Scent Sensation Floral Arrangement
OASIS® NAYLORBASE® Posy Pads are not just for funeral tributes. They are actually one of the most useful products you can stock in your workrooms, because they can be used for virtually every type of design.
The gift is actually a bottle of perfume, encased in top and tailed mesh cones. The design is given extra impact with bullion wire, pearl corsage pins and swirls of sisal. The flowers curve and twist to encase the design, while the foliage is given its own designer twist with pearl-type strands.
The whole design is worked into a 12" NALORBASE® Posy Pad, which means that all Sue had to do was shave the edge of the floral foam, which gives the design a more rounded softer look, run it under the tap to soak, and she was ready to go. No messing, no faffing, just instant design for maximum profit.

How to put it together
|
 |
- Soak the NAYLORBASEŽ Posy Pad and shave the edges of the floral foam. Decorate the edge with Salal Leaves. Perfume is encased in the top and tailed mesh cone, using the Aubergine Sisal to support the box and inserted in the posy pad.
|
 |
- Groups of flowers are placed into the Posy Pad to create movement around the gift.
|
 |
- Bring together the textures and cover the Posy Pad with soft groups of Carnations and rolled Aspidestra Leaves. Roses are added to create impact.
|
|
|
- To finish the design and add a touch of distinction, pearl-headed pins are added to the leaves to match the mesh cone.
