How to bloom with the joy of arranging flowers

Flower arranging improves your concentration, creativity, even your cognitive performance. Fresh flower arrangements at home are also relaxing mood boosters that encourage positive communication between people. The look and scent of flowers make you feel more connected to nature and the world around you.

 

  • Bring a basket to the nearest place for fresh flowers. Ask what flowers are in season. Think of what flowers you like and which colors, sizes, scents and textures go well together.
  • At home, put on an apron, select a vase and prepare your blooms. Arrange the flowers with care. There are no rules - go where the flowers take you.
  • Display your vase in a visible spot in your home. Take in its scent and enjoy the view.

Make your flowers feel at home

As soon as you get home with your fresh flowers, cut the stems with a pair of MÄRKBART scissors (so that they can absorb water better) and immediately put them in a BERÄKNA vase with fresh water.
