DIY Transitional Bouquets

Creating your own transitional bouquets is a rewarding experience, and here’s how you can do it:

  1. Pick a Base: Choose a dominant summer flower. It could be a rose, sunflower, or even a daisy.

  2. Add a Twist: Now, introduce autumnal elements. Think about adding warm hues like burnt orange or deep red chrysanthemums.

  3. Accent with Foliage: Autumn is all about lush foliage. Add in a few oak or maple leaves for that quintessential fall feel.

  4. Give it Texture: Consider adding berries or small fruits like crabapples for added depth and interest.

  5. Finishing Touch: Wrap it all up with a rustic burlap or a warm-colored ribbon to complete the autumnal look.

So go ahead, let your creativity flow and make the most of both summer and autumn blooms. And remember, if DIY isn’t your thing, Clapham Flowers is here to bring your floral dreams to life with flower delivery across SW12 and Clapham.
