Creating Small Flower Arrangements for Christmas Decoration

Today, starts the 3-day most- welcome rains/snow  for Northern California. Outside is gloomy and rainy, but inside is cherry and bright with my two flower arrangements I made today and yesterday.

All materials are from my garden-Today's flower arrangement 

Last Thanksgiving Day, I received a Thanksgiving Bouquet from Ditas that was purchased commercially ( second photo). Yesterday, I attempted to copy it creating a small Christmas Center Piece using most of the materials from my Garden. Here's what I created.

Remember that the main rules of flower arrangements is to aim for balance, proportion and scale, unity, harmony, rhythm and balance, and emphasis. The words symmetry, contrast, focus, movement, structure, color and subject of the arrangement are often mentioned in designing an arrangement. If you have not done flower arrangement try it. I am pretty sure you will have fun.  

Here's a video of designing a small flower arrangement piece using a discarded gift box as the base.
