Using only one material can be difficult to achieve a balance within the arrangement, but all of them were beautiful! I especially liked the orange color of the calla lilies. It made it feel very fall like.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15422840991967774626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-397501188605731592.post-60965079846087518562013-11-09T00:45:12.814+01:002013-11-09T00:45:12.814+01:00Dear Lennart,

Mr Umemura told us recently that to create tighter curves in lily stems first to curve them by pulling them through our hands, leave them overnight in water to make them firm again. Then repeat the curving process.<br /><br />Regards,<br />ChristopherChristopher Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16765329999398356586noreply@blogger.com
