Constructing a Three Bloom

Bud Vase

Step 1: Selecting Materials

  • 3 long-stemmed roses or carnations
  • 5 stems of leatherleaf fern
  • 1 ½ yards of #3 satin ribbon
  • 2 20-22 gauge florist wires
  • 1 stem of baby’s breath
  • Leaf polish
  • A large-necked bud vase
  • Floral preservative

Step 3: Inserting the Flowers

  • Insert the flowers in the bud vase.
  • Place the smallest flower in the center, facing up.
  • Stagger the medium flower off to one side of the smallest flower.
  • Stagger the largest flower off to the opposite side of the medium flower.
  • Gradually face the middle and bottom flowers toward the viewer.

Step 4: Preparing the Fern

  • Select two pieces of fern and hold them so that the backs of the fern face each other (image #1).
  • Bring the two pieces of fern together so that the curves are straightened out (image #2).
  • Spray the best piece of fern with the leaf polish.
  • The best piece of fern should be an inch or two longer than the other.

Step 6: Insert the Filler Flowers

  • Insert the baby’s

breath so that it

surrounds the

carnation.

  • It shouldn’t overwhelm

the carnation.

  • One full piece of baby’s

breath may not be

required.

Step 7: Finishing the Vase

  • Make a bow using the # satin ribbon.
  • Attach the bow to a wooden pick and insert the pick into the vase so that the bow will be located centrally above the rim of the vase.
  • Add a cardette if desired and refrigerate.
