This is great, thank you!!! Can you advise approx. how many hydrangeas you use per bar?
Thank you for your question! Leanne used 14 blossoms in each 12" bar. The number you would use would depend on the hydrangea blossoms as they do vary in size. Hope this answers your question, and thank you again for watching our show! Do join us again soon when you have the time.
Really I love all design,,,thank u...
Thank You
This looks amazing! How many flowers did you use for this example and how many did you use per bar? Can you please do a close up of the zip-tie segment? Thanks!
This depends entirely the size of the Hydrangea Blossoms. There were 14 in each 12" bar in my demonstration.
I love your smile and your voice is so nice and clear 😘❤❤❤
Thank you for your kind words.
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Eres la mejor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello Cynthia and thank you for stopping by to see this lovely hydrangea table runner! It's one of our favorite floral designs and so perfect for a feasting table at a wedding or special celebration. We hope it inspires to create something similar, and if you do, please let us know how it goes. Sending you very best wishes and hopefully we'll see you again soon!
Very nice design and teaching skills. I wanted to know though, wouldn't the water in those green bars get all over the table as you set them on the table? If so what needs to be done to avoid it?
The "spray bars" are designed to hold water. Create the arrangement, allow it to rest for two hours before placing on a table, it should not leak.
Very beautiful, Leanne!
I'm wondering how would I add water to the arrangement if it's in plastic? Won't hydrangeas drink all water quickly and dye?
The hydrangea are in floral foam that is wrapped in perforated plastic to help stop it from leaking. You should be able to water the table runner before installation and have the hydrangea last throughout the event. Make sure it is dry underneath and lay down a protective barrier so that the table is not water damaged.
Thank you for sharing the wonderful table runner. I want to know how do count or know how many flowers to order to make this table runner?
That's an excellent question, Claudia! It helps to know the length of the table so you can determine how many bars you would need. For this piece, Leanne used 14 hydrangeas in each 12" bar. Of course, the number of flowers you would use would depend on the size of the hydrangea blossoms, which could be smaller or larger. Thanks very much for watching our show, and we hope you will join us again for more floral feasting fun!
Thank you so much for your inspiration and instructions! I’ve been looking for this information. I have a few questions, What type of wood did you use for the runner and the piece flowing over towards the floor? What is the width of the board? Does it come precut or would you need to have it cut according to the covered oasis? I’m also interested in your classes.
These are all excellent questions, Natasha! We created this video a few years ago so things might be a little different now, especially with supply chain challenges. The wood was a lighter weight pine, and the boards were cut according to the dimensions of the floral foam, which are 12 inches long by 3-1/4 inches wide x 3 inches high. You might be able to find pre-cut boards that work for these dimensions depending on what's available at your hardware store or lumber yard. The wood is a great way to stabilize the design and protects the table as well. Thank you so much for watching our show and spending a little time with us. We would love to have you join us for our courses, and we would be happy to chat with you about them at your convenience. Feel free to give us a call at 1-503-223-8089 or e-mail us at rose@floraldesigninstitute.com. You can also find out information about our courses here on our website: www.floraldesigninstitute.com/ We offer both in-person and on-line courses so you can choose what works best for you. Some of our students mix it up and take one course on-line and another in-person depending on their schedules and availability. We hope all of this information helps, and we look forward to speaking with you whenever it works best for you. Best wishes for a marvelous weekend and hope it is filled with flowers too!
Amazing, please do more tutorials as you're an amazing teacher. Would you do a one for flower wall ?
Thank You So Much! Flower Wall can be found here; ruclips.net/user/my_videos?o=U&sq=flower+wall
Enjoy!
Hi Leanne! Thank you for the great video! I’m wondering how would I put this on a table without the table cloth soaking up the water from the foam? If I prepare these one day before, would the table cloth still suck up water from the foam?
Even though these techniques are designed to prevent water leakage you should never place a centerpiece on a table without a waterproof barrier between the arrangement and the table. This can be a simple as a piece of plastic garbage bag.
@@FlowerSchool to protect something like this from leaking on the table, how would you wrap the plastic bag?
Maravilhoso!!!!!
Thank You
Love it😍😍😍 how many hydrangeas do you think use used per bar ?
That's a great question! For this piece, Leanne used 14 in each 12" bar in her demonstration. Of course, the number you would use would depend entirely on the size of the hydrangea blossoms. Hope this helps, and thank you for watching our show. We hope to see you again soon!
Hi Leanne can you make a video showing how to use the oasis garland strands
That's an excellent suggestion, and we will be glad to add it to our list of ideas for future shows. Thank you very much for watching our show, and we look forward to seeing you again very soon for more floral design with Leanne!
Love!
Thank you!
Would you recommend adding flowers to bars on site or prepared prior to arrival at venue ?
+Matilda Ayoola The designs should be prepared one day in advance, then installed at the venue. You want to be sure that all water leakage has stopped prior to placing the designs on the table.
Hi I was wondering if you remember about how many flowers you used for the length of the table. Thank you
This depends entirely the size of the Hydrangea Blossoms. There were 14 in each 12" bar in my demonstration.
Beautiful. What are the name of the products you use to prep the flowers? How long do you let the flowers sit before you start design
That's an excellent question, Michelle! Leanne uses Quick Dip for hydrangeas along with alum, which is a pickling spice found at the supermarket. Quick Dip is a rapid hydrator which causes flowers to drink a lot of water. We have it available on our website along with flower food if you are interested: www.floraldesigninstitute.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=3_17 Once you give the hydrangeas a fresh cut, then dip them in Quick Dip and alum, you should place them in a bucket with clean water and flower food and let them hydrate overnight so they will be fresh and beautiful. Hope this information helps. Thank you so much for joining us for this show, and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Have a wonderful week!
How many bars did you use for it to hang on the side of the table ? how many open head roses would it take to do a 6 ' table rectangular 30" X 72" would 1600 cover it?
+Gloria Jones We used two spray bars, each 12" in length. The number of roses needed for the design that you are planning would be dependent on the actual size of the open roses used. You will need to do the math.
Hi Leanne.lovely lovely ...What are the colors of the hydrangeas you used here...are they all one color but comes in different hues...or are they different colors you used to get this color combination...please advise.
That's a great question, Janelle! We chose a single color, but of course the flowers often come in slightly different hues, which makes for a beautiful table runner. Thanks so much for watching our show, and we hope you join us again soon for more fun and festive floral design. P.S. When shopping with Fifty Flowers, you can choose your own color palette too! www.fiftyflowers.com/
I love it
Thank you!
Hi I was wondering if I should dip the flowers in alum as in your flower wall video. Thank you
Yes, I always dip my Hydrangea stems in Alum just prior to insertion in floral foam.
How long hydrangeas last in your aosis arrangements, I am doing a wedding wreath for a friend. She loves hydrangeas. I worries it will wilt on me
The lasting quality of hydrangea cut blossoms is largely dependent on the variety of hydrangea. Some garden varieties will dehydrate in minutes. Commercial floristry varieties will last seven to ten days. The solution is to test the hydrangeas that you will be using.
Hi,
Need
your help. My son is getting married and I wanted to know how many days in
advance can I make the garland. What process should I follow: collect the
greens from the florist in the box direct from the farm and make the garlands
and then for example the wedding is on Saturday evening so give the greens a
good drink on Friday (dunk them totally soak in water)? OR do I give them a
good drink of water and then make the garlands. These garlands will be place in the cool basement
These are all good questions, Cheryl! You can usually make the garland a couple of days ahead if you have a cool space in which to store it. It is always best to hydrate your flowers and foliage first before you design as it helps them look fresh and beautiful and last longer too. Hope you found this show helpful, and thank you very much for watching! We look forward to you joining us again soon.
Please tell me where you obtained such a thin board....I am only finding 1"thick board....would the 1" thick be too heavy for a 6' table runner?
I found these at my local Ace Hardware store. It is a "crafters" product. Try a craft store.
I’ve seen really thin ones in Michael’s
Also, how do we keep the whole installation safely put on the table just in case someone trips over the hanging part?
Your questions are marvelous, Thebee2345 Ch! The weight of the design should keep it in place, but you might also consider keeping the hanging part well above the floor so someone would be less likely to trip over it. If you decide to make this fabulous table runner, we hope that it is a positive experience for you. Thank you very much for taking the time to join us for so many of our shows. We are delighted to have you here and look forward to seeing you again soon. Please have a glorious week as you continue to work with flowers too!
How do we cover the back/side of the board to protect people from seeing the part hanging to floor?
That's another excellent question, Thebee2345 Ch! You have options as to how to cover the back of the board. You could paint it green or in a color to match the hydrangeas you are using. You could also cover it in leaves and use a flat leaf that will give you a lot of coverage like fatsia or galax leaves. You can glue those to the back of the hanging board so that it becomes essentially invisible to the guests at the special event. We hope these ideas work for you and we would love to hear how it all works out for you. Wishing you all the best and please have a pleasant week with your projects!
How many blooms were used for that runner the fell over the side of the table
That's another interesting question, T. Marie! Leanne was using approximately eight hydrangeas per brick of foam (your number might be different depending on the size of your flowers) and she lashed two bricks together for the side piece so that would be approximately 16 hydrangeas give or take. Again this requires measurement - the length of the table, the height of the table, the length of the foam bricks, and the size of the flowers. We hope this information helps and strongly encourage you to do a test run with a brick or two before you need to create this design. Thanks very much for taking the time to learn more about hydrangea table runners and we hope to see you again soon whenever it works best for you. Hope all goes well with your planning and designing and please be well in all that you do!
How many hydrangeas would you suggest for each foot of garland?
That's an excellent question, Kristy! Leanne used about 14 blossoms in each 12 inch bar. Keep in mind that the number you would use probably would depend on the hydrangea blossoms as they do vary in size. Hope this answers your question. Thank you for taking the time to watch our show, and we hope that we'll see you again soon. Best wishes for a delightful week!
Hello, can you do a stair rail floral arrangement, or floral runner with hydrangeas please please?
Thanks, Magdala! That's a lovely suggestion, and we will add it to our list of ideas for a future show. Hope you enjoyed the tips Leanne provided for the hydrangea table runner, and please do join us for a future show!
How much would something like this cost for a 6' table?
It would vary depending on your area and season. Broad estimate; $250 to $750 retail.
Lovely
Super wonderful idea!!
Thank You.....
How many bunches of greenery should I have for this?
That's an interesting question, T. Marie! Leanne didn't use extra foliage for this design; rather she used the leaves from the hydrangeas to fill in and cover the foam where needed. You could add extra foliage but the amount need really depends on the size of your bricks and the size of your flowers. It's a good idea to do a test run with a single brick and count the number of flowers and foliage you use, then multiply that by the number of bricks you will be using for your table settings. Thanks so much for watching our show and we hope that we'll see you again very soon for more marvelous floral design with Leanne. Best wishes to you for a wonderful week!
Thank you can you list items used
That's an excellent question, LaToshia! Leanne uses Quick Dip for hydrangeas along with alum, which is a pickling spice found at the supermarket. Quick Dip is a rapid hydrator which causes flowers to drink a lot of water. We usually have it on our website along with flower food and alum if you are interested (although with supply chain issues, sometimes things do sell out for a period of time but do check back again): www.floraldesigninstitute.com/collections/flower-care-products Give the hydrangeas a fresh cut, and dip them in Quick Dip and alum, then you can place them in a bucket with clean water and flower food to let them hydrate overnight so they will be fresh and beautiful. Leanne used approximately 14 hydrangeas for each 12 inch plastic wrapped bar of foam. Then she lashes the foam bars to pieces of wood using zip ties to hold them in place. Hope this information helps. Thank you so much for joining us for this show, and we look forward to seeing you again soon. Have a wonderful week, and hope it is filled with flowers too!
I'm confused so you soak the foam with the plastic on?..just to be sure
+Tami Teat The floral foam used is an "Oasis Spray Bar". It is encased in plastic with pin sized holes to allow the water to penetrate the foam.
+FlowerSchool Ok cool thanks for responding 😊
I was confused about that too. I scrolled the comments to find the answer. Great question Tami and thanks FlowerSchool for the reply. Beautiful arrangement. I learned a lot!
Correct, you soak the "Flower Bars" with the plastic intact. The pin holes in the plastic allow the foam to soak up the water, but reduce the water leakage after designing. You must allow for more "soak-time".
Does the water leak onto the table from the soaked bar?
Can you give me a ball park price on how much it costs to do one foam rectangle using hydrangea?
+Melissa White Depending on your location and the size of the hydrangea blossoms, $35 to $50 US.
how many hydrangeas used per 12" bar?
+Traci Mayfield This depends entirely the size of the Hydrangea Blossoms. There were 14 in each 12" bar in my demonstration.
Is it possible to see you teach how to make a fresh flower trip for a curtain backdrop?
I'm not sure of your question. Is this what you are asking for? ruclips.net/video/gbJQZAoYxjc/видео.html
No, but thank you for the video. What i meant was that lately ive seen curtain backdrops with real flower trims. The curtain is gathered to each side and flowers cascading on each side.
Sounds like a simple garland with flowers. ruclips.net/video/WtpdVY89y6U/видео.html
How many flowers did you use?
That's a great question! Leanne used approximately 8 to 10 blooms per bar and the total number of blooms would be 10 multiplied by the number of bars used to cover the length of our table. You might want a few extra blooms in case one breaks or you find that you need more. Thanks so much for watching our show today and we hope you will join us again soon for more marvelous floral design with Leanne and the teachers at the Floral Design Institute. Wishing you all the best!
Hermoso🌹🌹🌹👏🥰
Muchas gracias, Gri! Es hemoso, verdad? So happy you watched our show on the lovely hydrangea table runner which brings joy and beauty to any feasting table. Thank you for being here today. Ojalá que nos veamos pronto!
@@FlowerSchool bellos ,bellos me encantan🥰
Que buena noticia, Gri! Gracias por estar con nosotros.
how many flowers do you need to complete this?
That's a great question, Cori! Leanne used approximately eight hydrangeas per brick of foam (your number might be different depending on flower size) and she lashed two bricks together for the side piece so that would be approximately 16 hydrangeas. The length of the entire piece would depend on the length of the table. It's important to measure the length of the table, the height of the table, the length of the foam bricks, and the size of the flowers. The best thing to do is a test run with a brick or two before you need to create this design. Thanks very much for spending some time with us, and we hope to see you soon. Best wishes with your designing and hope you have a wonderful week!
Can l get the flower foods
That's an excellent question, Rose! We have flower food available on our website here: www.floraldesigninstitute.com/collections/flower-care-products Another product we suggest for hydrangeas is alum, which is also on that same page. It helps those flowers drink water so they can be fresh and beautiful. Thank you very much for taking time to watch our show and for spending some time with us. We hope you will visit us again soon and we wish you all the best for the New Year!
Looks very beautiful , it will cost a fortune here ... 1head of Hydragea cost about 10USD!
That's a good point, Gigit! Hydrangea do vary in price from place to place. Thanks so much for watching our show, and we hope you can join us again for more floral design when you have some free time. Wishing you all the best!
