Romantic Compote Centerpiece

[@JaneAustin4ever]

Lovely!, My Daughter and I used Fifty flowers for her wedding. We designed all the flowers our self. We love a good DIY. With the help and guidance of Fifty Flowers along with videos like this one we had a wonderful flowers at her wedding including all the bouquets. Thanks for sharing.

[@FlowerSchool]

That sounds lovely, Debi, and a great way to create really beautiful blooms for your daughter's wedding! It can be really satisfying to do it yourself, especially if you use gorgeous flowers like those from Fifty Flowers! Thanks so much for watching our show, and we hope you will join us again soon!

The spiral twisted wire is interesting. I would have guessed that there was some floral foam in there. But it seems like the twisted wire allows for more freedom in where you can place the flowers and greenery. Genius!

[@FlowerSchool]

It really is an excellent mechanic, Ks80s! It works a lot like floral netting to give you a foam free armature to hold the flowers and foliage in place. It also adds a bit of sparkle to the design and matches the compote as well. Thank you very much for taking the time to join us for this fabulous floral design. We are very happy to host you here and hope that we'll see you again soon. Wishing you a wonderful week and hope all is well with you!

I love the flowers with a dark centers and the fragrant roses it's nice to place them by your bedside so when you wake up in the morning you can smell the roses. lovely video 🌹

[@macbelle3rd108]

MrMATRIX the dark centered ones are called anemones. They're my absolute favorite!

[@FlowerSchool]

Yes, you are right, Malenie, and they are beautiful flowers! Thanks so much for watching our show, and we hope you will join us again soon.

[@FlowerSchool]

It was lovely to have you part as of Flower School Live yesterday, Matrix, and we are happy to hear that you enjoyed this show as well. Anemones are the flowers with the dark centers, and they are truly lovely. We look forward to seeing you again soon, and thank you for being such a regular viewer!

Thanks Ms. Leanne ! Your ideas are always so well designed & executed ! I also appreciate your natural yet polished manner of explaining things. Going through all of your videos - binge watching them all into the wee hours :o)

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank you so much for your kind words.

[@antoniabuenawalker6834]

So beautiful! Love it so much...the choice of flowers, the colors and the way you put it together is just stunning. It speaks of love! Thank you so much for sharing. God bless you.😀

[@FlowerSchool]

Delighted that you enjoyed this.....

[@debbydibella5824]

Great idea Leanne, with the aluminum wire attached to the handles of the compote. No tape necessary!

[@FlowerSchool]

Thanks so much, Debby! The aluminum wire works really well with the compote and lets you hide the mechanics too. Thanks so much for watching our show, and hope we'll see you again soon!

[@breannepeterson5664]

Beautiful ♥ thank you for sharing

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank you very much for your kind comment, and thank you for watching our show!

[@lizziebee315]

This is so beautiful! I do have a question though which I hope you can answer, that is; does flower food, quick dip or even oasis, chemically react with silver? I have a comport that is silver plated and I am apprehensive. Please could you advise? Many thanks. Lizzie.

[@FlowerSchool]

As a general rule we never place floral foam or even plain water into a "precious" or delicate container. We always line the container one or even two protective liners....

[@lizziebee315]

@@FlowerSchoolThank you for replying. Lizzie.

[@FlowerSchool]

You are very welcome, Lizzie!

[@Karinistalove]

This is sooo unbelievably beautiful 😍😍😍 I want to create something similar for my wedding centerpieces. Can you tell me how many roses, greens and other flowers I need approximately for such a centerpiece? I find it really hard to appreciate how many I have to buy 😔

[@FlowerSchool]

I'm glad that you enjoyed this. While I don't have a recipe for this centerpiece, it is possible to count the blossoms and foliages in the photo. Estimating the flowers needed for a design is always challenging. When I have to do 50 centerpieces for an event, I make a sample arrangement first, then count the flowers and foliages used, then place an order for product. If I am making a single design for myself, I always over-buy. This give me extra flowers to enjoy in my home. Enjoy!

[@moniqueaustin7634]

very pretty ,thank you

[@FlowerSchool]

You're Welcome

[@cynthiaelesevandyke-melcho1864]

Thanks 😊

[@FlowerSchool]

We appreciate the time you are taking to watch so many of our videos, Cynthia! Thank for spending time with us on fabulous floral design. It's delightful to host you and we would enjoy seeing you again soon. Sending you flowers galore!

[@katcarothers]

What gauge aluminum wire do you use? Thanks for the video btw!

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank you very much for watching our show, Katherine. We are glad you could join us!

[@sthu713]

What is the name of the green leaves that you're using in the arrangement? Thank you!

[@FlowerSchool]

+Steve Huynh We used the "Fresh Greenery Wedding Flower Combo" from FiftyFlowers.com. Following is the link; www.fiftyflowers.com/product/Fresh-Greenery-Wedding-Flower-Combo_274.htm

[@heatherbanks9086]

You are getting better more natural not so fake

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank You....

[@yvonnemcmillan9702]

Beautiful but volume too low on video

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank you for your kind praise, Yvonne, and for letting us know about the volume. Sometimes the issue is the volume control within the video and when you turn that up, the sound is perfect. We appreciate your watching our show, and hope we'll see you again for more fabulous floral design.

[@despinaladengast2215]

Wunderschön

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank you!

[@lynnegarcia3585]

Hi Leanne, I have a compote that is 8 inches wide on pedestal and is 7 inches high.. what would the maximum length and height for an arrangement.. they will be placed on 6 ft tables for a wedding .. thank you Lynne

[@FlowerSchool]

Hello Lynne! For centerpieces you do not want the height to be taller than your elbow on the table, this way guests can see across the table and carry on a conversation. Correct proportions are 2-3 times the height and width of the container. So you could go as tall as 21" or as wide as 24". Happy Flowering!

[@최자작나무-t3y]

너무 예뻐요~~ Good~~~♡♡♡

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank You......

[@PrincessOfTheUniverz]

how do you keep the dusty miller from wilting?

[@FlowerSchool]

+MaiLife Wilting can be a problem with Duty Miller. In this design we used full stalks of well hydrated foliage placed in water other than foam. Refer to the video "Romantic Tussie Mussie Styled Bridal Bouquet" for additional tips on Dusty Miller care.

[@PrincessOfTheUniverz]

+FlowerSchool Thank you for answering. I was trying to research the best way for a bridal bouquet I am attempting to make in a couple weeks. It's fairly warm in Texas, and I can just see it dying before the end of the day.

[@MonicaGriego4]

What is the other greenery? Not the ruscus.

[@FlowerSchool]

That's a great question, Monica! We used the "Fresh Greenery Wedding Flower Combo" from FiftyFlowers.com. Here is the link: www.fiftyflowers.com/product/Fresh-Greenery-Wedding-Flower-Combo_274.htm Hope this helps and thanks for watching our show!

[@kortneeh6315]

where did you get this vase?

[@FlowerSchool]

I wish that I could give you an answer. I have hundreds of vases and containers, many of which are very old and I can't remember where they came from. A good source for this kind of container would be Accent Decor. www.accentdecor.com

[@Mrchakichu]

好棒👍真美！

[@FlowerSchool]

Thank You.....

[@jduff35]

How would you deliver this?

[@FlowerSchool]

+Joseph Barnes The design is very stable and can be delivered like any arrangement. However, water will have to be added after delivery.

[@diytom3448]
