Styling essentials - vases for Spring and Summer florals, The Camellia, Thunder Bay.

Flowers have the ability to cheer us up, especially at this time when fears of COVID-19 and its spread around the World have led to feelings of alarm and anxiety. We need to stay calm, and Flowers can certainly help us do that. White, Cream and green are classic Spring and Summer colours. March is the perfect time to change out your Winter blooms to something lighter, like the Flowers in the above photo.

There are so many different shapes and sizes of Vases. These tall ones showcase these sculptural branches with spring magnolia blooms. White vases go with everything, and can be moved into other rooms.

A great article to read is Heather Bullard's take on this topic of Vases: https://heatherbullard.com/blog/2019/12/styling-essentials-vases
Take a look around your home, what kind of vases do you have laying around, perhaps gathering dust in a forgotten corner?

Once you've selected your vase, then you will need proper mechanics for anchoring your stems, such as twigs and branches, moss, water, floral foam, etc. Not sure where to start? Take a Floral Workshop here at The Camellia, where you will learn Creative Floral Design, incorporating Dutch Floral design techniques.
