Flowers & Crystals: Decor Ideas Page 3
Crystal Floral Stand
 This project was done using pink and cream colored hydrangeas and mauve cymbidium orchids. The arrangement sits atop one of our tall Swarovski Crystal floral stands.
The Floral stands are 26" tall (arrangment will add another 1' - 2' to the height). Crystal Floral Stands are available in Bronze Brown, Satin Gold, Satin Silver and Black Onyx, however, you can also paint them custom colors such as White, Off-White etc. The crystals hanging below the arrangement are 20mm and 24mm Swarovski Lead Free Crystals.
Floral arrangement was made using a floral foam brick. Simply soack the brick in water mixed with flower food before inserting the cut ends of your flower stems. To hold the brick in the bottom of the metal stand dish, use a frog (plastic, pronged piece) to hold the foam in the top dish. Can also be done using a florist foam cage or styrofoam if using silk flowers.
Single or Double Arrangements
Place Floral Arrangements in the top 8" round dish or in the top dish and atop or around the wide 10" base. Candles look gorgeous around the base as well.
Make Sparkling Decorations like this for:
Buffet Tables Guest Tables Bride's Table Cake Table or Guest Book Table Either Side of an Altar (on pedestal or small table)
Make "Tree Like" Table Centerpieces
Branches can also be added to the floral arrangement placed in the top dish. Placing a tall or short branch in the center of the floral arrangement and 2 or 3 other branches coming off the sides can be beautiful. If you need these exact floral stands which include the fine crystal ropes, just click on the picture or on the Floral Stands link in the left navigation bar of our site.
Floral Arrangement with Hanging Crystals
This floral arrangement (Photography by Rebecca) was done using a variety of flowers, branches, dyed ostrich feathers and finished off with just a few ropes of hanging crystals. On the end of each crystal chain, is a large glass crystal teardrop shape or almond shape (same thing), approximately 50mm in size.
Which Crystals to Use
You can create this look by using our fine Ethereal crystal meter long chains and separating them into varied lengths by removing one connector. On the ends, hang our Ethereal Quality 50mm Glass Teardrops. For more amazing sparkle, use all Lead Free Glass Swarovski crystal chains in 16mm or 14mm size and with our fine Swarovski teardrop in 50mm size on the ends or substitute with our Fine Ethereal Quality 50mm teardrop on the ends.
The quality of our Ethereal Teardrop is high enough quality to mix in with the fine Swarovski crystal chains. For crystal chains, visit our Crystal Chains & Ropes Page and for the Loose end crystals, visit our Loose Crystals Page. |
