Preparing materials: Cut artificial flowers
Start by cutting the artificial flowers to the desired length. Use a side cutter to cut the flower strands neatly and achieve the desired length for your arrangement.
Prepare the garlands: Cutting and bundling
Take three strands of the twig garland and cut them in half. Make sure that the cuts are clean and that the ends can be easily utilised. Lay the halved strands on top of each other so that the ends are offset. This will give you a more voluminous bundle that looks more natural. Secure the garland strands with a decorative ribbon, which you tie into a pretty bow.
Incorporate additional natural materials
You can integrate a few strands of forsythia branches, decorative willow or pussy willow into the bundle as you wish. These elements will add charm and a spring touch to your arrangement.
Attachment to the base: the bark disc
Now prepare a slice of bark as the base for your arrangement. Attach the garland bundle to it using hot glue. The hot glue ensures that everything holds well and remains stable.
Embellish with moss and decorative elements
Now you can pluck a little sheet moss and glue it into the bundle. This gives the decoration more volume and a natural look. Complete your creation with small decorative willow strands and stick a few decorative eggs between the branches. They symbolise spring and rebirth.
Additional accent: forsythia blossoms
If you want a little extra colour, you can add individual forsythia flowers to your arrangement last. These little splashes of colour will make your work unique and lively.
