Roos van Unen has created an Anthurium plant arrangement with the Anthurium 'Adios® Red' from Fuerte Planta. With only a few materials, an edgy plant design with a leather look is easily made. The brown colour of the leather and the bright red flower of the Anthurium is a beautifully powerful and playful combination.
MATERIALS
Anthurium 'Adios® Red', a piece of leather, staples, transparent vase.
HOW TO MAKE
Keep tools such as knives, scissors and a staples within reach.
Step 1:
Cut the leather is short strips. It doesn't matter if they differ in size.
Step 2:
Make a circle with a leather strip and fix it with a staple. Do this with almost every strip, but keep some strips to create details later.
Step 3:
Place all leather circles together on the table, forming a long rectangular shape. Now, staple the circles together.
Step 4:
Place the leather frame around the transparent vase to see if it fits. Staple a few more circles to the construction, if necessary. Attach the ends to each other by stapling it together.
Step 5:
Take the Anthurium 'Adios® Red' out of the pot and place it in the transparent vase. Use the remaining leather strips to add some details to the design by stapling circles around the stems.
Done! You now have a plant arrangement with an edgy leather look in which the Anthurium 'Adios® Red' is beautifully presented.
