[@ellenfrostflowers]

Thanks so much for watching. Do you do much floral arranging? Have you tried a hand tied bouquet before?

[@Pink_berry_farms]

This is best video I seen on this yet thank you so much for showing up close

[@ellenfrostflowers]

Thanks so much! Do you make many hand-tied bouquets?

[@Pink_berry_farms]

I try but mine done look like that they are straight up and down

[@Pink_berry_farms]

@@ellenfrostflowers are you always making an x with stems or stems all going the same

Great presentation of how to accomplish a natural gather of flower stems❤

[@ellenfrostflowers]

Thanks so much for watching!

It is the turning that I find really difficult!

[@ellenfrostflowers]

The turning is so tricky! It gets better with practice!

[@tiffanyhayden-yx8ip]

It’s the 1/4 turn that gets me. My brain wants to turn 1/2. I’m going to cut some buckets and sit out back to practice.

[@janehilbery6596]

I have been practising all week, really getting there with the turning!

[@ellenfrostflowers]

YES! it definitely get's easier with practice!

This was really helpful as a home gardener getting into flower arranging- thanks!

[@ellenfrostflowers]

I'm so glad you found this helpful! Flower arranging is such a fun hobby! Be sure to check my other design videos for beginners.

[@ssayre785]

The content you share is just amazing! I’m very excited to try this.

[@ellenfrostflowers]

Let me know how it goes! it's hard when you first get started but it gets easier with practice.

[@lesliem3]

This was so helpful! I would love to know how you end the ribbon on your bouquets when it is not tied in a bow.

[@ellenfrostflowers]

I just made a video showing how we finish bouquets. It will be out next week!

[@serenababy6358]

Great video!

[@ellenfrostflowers]

Thanks so much for watching! Do you ever make hand-tied bouquets?

[@serenababy6358]

@@ellenfrostflowers not yet. I tend to toss my flowers in a vase and eyeball it.

[@tiffanyhayden-yx8ip]

Thanks for this demonstration. Do you continue to put the stems in the shape of an x and it fills in or the stems are all going the same direction?

[@ellenfrostflowers]

yes! Keep the X placement to ensure the bouquet keeps the spiral. If you want to add a couple of stems at the end through the middle- that shouldn't impact the spiral.

@@ellenfrostflowers thank you!!

What do you source/offer in the winter months being in the north, as am I, besides winter greens?

[@ellenfrostflowers]

thanks for asking! here is an article about what we do in the winter. We have worked to put together a group of local growers who grow in the winter. Where are you located? www.botanicalbrouhaha.com/seasons-change-how-a-local-only-florist-works-in-the-winter/

Arms down toward hips, tilt bouquet out. 💐

[@ellenfrostflowers]

[@memethomas5402]

Im growing over 200 rhizomes of variegated Solomon seal

[@ellenfrostflowers]

Amazing! They'll spread to so you should have lots to work with!

[@tiffanyhayden-yx8ip]

My farming mentor sent me a box of the good stuff, maybe have 25 plants, excited for them to multiply.
