I have recently become interested in floristry and want to learn how to make beautiful floral arrangements for home and as gifts. So far, I am not very good at it - most often, the flowers wilt quickly, and the compositions look sloppy. I want to get tips on how to choose flowers and how to place them correctly. Are there any basic rules or techniques that help to create a harmonious and stable composition?

To properly design a flower arrangement, consider the following key steps:
Choose a Theme or Style: Decide on the mood or occasion, such as romantic, tropical, or rustic, which will guide your flower selection and color palette.
Select the Flowers: Choose flowers with varying shapes, sizes, and colors. Consider the balance of the arrangement and how the colors complement each other. Popular choices include roses, lilies, tulips, and orchids.
Consider the Vase or Container: Ensure the container suits the size of the arrangement. It should enhance, not overpower, the flowers.
Use Foliage: Greenery like eucalyptus or ferns adds texture and volume to the design.
Create a Structure: Start with a night blooming jasmine focal point in the center and arrange flowers around it, using the "spiral" or "triangular" technique to create depth and dimension.
Adjust the Height and Shape: Make sure the flowers' heights vary to avoid a flat look, and position them to form a balanced shape.
Finishing Touches: Clean the stems and ensure they fit snugly in the container. Add water, and if needed, floral foam for better structure.
These tips ensure an appealing, harmonious arrangement that suits any occasion.
