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....
