bq holders ?????
Hello,
I know we all can work different but I would like to study whether you are in to wet or dry bq holders for wedding work. It seems to be a mixed bag and I don’t get the dry bq holder usage for fresh materials??? But I would be interesting to see your comments So I thought I would do a poll. Thanks in advance Flower x

Hi Flower
I tended to use fresh oasis BQ holders and still do but I don't wet them now I just put my materials in and glue them in and then give then a bloddy good spray. Just wondering have used the heart shaped ones yet?? Ian

Bq holders
Morning Flower,
I use wet holders, glue flowers in to the foam dry like Ian but then lightly soak holder when I'm finished. I find I'm wiring more and more again now though, just dont trust holders esecially with big showers. Interesting poll, look forward to reading the comments

Wet foam. I soak the oasis the day/night before and give it a chance to dry out a bit so its not saturated. I'll wire and glue somethings.

Like yourself I find them a bit too big. When they are soaked the feel like your carrying a brick. I do think the large shower bouquets are making a comeback. I'm doing one next week of just red grand prix and Ivy. I may pop a few crystals in there too. Ian
