These red and green Icy Berry Holiday Floral Picks are approximately 18 inches long and 9 inches wide. Among the decorations adorning these Christmas Floral Arrangements are clusters of large red shiny berries, green pine needles, and pine cones. All of these Icy Floral Picks are covered in clear cubes to give them the appearance of being frozen.
How to shape your Icy Berry Floral Picks: Unlike other Christmas Floral Arrangements, it is not recommended that you try to shape any of these Decorative Floral Picks, as they are too delicate. Attempting to shape them could cause the plastic ice to fall off or the pieces of it to break. We suggest displaying these Christmas Floral Picks as they are.
How to shape other Christmas Floral Decorations Shaping Floral Picks is very similar to the shaping of your Artificial Trees and other Floral Picks. The petals of any flowers should be gently curved to give them a natural look, as should any green leaves adorning the Floral Pick. Any pine stems can be bent and shaped in whatever way is appealing. To get a natural look, they should be slightly bent near the base and curved upwards, as if growing towards the sunlight, so try to make them poke through gaps of leaves and petals. Any twigs are an unnatural addition, in the sense that twigs do not grow like they are displayed, so just arrange them in a manner that is appealing to you. Any clusters of berries or berries on holly stems are very delicate, so it is probably best to leave them as they are. If you should desire to shape them try to do so very gently and as little as possible so you do not break the berries from off their stems. Pine cones are much to fragile to shape, so we recommend you leave them as they are. Once you are done shaping the individual parts hold the Floral Decoration out in front of you, or place upright a little distance from you and see how you like its appearance. You want to keep the colors balanced throughout the Floral Decoration, so as to keep it aesthetically appealing to your guests and family; spread out the items in these bouquets in such a manner to keep this balance of color.
How to store decorative swags: The first thing to consider when putting away your decorative picks or sprays is if you crush them for storage you will have to reshape them again next year. Also the more times you crush all the leaves, flower petals and berries, the weaker they can become, thus decreasing the life of your decorative picks and sprays. Another thing that will improve the life of your decorative picks and sprays is to keep it clean and free from dust and the elements while it is being stored. You can cover it with a sheet, and store it loosely in a box or on a shelf.
