Hi little pettal, when I first started,I was thrown literally in the deep end, I looked at a design in a florist book, kind of copied the shape with foliage, then did my own thing. Once you've made a few you will gain more confidence. Then Bob's yer uncle, you will be away. If you get stuck, go for a wee or something, when you come back, you will be able to see what the arrangement lacks. It worked for me, hope it will for you.Try to do a design using a minimal amount of flowers,that is good practise for your creative design.
