O.K., you have your flowers and you are ready to get started, you may be asking, “Now What?”  Brides and Blooms has compiled the following information, to set your mind at ease.

Firstly, make sure you have protective eyewear and gloves. When working with flowers you may wind up with cuts on your hands, or may damage your manicure. The rest of the information is more mechanical than creative.

Go ahead, get started, we know you’ll do just fine. Always use a clean bucket to put your flowers into as you are preparing them. Avoid using metal containers. Use fresh cool water with floral food. Gather all the other materials you will need by preparing your flowers as described they will last longer and look more attractive. Remember to use clean containers for your arrangements; you will want to clean them with soapy water with a capful of bleach, then rinse well with warm water, being sure to remove all suds.
