This summer I was invited by Marginpar to create a series of designs that celebrate the magic of summer with flowers. With their magnificent flowers, I have created a collection of luxurious designs for the interior and garden that each tells a story. A story of summer, and how I love this season.
I hope you have already seen (and liked!) my first two blogs about the summer theme: designs #1 and #2 in 'Paradise by the Water' and designs #3 and #4 in 'My Summery Bouquets With Natural Textures and Soft Shades'. Because in the last blog for this year, I will show you even three sunny pieces!
Design #5: Time Machine
'Time machine' 😊 or a flower ring instead of a photo wall.
Today, I begin with two circular artworks featuring soft pink Scabiosa Bon Bon Scoop™ French Vanilla and purple-blue Clematis Amazing® Oslo. This is followed by a decorative screen in soft tones with Scabiosa, Clematis Amazing® Miami, and the feathery blooms of the smokebush. The screen’s transparent effect is achieved by wrapping ribbons around a thin frame.
This is a special set for a modern-themed wedding or event. You can take really nice photos in front of this. I bound lots of wool cord, wire, and paper-wired pieces to the base. LOTS OF PIECES! Then we fixed the flower heads (Clematis, Astrantia) with floral glue onto the end of the wires.
In the other piece of the set, we used three types of cords, yarns and wool cords. I connected the middle circle and the outer circle with the materials so that they constantly cross each other. Then I fixed the flower heads (Scabiosa, Astrantia, Clematis, Aster) with floral glue and sprayed with the Finishing Touch floral spray.
Design #6: Ring-Ring…
I have also crafted a matching circular masterpiece using Eryngium Magnetar Questar®, smokebush, and Miscanthus White Cloud. The interplay of cool and warm tones in these designs is reminiscent of the sea and the shore, which makes the table decoration exude a natural vibe.
First, I bound wool scarf pieces, and wool cords next to each other to the iron base, I highlighted it with Cotinus flowers and then I glued Eryngium heads tightly among the wool pieces and sprayed it with Finishing Touch.
Altogether, you can see in the colors that this is a design for a late summer, because of the combination of warm and cool. Now, it's almost October but still comfortable outside, so a perfect timing for this piece.
Design #7: Flower Wall: Reinvented
What do you see here? Let your imagination run wild a bit and you may see a romantic flower wall. This artwork is a perfect screen to put in a room dividing one part from another. Imagine you are designing for a wedding and you can create this as a backdrop, bringing a blend of contemporary elegance and natural beauty to the space.
This floral design is a beautiful and minimalist display that plays with both space and texture in a visually intriguing way. The standout feature is the use of thin, vertical ribbons or strings that hang in parallel lines, creating a subtle partition. It has a structured yet delicate feel, with the soft colors of the flowers breaking the uniformity of the ribbons.
I love this work very much. I bound a couple of types of thin silk ribbons, cords, and yarns into the iron frame. I used huge glass tubes that I fixed with other ribbons on both sides of the stander. I put the nice summer-styled flowers from Marginpar (Delphinium, Clematis, Scabiosa) into the tubes and I complemented it with some of Cotinus flowers.
The florals themselves are arranged in glass vials attached to the strings, which adds an element of suspended lightness. The mix of airy blooms combined with touches of green provides a nice balance between organic flow and structured form. The neutral color palette of whites, soft pinks, and greens makes this design versatile for different settings, while the ribbons help create a modern, almost architectural backdrop.
