L-shaped and asymmetrcal triangle design

This arrangement is a traditional L-shaped design. This design would be suitable to use in the corner of a windowsill, or an apartment window, or two either end of an altar, or a mantelpiece, so it is quite versatile. The design is similar to an asymmetrical triangle, but one side is kept much lower than the other, and is longer, to form the L-shape, which can be left or right-handed, whichever suits your purpose. To form the outline of the design, I have used Berberis thunbergii atropurpurea, a lovely purple-leaved shrub, which goes very well with the pink flowers used. Other foliage used was Mahonia japonica, Hedera colchica 'Sulphur Heart' and Liriope muscari variegata (Lily Grass). The flowers used were all pink, and for the focal point I have used Lilies. Other flowers used were Roses, spray Carnations, and spray Chrysanthemums.

This arrangement is a traditional asymmetrical triangle. That means that one side of the triangle is longer than the other. It is a design which is very versatile, and can be used in many situations. To establish the height and width, I have used Phormium tenax purpurea, which goes well with the pink flowers used. To form the outline of the design, I have used Eucalyptus gunnii (juvenile form), which has a lovely blue-grey colour. Other foliage used was Heuchera 'Velvet Night' with purple leaves, and Hedera colchica 'Sulphur Heart'. The flowers used were all pink, and for the focal point, I have used Lilies. Other flowers used were Roses, spray Carnations, spray Chrysanthemums and pink Chamelaucium uncinatum (Waxflower).

Eight Basic Flower Arranging Designs

Eight Basic Flower Arranging Designs
If you are used to working with fresh flowers, it will take some time to get used to all the possibilities and limitations when using silks. Though so similar in use, artificial flowers are an entirely different art form. The line, focal, filler technique is an excellent way to design artificial and dried flower arrangements.

1. Horizontal Arrangements


1. Using a relatively shallow container, anchor foam with a lot of glue or use anchor pins, and position sprays of line flowers to establish the shape of the design.


2. Insert focal flowers in the middle so they gently droop over the lip of the container on both sides, reach towards the line material and extend on either side of the middle. Leave room for filler flowers.


3. Fill in and around focal area with filler flowers and foliage.



2.Vertical Arrangements


1. Wedge or secure foam in a vase with hot glue. Cut the stems of the tallest flowers or leaves to reach three or four times the height of the vase.

2. Place the focal flowers vertically within the diameter of the vase.

3. Fill in the areas as needed with filler flowers.



3.Triangular Arrangements


1. Secure floral foam. Determine the vertical height and horizontal width with the smallest line flowers and/or leaves. Make the height higher than the width.


2. Position the largest focal flowers in the heart of the arrangement and slightly lower to give weight and balance.


3. Fill in with the filler flowers and foliage keeping within the triangular shape.



4. Crescent Arrangements


1. Secure foam in container. Determine length of crescent and insert curved line flowers or leaves to follow the crescent form. Angle the shape to balance in the container.


2. Insert the focal flowers fairly low in the bowl to achieve balance, stability and depth.


3. Fill in around the focal flowers with smaller flowers and foliage. Place wisps of filler flowers that gracefully taper off the ends.



5. Oval arrangements


1. Secure the floral foam. Determine the height with line flowers, then frame in the outer edges of the oval shape with light colored flowers and foliage.


2. Place the largest, strongest or brightest flowers in the focal area.


3. Fill in around the larger flowers and leaves with the filler flowers.



6. Minimal Arrangement


1. Adhere foam to container. Insert vertical line flowers to determine the height, and secure the horizontal line flowers to give the basic outline of the arrangement.


2. Place the focal flowers.


3. Fill in with filler flowers as needed.



7. The lazy "S" or "Hogarth's Curve"


1. Anchor the foam securely. Bend the stems gently into graceful curves and insert them in place so they balance.


2. Add the focal flowers following the lines of the upper and lower curves.


3. Cluster filler blossoms and foliage around the central flowers maintaining the rhythm of the ‘S’.


8. Free Standing Arrangements


1. Fill a shallow container with foam that extends one inch over the top. Secure the foam with hot glue, floral clay or floral tape. Define the shape of the design with the line flowers and leaves.


2. Place the focal flowers and leaves, turning the vase as you go so all the sides are even.


3. Add filler flowers to integrate the design.


GOOD LUCK!!!

Blast of Inspiration

Expect a blast of inspiration to come your way -- suddenly you know exactly what to do. That doesn't mean others are going to like it, but you can worry about that problem when you get to it.

Where, ideally, do you see yourself in five years? Answering this typical interview question -- and using your imagination to its fullest to do so -- is atypically fruitful right now. You may encounter something you hadn't considered.

The time is definitely right to try something new -- maybe a career move? If you're interested, you will be amazed at how many places would be happy to recruit you away from your current position. Just don't let it be known publicly.

At times

Salam,
You want to go faster and faster, but you should calibrate your speed to match the pace of the day -- or at least the pace of your peers. If you get too far ahead, catching up will get difficult, plus you risk the possibility of ruffling a few feathers. Actually I am feeling a little bit annoyed with something or maybe someone or maybe more than someone....... only god knows.. It's just a nature of me to share my work with friends and colleagues. The feeling of satisfaction and contentment is always there deep down when I can share work done with friends whom I know cannot make it on time.  Just to help out....that's all.

Be careful with your coworkers -- some serious friction is inevitable if you're not careful. Luckily, you can remedy the situation with a little attention to their needs. People tend to calm down if they feel like they're being heard and respected. But sometimes , they dont know how to apprieciate when you give too much.I get fed up at times.
