Sitting Pretty!
Designers are exploring the use of opulent flowers with distinctive looks to set themselves apart from others.
Using Mokara orchids from Mayesh, the divine Mr. M has created an exotic neoclassic tie back that exudes elegance. With a shimmering organdy and a rich silk chair cover (from Linen Lenders) the floral tie is a chic and intricate style borrowing on the design motifs from ancient Roman, Greek and Egyptian themes.

For a more formal look a gold satin chair cover is used with a sage green sheer tieback. This effect is built on a small Oasis Igloo Holder.
Simply wire the Oasis holder around the chair back and hide the wire with the sheer tieback before designing.
Using James Storei and Mokara Orchid stems, build a framework to determine size and shape. Add Bittersweet, Rosehip and Wheat from Mayesh into the design to create a more abstract and visually exciting masterpiece. Because you are placing this into wet Oasis, it is important to use wired wooden picks to hold the orchid stems in place so they don't twist and fall out of the foam.
Overall time to create this look: 15 minutes
