Handmade Paper Flower Bouquet
Hand-dyed blooms in zingy orange form this beautiful three-stem bouquet by Pulp Flowers. Handmade in Crystal Palace by Kristina Bowers.
While Kristina’s flowers are presented in a particular arrangement, she encourages experimenting with combinations and colours. Don’t be afraid to bend the stems and play with the arrangements once unboxed. These are taped together as a trio but can be separated into single stems or mixed with her other flowers to create a colour-clashing coterie.
These flowers look their best in narrow necked vases and vessels, but you can also play with chickenwire or pop some floral clay in the bottom of a vase to help style them. Stems can be bent and shaped for your display. You can also shorten the stem by trimming with wire cutters. Just make sure that the cutters are sharp so they don’t tear the paper covering the wire stem.
Care information:
Sunlight: Like all coloured papers, if left for prolonged periods in direct sunlight the flowers will fade.
Dust control: A neat trick to deal with gathered dust on your blooms is to blow a hairdryer on cool setting whilst simultaneously holding a vacuum cleaner!
