Study level: 2 and 3

Style: Eastern arrangement, decorative.

Description:
This arrangement is published in the book Bloemschikken voor de winterse feestdagen. (Flower arranging for the feasts of winter time) 

We need for this lesson:

• A low container.

• Oasis, about 1 / 1,5 bread.

• Pinus green.

• Hedera leaves.

• Pillow moss, sheet moss or white stones.

Step by step:

1. We connect oasis in the container and give it the shape of a half cone form. The better you do this the more easy it is to have a perfect shape later with the flowers.
2. Make little bundles of the Pinus needles, do this with metal wire. Put them closely together in the oasis. 
3. Put in the Narcissus together with some leaves. The daffodils are arranged partly around the Pinus.
4. Put on the side of the Pinus just above the edge of the container a group Hedera leaves.
5. Finally you put some moss or small white stones aside the daffodils.

Materials used are: Pinus nigra, Narcissus, Hedera and pillow moss.
