monochromatic" hardly conveys what you achieved. Thank you for taking the time to share your expertise. Thanks for including flower names.
Thanks Nancy! That’s a great question! The colour palette would be considered analogous, from red to pink to purple 😄. To be monochromatic, it would have to be a singular hue, often in ranges of tints and shades; but all of the same hue.
@@floristsonfarms So True! Thanks!
Yes please for more bouquet making vids x
Thank you for your feedback! 💖
A great informative video...thanks 💐
Wonderful! You are very welcome!
Love these colours❤
Thank you! 💖

So beautiful. I would love to learn more please.
Wonderful! Thank you for letting me know!
Gorgeous! I love bouquet making videos.
Thank you! Good to know!
Please do this again with more pastel colors!!
Oooh! That will be fun! Thank you!
I love your videos! 😊❤🥰🙏🙏🙏
Awe thanks for the encouragement! 🥰
❤😊
Thank you!

I will do so, thanks Mienke! 💖
Yes, love this! Colors are gorgeous!
Thanks Rosemary!
So beautiful and SO helpful!
Wonderful, thanks Suzanne!
GORGEOUS!!!🤩
Thank you! 💖
Thank you. The colors make sense when you explain how they tie together.❤
I’m so glad it was helpful to you! Happy flowering!
As an interior designer I really appreciate your attention to a 'color storyboard'. Many flower farmer youtubers do a fine job creating bright and cheerful market bouquets - but yours are 'next level'. If you made more of these videos I would watch every one of them. Thanks for walking thru your comprehensive process
So kind of you to say! I’m glad you’re finding them helpful and enjoyable to watch! I will definitely do some more colour explorations!
So happy this video popped up as a recommendation, I follow you on ig and am in your area but I didn’t know you were on RUclips. Looking forward to catching up on your other videos.
Hi Karen! I’ve been here on RUclips for just over a year, slowly getting the hang of it 😄.
Beautiful and I love all of your videos and information - keep sharing ❤
Yay! Thank you for your encouragement, Susan!
Absolutely stunning! Do you crop plan with a certain color palette in mind or do you just grow all the colors😀?
I grow a lot of different colours as the dahlias are for both late spring, summer, and fall colour palettes (flowering from June through October!). That said, with the rest of my gardens I do grow into specific colour palettes, focusing mostly on purple/pinks and red/orange/yellow
Another great video with helpful insight into your thought process as you design your gorgeous creations. Thank you! What would you charge for this bouquet?
Awesome, so glad it was helpful for you! I haven’t sat down and calculated a tight price; but roughly around $70 CAD if I’ve remembered everything I put in 😄
Good to know, thank you
Beautiful!!!!!!
Thank you! 💖
Stunning! Can you do that with less stems? Like half as many.
Thanks Colleen! Are you asking if it’s possible to use the same palette and make a smaller bouquet? Or are you asking for a bouquet demo of a smaller bouquet?
This is the way my eye naturally wants to build out the color of bouquets. It was cool to hear someone describe it so well. I love the result of the color pallete! And yes I’d love to see more like this.
Awesome, thanks Tori for your feedback!
Stunning! Love your bouquet making videos!
Thanks so much!
Thanks!
So kind, thank you!
Your videos are so informative and straight to the point. I love watching and learning, thank you so much!!!!
Thank you for your high praise! I am so glad you are part of my RUclips community!
