Silk Flower Cube Arrangement

Silk flower arrangements can last forever as long as you can maintain it clean and don't break the container... This is made for one of my regular customer. She only order silk flower arrangements. For Xmas, Thanksgiving she always order new arrangements (although I don't know what she did with the old one...) From time to time, she also order a lot of coffee table low-look cube arrangements... (I always wonder how many coffee table she have at home or office that she need that many...) Anyway, silk arrangement is no different from fresh. Just get the container ready, stick/glue the dry foam in and the start cutting your silk flowers and glue them in. (only use WIRE CUTTER to cut your silk flowers... DO NOT USE scissors) I often have to glue them with the glue from the glue pan (for big arrangements) or glue gun (for smaller one). In this one, I got the glass cube, and stick the dry foam in (with the help of the anchor pins and sticky clay). However, I want to put some small pebbles in between the glass and foam; I have to trim the foam smaller and leave at least 1cm between the gap to fit the pebbles. When cutting the foam, I always leave at least 0.5" on top of the container so that I have room to stick the flowers on the side to cover the edge and make it into a full ball look. From time to time, I also need to glue some moss on the foam to cover the foam from being seen in the arrangement. But for this, since it's a full look one, most of the empty space were covered by flowers or artificial leaves. So I didn't stick any moss on it. Where to get the artificial leaves? They are the leftover foliage from the silk flower stems I used in the arrangement. Just wire them or stem them with wooden picks or metal stemming machine. You will have lots of silk leaves to use~
