What should you do if the flower arrangements at home don't look good? Today, I'll introduce several flower arrangement methods to you.

Although wide-mouthed vases can hold more flowers, they also bring difficulties in fixing the flowers. At this time, the "tape cross fixation method" can come in handy. First, make sure the mouth of the vase is dry with no water stains left. Then, stick the tape across and lengthwise on the mouth of the vase to form a grid like the Chinese character "井". Although wide-mouthed vases can hold more flowers, they also bring difficulties in fixing the flowers.

The chicken wire mesh is also a great helper for fixing flowers. Choose a chicken wire mesh with an appropriate thickness, knead it into a ball of a proper size, and place it on the mouth or at the bottom of the vase. Its unique grid structure provides a stable support for the flower stems, enabling the flowers to take root firmly. Moreover, the chicken wire mesh can be reused, which is both economical and environmentally friendly. After finishing one flower arrangement, take it out and tidy it up, and it can continue to contribute to new flower artworks next time.

The flower arrangement with a flower frog shows its unique charm when there are few flower materials. The small flower frog has a metal surface covered with fine needles. Place it inside the container, and you only need to insert the flower stems of a few flowers and leaves into the gaps between the needles to fix them easily. A few fresh narcissus flowers paired with several tender green bamboo leaves can create a simple and artistic atmosphere under the backdrop of the flower frog. When it's not in use, remember to store the flower frog upside down to prevent its sharp parts from causing accidents.

The flower arrangement with floral foam is more common. When soaking the floral foam, you need to wait patiently for it to sink and absorb water naturally. Never rinse or press it directly with water, lest its internal structure be damaged and its water retention effect be affected. Put the fully soaked floral foam into the container. After inserting the flowers, water the floral foam appropriately every one or two days to keep the flowers nourished continuously. The floral foam can be flexibly cut according to the shape of the container to meet various creative modeling needs. Whether it's an exquisite European-style flower arrangement or a charming Chinese-style flower art, it can be perfectly presented through the floral foam.

There is also the flower stem crossing method, which makes full use of the characteristics of the flowers themselves. Choose flower materials and foliage materials with numerous branches as the base, such as dense twigs or vines. Interlace their flower stems inside the vase to support each other. Then insert the main flower materials, and they can show their graceful postures in this natural support structure. The flower arrangements created by this method are full of natural wild charm, as if bringing a small forest or a flower cluster into the home.
