Living Arrangements with Nico de Swert Pottery Barn
Hi I'm Nico de Swert, I'm a floral designer and interior stylist
this one os really easy to make
We're using five of the Bosporus bowls from pottery barn
and some pieces of slate that you can get from your tile store they have plenty of choices
granite, marble or any other material that fits your interior we have the cylinders we have the slates
and we have the hydrangeas
this is the simplest arrangement
you take some of the hydrangeas and you chop
the stems of your hydrangeas really short just like that
just dump them into the water it's very easy like that
and this is also a great trick for when you buy hydrangeas form the store or cut them out of your garden
and you come home and they're all like droopig
and wilting this is the easiest way to revive them just a fill up a bowl with water
put the hydrangeas in there and they just pop up there right like that
put like two or three heads into the bowl
just like that
we're going to add a piece of slate on top of it
and then we're going to add a second cylinder
and this might look a little scary in the end
but I can guarantee you it's a very safe arrangement, it's very solid
won't fall over
we're just going to continue putting a few heads
of the blue hydrangea
into the bowl just like that
just always turn the heads inside so that the stems are on the inside of the bowl so that we don't
really see them
Another piece of tile
another floor just like that
the same things just a couple of heads just cutting them short,
laying them in the water
and this is the best environment for hydrangeas they love to be around water
and as we finish our last tier here
the other two we're going to do in the powder room which is where we're gonna out this arrangement which is the most
intimate space in your home and is going to make a big impression
look at this beautiful arrangement it's very easy to make we've added the two more tiers
Most of your guests are going to come here tonight and it's going to make a beautiful impact
