Arrangements And Their Prices

Here are some fun cooler pieces I made.

This arrangement came to about 75 to 85 dollars.



This arrangement came to about 65 to 75 dollars.




This arrangement came to about 90 to 100 dollars.

Lemon Wedding

This Wedding was fun to work on because we used lemons in the arrangements. Here is an example of some of the centerpieces that I helped arrange.

More Creativity

Here is an arrangement that I made using Daulias and Liatrus. I made the Laitrus bend to make it a little more eye-catching.



Here is a 75 dollar Topiary arrangement that I made for an order going to a mother who just had a baby girl.

Spicing Things Up

This day I also got tired of making every Topiary with a clay pot. Lucky for me, a customer wanted a different kind of container other than in a clay pot. So I made a really fun topiary with this purple container.

July 1st

This day, Mark let me make another Standby arrangement but this time I had to make it look different from the last one I made. This time, I wanted to be more creative and come up with something more unique. This is what I arranged.



On this same day, I made a Roundy Moundy using hanging ameranthus and curly willow.

Another Purple Wedding

With this wedding, I was able to help with making the centerpieces. These Roundy Moundies turned out to be exotic and elegant looking. These centerpieces were kind of tricky just because they were just really full.

Working with Color

On this day, we got an order for 100 dollars requesting that the arrangement was mostly purple with some yellow. Mark let me take care of this arrangement which was a little challenging because in the cooler we had tons of yellow and very little purple, but this is what I came up with.

Griding

Robert, once again managed the store Wednesday, and because he saw the design that I had made at the Main store using a grid. He let me make one of the Standing arrangements. Every Blooming Thing Standing arrangements are arrangements that we display at businesses for advertisement. Usually, because the arrangement is being advertised, Every Blooming Thing likes to make it look really showy and eye-catching. I was really excited to finally have the opportunity to get really creative and see what I could come up with. So I decided to make another grid by using Curly Willow.



Here is a picture showing the grid I made from the back.


Because this particular arrangement was going to GoodWood Barbeque, I made the arrangement look really organic and rustic looking by using Sunflowers and moss.

Purple Wedding

I got the opportunity to help with another wedding even though it wasn’t that big of a wedding, I still had fun doing it. I made little Roundy Moundies with these little tin cans.

The Grand America Set Up

Finally we started loading the arrangements in the vans around 9:30. I took my car and followed the delivery van. When we arrived at the Grand America we started loading up the arrangements onto this cart.

Before we could place the arrangements on the tables, we first had to dry the containers and put ribbon on some of the centerpieces. There were five different centerpieces which made it a little tricky when placing them on the table by making sure one of the same arrangements were not next to each other.






After placing the arrangements, this is what the final result was.

June 19th

On this particular Saturday I worked at the Main store in Salt Lake City. I was to help with a set-up this day for a convention at the Grand America but before we loaded up, I had time to do some more cooler arrangements. Liz, one of Every Blooming Thing’s designers, taught me how to make a grid with my arrangements. After showing me, she just told me to go for it and make an arrangement that was more contemporary and different. So that’s what I did, I practically closed my eyes and went for it. I came up with this arrangement.



And this is a closer look of the Grid I made in the back. I used the Grid to help the arrangement hold up the flowers.


After making this arrangement, I had time to make another arrangement before we left to go on the set. Liz challenged me again by wanting me to make a Roundy Moundy more creative and different. I came up with this.



Both of these arrangements helped me to realize that I have more in me than I give myself credit for. Liz really inspired me to get me more excited with the arrangements that I make and helped me to realize that we are artists making art.

Top Heavy

With this particular "Topiary" as much as it looks very nice, it made me learn an important lesson...




After I made this large arrangement, it went out the door to be delivered only to be brought back when the driver said it kept tipping over because it was too top heavy. Mark helped me fix it so that the arrangement would stay secure. I just learned an important lesson that day. I learned that I need to consider not only visual balance but physical balance as well.

Creative Ways to Use Moss

Over this internship, Robert has shown me ways to make my arrangements more creative. Here are some examples of creative ways that I have used moss.

With this "Roundy Moundy", Robert taught me how to have moss not just on the top of the container, but all over the container using this spray glue.



With this "Topiary" I used moss instead of ribbon to go around the flowers.




In this vase arrangement, I used moss around the base to make the design more creative.



Here is another arrangement I designed using moss.
