Handmade floral arrangement with pinecones

in #hive-1503293 years ago

This is my second floral arrangement. I just go with the flow when I create, no matter what. This was a thoughtful gift for a friend and I wanted to include something from nature in it.

I decided that I would take pinecones from the natural park and little pebbles and include them in the arrangement.

I used a hot glue gun to attach all the tiny pebbles onto the leaves. I figured that it would give a personal touch to this little floral gift.

I find it highly therapeutic to create something with my own hands. and have no limitations when it comes to the creative concept. It's liberating to create something from scratch and then watch the final result unravel in front of your eyes.

I was proud to make this knowing that my creation is unique and no one could ever find something similar to buy in a flower shop.

I managed to understand why this type of arrangements are pricey. The fake flowers cost a lot and it is a tedious job to glue them all together around the wreath.

My friend really loved the gift because of the pinecones . She lives abroad and having this wreath with cones taken straight from the forest reminds her of home. It is like knowing you took a little part of Romania with you.

I feel blessed to have these tiny hands and the capability to use my mind and create pretty much anything. Almost every morning when I wake up I take a longer and closer look to my hands and stand in awe knowing how much I created with them. It is truly a miracle really....

I think it's really beautiful! I also made a lot of these back in the days, especially for Christmas and I can agree with you that art and creating are indeed therapeutic.

You are very creative and really good at it. That is really amazing and filled with tender love and care.

Thank you very much🤗

I know this feeling well and it is a beautiful opportunity to see.

I love this long lasting alternative and it’s very beautiful :)

A handmade souvenir. Nice job.

Have a nice day. All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.

Thank you, greetings to you too from Romania!

So the green and flowers are artificial but you added real pinecones and pebbles to it? What a great idea, now this will last forever!

Yes, I took a simple green wreath and I have build the arrangement around it. I also used wire next to glue in order to make it a long lasting arrangement. The pebbles and pinecones are real and they add a more organic vibe to the whole thing. It will definetely last forever, it is a great alternative to real floral arrangements which , unfortunately, do not last.

Glad to know that your friend liked the gift for pinecones and this really looks very beautiful, thanks for sharing with us.

She really loved it, her smile was the best reward for the time invested in creating this! Thank you🤗

my pleasure, its true that the smile of our dearest one is priceless. Hope your friendship will remain alive forever.

How nice! That's a therapeutic thing for you, no doubt, because it looks so pretty. 😋🤗
