- Place centerpiece flowers evenly.
- Add filler flowers around the centerpiece.
- Incorporate greenery for texture.
Step 4: Adding Personal Touches
Enhance your arrangements with embellishments:
- Wrap floral tape around stems for a polished look.
- Add ribbons or lace tied at the neck of vases.

Step 5: Finalizing the Arrangement
Once you’re satisfied with the arrangement, place them in desired locations.
