Step 4: Cut Flowers

Measure your flowers, from the end of the stem to the tip of the flower. Using the scissors cut the flowers to 70cm. Always cut them on an angle for maximum water absorption.

Top tip: add half a cup of water to keep the flowers fresh.

Step 5: Arrange

Gently bend the flowers into the fish bowl with the stem at the bottom. Curve the stem around the fish bowl. Be careful not to break the stem. Once a few flowers are in start by placing the flower in the desired position and bend the stem in after. Ensure there are no major gaps. Continue until all ten blooms are in and arrange in a sweeping fashion.
