Hi! I’m Joette from the Bowdabra Design Team, here with another tip from the florist for you! Today, I’m excited to show you how to create a beautiful dollar store Cemetery arrangement, made entirely in the Bowdabra. What’s great about this arrangement is that it doesn’t require floral foam, making it both easy and eco-friendly.
As an added bonus, this floral arrangement can also be attached without the saddle, by using waterproof towel hooks instead! So not only is this arrangement easy and eco-friendly, but it’s also versatile and can be customized to your preference. Let’s get started on creating a beautiful Cemetery Headstone Saddle arrangement, using the Bowdabra.
For this DIY Cemetery Saddle tutorial, you will need the following materials:
100-Yard Bowdabra Bow Wire
Large Bowdabra
Greenery Picks, Floral Bush, Yellow Lily Picks, Yellow Fillers, Purple Floral Pick
Here’s how to create your own Cemetery floral arrangement:
1. Fold the Bowdabra Bow Wire in half, place it down into the Bowdabra and tuck it underneath.
2. Lay down a few pieces of greenery, a floral bush, big yellow lily picks, more greenery, yellow fillers, and purple floral picks into the Bowdabra.
3. Secure the arrangement with Bowdabra Bow Wire using the slipknot method, leaving the flowers still in the Bowdabra. Then, separate the loose ends of the wires, pull them to the backside of the arrangement, tie several knots in the back, and finish off by fluffing and shaping out the flowers.
4. Finally, attach the cemetery Headstone floral arrangement to the bars of the wire saddle form with zip ties.
And there you have it! Your very own DIY dollar store Cemetery arrangement .
