The Floral Toolkit Includes
Joyce Chen Beveled Tip Scissors are simply the best! They have flexible handles and are lightweight making them ideal for prolonged use. They provide the perfect amount of leverage, making cutting through most plant materials a breeze. They are also excellent for wire and delicate ribbon (although you will want to have dedicated pairs for these tasks). They are suitable for right or left handed users, and made from very tough chrome molybdenum stainless steel which is rust resistant.
ARS Bypass Pruners are great for finishing off bouquet ends because they hug the stems for a nice, even cut. They are also perfect for editing larger diameter branches (up to 19mm). The blades are hardened for a long life. Just keep them clean, and you’ll enjoy them for years to come!
Floral Genius 2 ½ Inch Flower Frog is a reusable floral mechanic well-suited for arrangements with moderate to low stem counts in shallow, wide-diameter containers. When used properly it compensates for the support a deep, narrow-mouthed vessel or high stem count recipe would offer to an arrangement. Unlike sponge bricks or netting it requires no “coverage” so plant materials can be more sparse. This brand wins for longevity (rust resistant).
Floral Putty is how you can affix the flower frog to your vessel in a secure way while still having the option of removing the frog. It’s semi-permanent.
Floral Netting is a low-cost reusable floral mechanic that is suitable for many types of floral design work. When secured with waterproof tape, it provides a secure base for floral arranging in a wide variety of vase shapes and sizes.
¼ Inch Waterproof Tape can be used to secure bouquets, floral netting, and create simple stability grids for cylinders.
A Small and Medium Container is the perfect place to start experimenting with portfolio building and product line offerings. The styles rotate throughout the season, but each is selected with the beginner in mind.
