Who knew you could turn computer printer paper into something so pretty? Lots of folded and torn pieces of paper simply pinned onto a styrofoam wreath (a straw wreath would work also.). Inside the construction a hand tied spiral bouquet is made. #emcdesigner #emcprogram #risewithemc #handtiedbouquet #bouquets #floraltechniques

To welcome Autumn I created a design using the colors of the season. Starting with a beautiful ceramic container from Mobach I used foraged grasses to create natural flower supports. The container has two rings of small holes, in which placed bent grass stems in an inverted “V” shape. This form supports the flowers which are all inserted in the larger center opening of the container. Flowers were used at the edge of the construction forming an open ring of flowers, and in the center I used some of the tops of the grasses.

Celebrating the end of summer with a design which began with a discarded Christmas wreath found on the street. I collected several this past January with the idea that I might find some new purpose for them. The frame was opened up a bit to create the “legs” and I covered the whole frame with rope. I chose the rough texture so that it would be an easier material to hold glue. Then I glued over 500 bamboo knots onto the frame and added small glass tubes as my water source. #risewithemc #emcdesigner #floraldesign #floralart #bamboo

Last day of my 5 day miniature design challenge. Thank you to @jennymcniece for challenging me and @shawnmichaelfoley for starting it.
Today’s design went in many directions with another form, but nothing really worked. Some days you can’t choose what the materials will make, they choose what they want to be. It’s a simple design using the stem (or “backbone “) of an Aspidistra elation leaf. I pierced the deconstructed Prunus laurocerasus leaves and inserted a Craspedia globosa and Phalaenopsis hybridum. A tiny strip of manipulated Aspidistra and Craspedia were added to complete the design. #emcdesigner #risewithemc #floralart #floraldesigner #ikebana #creativity #makesomething #miniatures #minimalism #design#

My design for day 4 of the five day miniature designs challenge. I created a scorpion like construction out of black stub wire and bind wire, with overlapping pieces to pierce botanical materials. Most of the material are pierced or woven on the construction, except the orchids that have small glass tube for a water source. In addition to the orchids I used Craspedia globosa, Tillandsia xerographica, Senecio peregrinus, and the roots from Hippeastrum hybridum. Thank you @ginkgogardensdc for still being open to serve the Capitol Hill community (and for the Tillandsia xerographica and Senecio peregrinus!).

Design for day 3 of the five day miniature designs challenge. My construction is woven wire and large water tube, covered with magnolia catkins, pieces of strelitzia leaves and phalaenopsis roots. All of the botanicals (except the phalaenopsis) were gathered in my neighborhood. #emcdesigner #risewithemc #botanical #design #miniatures #gatherer #floralart #floraldesign #floralarrangement #quarantine

My design for day 2 for the 5 days of five miniature designs challenge.
I made a small construction made with wire, a small water tube, and bind wire from @oasisfloralproducts. Only a few small botanical materials added, but a big visual impact.

Thank you @jennymcniece for nominating me for the 5 days of five miniature designs.
I’ve actually already been working on some miniature constructions based on works in @gregorlersch book Floral Diminutives. Perfect for using bits and pieces of materials, and even better when you have very little to design with. I’m looking at materials in a different way, and seeing more possibilities in things that ordinarily would get overlooked or discarded.
