Modern spring design with wool felt accent

Modern Spring design with wool felt accent

I love experimenting with different types of texture. When I found some wool felt fabrics in various colors, I knew I could do something original with it. I inspired myself from a design created by Geert Pattyn, a very talented floral master from Belgium. It was a lot of fun creating these "discs" of felt that complemented my choice of flowers. The flowers were inserted inside the base in short water tubes.

Not only this design looks stunning and cheerful, but it also requires a limited amount of blooms. Thanks to the use of water tubes, you can rearrange the placement of the stems every time you change your flowers. The only word of caution is to make sure to fill the water tubes daily. The use of a wash bottle is of great help here!
