Bloom Basics: Start with the Essentials
Creating a fall garland with fresh-cut flowers is a beautiful way to elevate your home’s decor.
Think of roses, mums, and eucalyptus—all autumn staples that can be sourced from bulk wedding flowers providers like GlobalRose. Here’s what you’ll need:
- Garland base: Flexible vine, twine, or wire.
- Floral wire: To secure everything in place.
- Seasonal blooms: Roses, mums, and eucalyptus are ideal.
- Extras: Pinecones, ribbon, or mini pumpkins for fall accents.
Trimming your flowers is essential.
Trim stems to 4-6 inches and remove lower leaves for secure flower attachment to your garland base.
Perfect Palette: Match the Season
Fall is all about embracing warm tones and rich textures. When crafting your garland, think about the balance of your colors. Oranges, deep reds, and gold are classic fall shades that pair beautifully with autumn decor.
For a chic DIY fall decor look, incorporate dried flowers, or even trendy accents like pampas grass, which is a current hit in wedding floral design.
Try placing the largest blooms at focal points, such as the center, or at regular intervals along the garland for symmetry.
You can then layer smaller flowers and filler elements like berries or twigs.
Fresh Factor: Keep It Alive and Vibrant
The trick to keeping fresh-cut flowers looking lively in a garland is simple to care. Whether it’s for your mantel, dining table, or doorway, follow these tips:
- Mist: Lightly spray your garland with water every few days.
- Water change: If using a water-based arrangement, change the water frequently.
- Cool placement: Keep your garland in a cool, shaded area to avoid wilting.
By ensuring your flowers are re-cut every few days, they’ll continue to absorb water, prolonging the life of your display.
Fall Accents: Add Finishing Touches
No fall garland is complete without a few seasonal accessories.
Adding pinecones, ribbons, acorns, or even mini pumpkins will help bring out the autumn vibe. Here are a few trendy ways to level up your DIY design:
- Pinecones: Attach them using floral wire for a rustic look.
- Ribbon: Choose fall tones, like burgundy or gold, to tie your arrangement together.
- Mini pumpkins: Small gourds can be woven into the garland or displayed alongside for extra flair.
You can also take inspiration from current wedding decor trends, which are seeing a rise in natural, organic elements such as dried florals, hypericum berries, and textured materials like rattan.
