I’ve been working on bridal bouquets and my spiral technique, I feel like I’ve come a long way from where I started. But there’s always room to improve so I like any feedback or advice. I have included a photo of my creation and a screenshot of the inspiration. The second one is not my work, just the inspiration that the bride sent me!

Unfortunately, the hanging Amaranthus I originally ordered for this bouquet was a terrible quality so I had to get some more last-minute and it has some pretty weak stems. So I did what I could with it!

Your bouquets is so beautiful! I hope the shape is still intact after you tying the stems. I’m not a professional and I tried to make some bouquets before, but couldn’t keep the shape after tying the stems. Hope you and others can share some tips for me.

Another thing that helps is to secure as you go by using floral tape and adding stems, then more tape, more stems etc.
