Homemade Orchid Centerpieces
- 1). Create a horizontal flower arrangement. Pick a shallow container and add the plant foam inside. Size three fuchsia cattleya orchids in decreasing lengths with the tallest cut to the length of the container. Group the three orchids together in the left side of the foam and set the dracaena leaves next to the orchids. Insert the pink dendrobium orchids down the length of the container covering the foam. Stick greenery around the outskirts of the design.
- 2). Fill the bottom of a medium square vase with silk orchids anchored by pearl glass beads. Add the water. Gather white-colored orchids and group them in a circular display above the vase. Surround the vase with tapered white candles.
- 3). Cut bamboo stalks into a straight line and wrap them with a banana or palm leaf. Stick the stalks into a medium-sized rectangular vase, Place two bright yellow cymbidium orchids in the front just above the lip of the vase. Add tiny bits of greenery around the orchids.
- 4). Add river rocks to one large cylinder vase and cover the bottom fourth of the vase with water. Anchor one tall stalk of a tropical orchid holding several flowering buds inside the vase. Scatter pebbles around the vase.
- 5). Place soaked plant foam into a white wicker basket. Arrange blue roses on the left side of the basket. Allow the roses and greenery to reach the top of the handles on the left. Add a single black pearl orchid off-center on the bottom of the basket next to the lip on both sides of the basket. Cut the orchid height to be larger than the roses on the right, but smaller than the roses on the left. Place three blue rose buds on the right side. Fill in empty space with eucalyptus leaves.
