Pampas Grass Floral Arrangements with Dried & Bleached Botanicals
A floral look I’ve always loved (and one that has been trending in event design lately!) is the use of dried or bleached botanicals in floral arrangements to create a warm, neutral color palette. To achieve this look I often turn to dried pampas grass - it’s one of my very favorite components to use when designing with natural colors. Pampas grass has an organic, bohemian vibe that is unmistakable, and the texture it adds to centerpieces and floral installation is stunning. I pair it with other dried and fresh florals to create romantic and natural look that always wows!
At a recent launch event for cosmetics brand Dose of Colors and I collaborated with it’s founder Anna Petrosian and the team at Fancy That Events to design just this style of floral arrangements. I created a warm, neutral color palette that perfectly matched the branding for the new Dose of Color Stone and Truffle limited edition lip sets. In centerpieces atop each table and in floral wall installations, I combined dried and bleached botanicals like pampas grass, baby’s breath and umbrella ferns, with fresh florals like Queen Anne's lace, nude toned carnations and ranunculus, and rose gold tinted roses. Creamy nude, truffle and and cocoa colors filled the room and the event was beautiful from every angle!
