Thanks Sharon
This was a great video and reminder of tips for arranging.
There was certainly extra tips to pick up and others that have been forgotten .😊
Thanks for your lovely comment and thanks again for watching
Oh Sharon, so happy you're back to the "basics". Some things never go out of style and always look good. I appreciate your keeping current with the newer styles, but I love this. I've been a floral designer since the 1980's and I never get tired of focusing on the good old standards. Everything old is new again. Thanks again. From NY, USA
Ohhh I like that saying 'everything old is new again'
@@sharondower Hi Sharon. I can't take credit. It's a song by Peter Allen that was in the movie All That Jazz. It's a NYC thing to say it but it's true when it comes to floral design. I saw one of your recent videos where you said your friends ask you why you make these old arrangements. Nonsense. They are the classics. It's good to branch out, maybe do a Dutch Flemish type of thing but what you do and teach actually sells in a shop, for weddings and events. And as you know, that's crucial when studying this art form. I watch all your videos, I love your work, I love the way you teach, and I feel that I can always see something new in something I've done a million times before. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.
That's how I started! By watching your "Back to basics" It gave me confidence to do the church floral arrangements when the previous person left. I've probably watched every single video! Thank you so much!
If you watched them all, I bet you can predict what I going to say next! Thats some achievement, thanks for the support
I am new to this looking forward to this 🌹❤️
Hope you like it! Just ask questions if you don't understand anything, I'm here to help
Thanks
Thank you for the very clear and detailed explanations. Great lesson for beginners. 😊
You're very welcome! Is there anything else you would like to learn?
Certainly! Other designs such as inverted T, cone, fan, parallel, crescent etc, bouquets , festive arrangements. Lots and lots to learn! Thank you Sharon!
Thank you for giving me a start.
Great news, I'm so glad you are having a go, don't forget there are loads of tutorials on here aimed at beginners.
That looks simple but very chic, might try with some iris
It works brilliantly with Iris and its will look very chic too.
Beautiful Sharon, love the colours. It’s always great to refresh design skills, and thanks for the tip about raising the Gerbera to allow water to pool, didn’t know that. Looking forward to the L shaped design.
I think we never stop learning and there is always something new that I can discuss or something new that I've discovered
Wow, excellent, Sharon. Learnt a few new tips about wiring your Gerbera and neutral colours ❤❤❤❤❤thanks so much.
Thank you, I didn't think there was anything new you could learn! 😂
I never knew that burgundy was a neutral colour, like you explained in the video, that's a new one for me..
I'm not sure if I described it as neutral 🤔?
Ha ha, I checked 4 times to make sure I heard you right. Check back and see. @sharondower
I'll investigate!!
Photinia here in Tasmania are eaten bare to the branches, must taste nice
Oh wow! Is its a mini-beast or something bigger like a rabbit?
Thank so much ❤ if possible could do a video using wring technique please ❤❤❤
Great suggestion!
Her zamanki gibi çok güzel oldu çiçek süslemen bu dizayn ettiğiniz çiçekleri biriktiriyormusunuz evinizin bir köşesinde yoksa dükkanınız olup satıyormusunuz teşekkürler 😊💐 Hülya
Some flowers are from the garden, others from Supermarkets that are only bought for classes and lots of from local growers and my garden. I don't sell flowers like a shop, I only buy flowers that are needed for events and weddings. I'm not a shop you can walk into and buy flowers
Hello Sharon,
Would zinnias be suitable for this arrangement.
I live in Barbados and have been following your channel since 2021.
Excellent channel
Thank you very much, Zinnia would be perfect. If you have a selection start with the smallest flower for the longest stem and the most open near the bottom. Good luck
