Bouquets of fresh flowers look impressive, but quickly fade. It's one thing, if it's a gift for a holiday - you can simply put flowers in the water. It's quite another - when there is no such possibility, and the bouquet is to endure a long trip or a hot day.

Most often this applies, of course, to wedding bouquets. That flowers could receive the necessary make-up, being outside the vase, invented such a convenient device, as portbuketnitsa. It consists of a round sponge built into an elongated plastic stand, which is closed with a wrapper when decorating a bouquet.

How to assemble a bouquet

If you have a portuquette, you can assemble the bouquet yourself. Do it this way:
1. The stems of flowers are cleaned from the leaves so that they do not create an unnecessary extra volume. It is undesirable to undo them - this can injure the stem, so it is better to use a knife with a sharp blade.
2. If the stems are flexible or too thin, it is recommended to tie a copper wire to them with tape - this will not only eliminate the possibility of breaking them, but will also facilitate the process of assembling the bouquet, since a sharp base will enter the sponge much easier than a tender stem.
3. Flower composition is based on their preferences. On the edge, usually distribute the twigs of greenery, but do not get carried away by them. Greens are an element of decor, but not the bulk of the bouquet.
4. After the bouquet is collected, the stems are tied with a thread or tightly wound with an adhesive tape, and then the bouquet is made with the help of foil or paper.

It looks beautiful, and most importantly - natural! Portuquette weighs very little, so the bouquet will be light. The handle of the device is comfortable and does not cause discomfort to the bride, being for a long time in her hands. An easier way to make a beautiful and durable bouquet at the moment does not exist.
