These handmade blooms by David Stark Design are as unexpected as they are elegant—and they’re a cinch to make using basic tools and materials. “Planted” in a pot or vintage vessel, these works of art make a chic centerpiece or a fabulous gift for your bridal party that can be displayed long after your big day is over.
THE TOOLS
- Plastic sandwich bags
- White sand
- White floral tape
- Double-sided crepe paper in the color of your choice
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun and sticks
- Wire cutters
- White-wrapped floral wire (preferably 22 gauge)
- Vessel of your choice
HOW-TO
1. Fill a sandwich bag with about 1/4 cup of sand. Wrap just above the sand with white floral tape.
2. Cut several strips of crepe paper (about 3/4-inch wide)against the grain of the paper. Wrap the “bulb” with the strips, hot gluing where needed. Pull the paper taught as you work.
