How to make a floral wedding guest chair

Step 1: Build your Base

We must first construct the framework for our floral designs.

Cut the floral foam into two blocks, each about 4 inches long, to do this. Then, wrap the mesh wire around each block. Finally, trim any extra wire from the blocks' sides.

Step 2: Attach your Base to the Chair

After building your base, it's time to fasten them to your preferred chair.

Attach the bases of the flower arrangements to two chair legs in opposing corners. Trim any extra ties and arrange the bases so they appear balanced.

After you're happy with the arrangement, fasten the floral foam base to the chair by passing the cable ties through the mesh wire.

Step 3: Create the Shape with Pampas Grass

Sorting your two Designer Flower Boxes into lighter and darker hues should be your first step.

It's simple to insert the Pampas Grass for the base. Keep in mind that the grass shouldn't be the main attraction; rather, it should give your wedding guest chair shape and substance.

Assume you are constructing a gigantic animated sun: let the grass extend from the floral foam core. By utilizing fewer, shorter pieces on one side and more full, lush, and long pieces on the other, you can avoid having the arrangement appear unduly symmetrical.

Tip: To ensure that your Pampas Grass stands upright and reaches upward, keep it near the ground.

Step 4: Add Flowers

The exciting part is about to begin: putting flowers!

To ensure that you completely cover the foam bases with blossoms, begin with the lighter hues while standing in front of them. To produce a natural, handmade feel, be careful to vary the distance between flowers.

Then, embellish your arrangement with the darker flowers. Arrange the blossoms equally around the base, just as you did with the lighter flowers. Ensure that the bloom's core is facing forth and upward. Use flower stems of varying lengths, strewn high and low, to give your arrangement depth.

Step 5: Finishing Touches

Any effective floral arrangement relies heavily on subtle, tasteful elements. Without drawing too much attention to themselves, they enhance their overall beauty. Pay close attention to these small touches while decorating your guest chair wedding.

Allow the longer leaves to fan out as you evenly place the small decorative leaves from the Designer Flower Boxes throughout the arrangements. Make sure the flower placement is natural and adjust any places that are too symmetrical.
