Things You'll Need:
- Flowers (and greenery)
- Wood floral picks
-
Step 1
Gather the flowers and greenery you would like to include in your floral picks. For most floral arrangements and bouquets you will use smaller flowers and buds, along with small-leafed greenery. You can use fresh, silk, dried or plastic.
-
Step 2
Use wood floral picks, from an arts and crafts store, to make your floral picks. If this is not available to you, you may purchase wooden skewers from the grocery store and cut them in half with a clippers. The wood floral picks have a wire attached at the top. You will need to add floral wire if you use the wood skewers.
-
Step 3
Arrange the small floral grouping and wrap the pick's wire around it to secure. Start with the end of the wire at the top of the stems and work your way down, wrapping the wire for about an inch or so.
-
Step 4
Trim the stems, if needed, so most of the bottom of the pick is visible. Your floral pick is ready to stick into a floral arrangement or bouquet.
