This design has been made in a brown ceramic bowl, using floral foam for the mechanics. It has been made to be viewed from all sides. The above picture shows one side of the arrangement (the other side is below), and the foliage used is (from the right, clockwise), Hedera 'Anne Marie', Heuchera 'Plum Pudding', and Pittosporum tenuifolium. The flowers used are orange Roses and orange Tulips (varieties unknown), lime green button Dendranthema (Chrysanthemum), and standard pale green Carnations, which have been painted gold on the edges. (A closeup view of these is below.) In the centre of the design are two Hedera-covered dri-foam spheres. Small Hedera (Ivy) leaves have been pinned overlapping each other to cover the spheres, and this gives a change of form and texture. (See enlarged picture below.)

This picture shows the other side of the design. The foliage used here is (from the right, clockwise) Pittosporum tenuifolium, XFatshedera lizei 'Anna Mikkels', Heuchera 'Winter Red', then more Pittosporum tenuifolium. The flowers seen on this side are orange Tulips, lime-green Dendranthema, and green Carnations (painted gold on the edges.) A group of Ivy berries adds texture to the design.

This picture is a closeup of the Ivy covered spheres, showing how the leaves overlap to give a lovely texture. I have chosen leaves which have been tinged purple by the cold weather.

Here's a closeup of the green Carnations, with their edges painted gold. To do this, I sprayed some gold paint into a snall shallow container, then just dipped the ends of the petals into the paint. This would work well with any colour paint, and adds an extra dimension to the flowers.
