Pruning method of flower material in flower arrangement

The most important part of flower pruning and flower arrangement is pruning from the beginning to the last moment when the work is finished. How to choose is also the first problem that novices encounter. Just like the tailoring of clothes, it determines whether clothes fit or not.

Natural flowers must be good at pruning if they want to express their beauty incisively and vividly and conform to their own ideas. Pay attention to the following points when pruning.

1, let it be. Look at the branches carefully, observe which branches are expressive, which branches are the most beautiful, and cut off the rest.

2. Leave only one branch parallel to the same direction, and cut off the rest to avoid monotony.

3. From the front, the overlapping branches and cross branches at close range should be cut off appropriately to make them light, changeable, lively and uncomplicated.

4. The length of branches depends on the environment, the size of flowers and the needs of composition.

5, in the whole process of planting, we should carefully observe, all the redundant branches that hinder composition and creative expression should be cut off.

6, grass flowers with sharp scissors, easy to insert under the knot. Woody trees should be cut obliquely. When cutting willow and peach branches, the blade should be parallel to the branches, leaving no incision, while plum and papaya should be perpendicular to the branches.

7, in addition to thorns, some flowers (such as roses, etc. ) all have thorns, so it is advisable to remove the thorns before inserting them. You can use a thorn remover or a knife to remove the thorns.

8. For the disabled, the flowers are incomplete and should be trimmed. The outer petals of Chinese rose flowers are often uneven in color and burnt, and 2-3 pieces should be peeled.

Bending modeling and bending method of flower materials

Plants that grow naturally are often unsatisfactory. In order to express the beauty of the curve and make it full of freshness, it is often necessary to do some manual processing, which requires the flower arranger to make up for his congenital deficiency with fine bending skills.

Modern flower arrangement bends flowers into various shapes for the need of modeling, so the skill of bending modeling is also the dividing line of flower arrangement height. The method and key points of curve bifurcation modeling are described as follows.

1, branch bending method

The intersection of branches, buds and branches is easy to break, so it should be avoided and bent between the two sections. Some easily broken branches can be slightly twisted when bent. According to the thickness and hardness of the branches, the methods used are also different.

A, the thick trunk can be sawed with a saw or a knife to cut a gap of 1-2, with thick branches at a depth of 1/3- 1/2, and embedded with a small wedge to force it to bend. As Shen Fu said, "The way to bend a broken stem is to cut off half of its stem, and then embed it with masonry, so the straight stem will bend. If the stalk falls, knock one or two nails to control it. "

B, the branches are hard and not easy to bend. You can hold the flower branch with both hands, put your arm against your body, and press your thumb on the part to be bent. Pay attention to put your hands together, so as to effectively control the strength, and bend down slowly and forcefully, otherwise it will break easily. If the branches are brittle and easy to break, you can soak the bent parts in hot water (or add some vinegar), and then bend them in cold water immediately. For branches with many flowers and leaves, the flowers and leaves should be wrapped and covered, and they should be baked directly on the fire for 2-3 minutes at a time, repeatedly until the branches are soft enough to bend to the required angle, and then put into cold water for setting.

C, soft branches are easy to bend, such as branches such as silver willow and forsythia. Put your two thumbs where you need to bend, and slowly shake the branches.

D, slender branches such as asparagus can be used for herbaceous flower branches. You can hold the grass stalk in place with your right hand and twist it with your left hand to bend it into the desired shape.

2. Blade bending modeling

A, soft leaves can be gently twitched in your fingers, and will bend after repeated several times, or they can be tightly wound and then let go of bending.

B, the leaves show unnatural shapes, which can be fixed with pins, staples or transparent tape, or torn into various shapes by hand.

3, the application of iron wire

It is also a common method to combine or bend with iron wire. Especially when making corsage or bouquet, the use of iron wire is more common. Some flower stems, such as gladiolus, gerbera, etc., are not easy to bend, so iron wires can be inserted into the stems and then slowly bent into the required angle.
