Instructions

Prep Your Container & Foam

  • Start by placing your floral foam inside your container.
  • If needed, secure it with a little hot glue.
  • Gently place spongy moss over the foam

Add the Orchid Leaves

  • Take your large leaf bundle, trim it close to where it’s wired.
  • Hot glue it to the center of the foam.
  • Shape them to mimic real orchid leaves for that natural, high-end look.

Shape & Place Your Orchids

  • Grab your four orchid stems and start shaping them by running your fingers along the wire.
  • Stick the first orchid in the foam as your focal point.
  • Trim the second orchid a little shorter and place it at a different height.
  • Add the last two orchids, making sure to angle one towards the back for dimension.

Fill in with Greenery

  • Take each fern piece, push it up to fluff it out.
  • Glue it around the edges of your arrangement.
