Learn how to create a modern flower arrangement with a floral frog and artificial flowers.
Materials:
Floral Frog
Florist Clay
Wire Cutters
Silk Flowers
Containers
Leaf Ribbon
Tape
Scissors
Step 1: Form small balls with the florist clay. Push the clay onto the bottom of the floral frog.
Step 2: Push the frog onto the bottom of your container.
Step 3: Trim the faux flower stems to size using wire cutters.
Step 4: Push the wire stems of the flowers between the "spikes" of the floral frog. Because artificial stems and branches may be heavy you can apply a small ball of florist clay to the bottom of the stem before you push it into the frog.
Step 5: Arrange the flowers in the vase, using the floral frog to support the stems.
If you are using a clear glass vase you can hide the floral frog with water-resistant leaf ribbon.
Step 1: Measure the ribbon by wrapping it around the circumference of the vase. Add an extra inch or two for overlap. Cut the ribbon using scissors.
Step 2: Place the ribbon along the inside of the vase and create a "tube." Tape the tube together along the inside of the container.
Step 3: Follow the same steps as above to create a beautiful floral arrangement!
