"The next step in it is when you are designing and now that you have your two bundles together is actually holding it together and see how it is going to look to make sure it is going to fit how you expect it to fit on her arm, if you need any more kind of greeneries or any kind of bulk on the flower itself. This one here we are going to add some greens up at the top, just to have a little interest to go up and again I am just wrapping them together here and adding the floral type. We have created a little interest and it keeps the flow of the flower going up and down it. So then when you do this you can combine the flower on your arm and what you need to do is start the green tape on the one side and it doesn't matter which one, top or bottom, lay them side by side to each other and take the floral tape all the way around it so now you can see the size of what the arrangement is going to look like when you are finished so it is always good to look on your hand and see or anywhere you are going to wear it if it is on your hand, on your chest, is this too big, is something going to be bothering your face? You need to make sure that that is taken care of because you don't want to be aggravating whoever is wearing it so the next step is to actually take the design that you have and hold it to yourself and see how it is going to be worn. Make sure it has a nice flow to it, it isn't real heavy or big and so the next step I would suggest doing is to go ahead and hold it and use yourself as a model."
