A heart of fresh flowers can be made from one or several types of plants, using decorative element, for example, beads, ribbons, animal figures, butterflies. It is not uncommon for candies, fruits and other sweets to become part of the composition.
How to make a heart from fresh flowers
The process of creating a composition is quite simple, using a small amount of materials, such as:
- Floral sponge (piaflor)
- Heart-shaped paper template or metal (plastic) heart shape
- Stationery knife
- Fresh flowers
- Decorative elements (optional)
- Package
Before you start creating the composition, you need to saturate the floral sponge with water. To do this, place the sponge in a container filled with water; when the sponge sinks to the bottom of the container, remove it.
Next, you need to outline the shape of the heart using a template or a ready-made mold. Using a knife, shape the sponge into a heart shape. By the way, in flower shops you can buy a ready-made oasis in the shape of a heart. Another option is to fill a plastic heart mold with a sponge. In this case, you do not need to give the sponge an exact shape; moreover, the water from the sponge will flow into the mold.
Trim the flowers so that 1-2 cm of length remain from the peduncle. Then stick the buds into the sponge as desired, but do not forget to insert the flowers on the sides of the sponge. You should start from the top, from the central point, then along the edge. When the flower frame is ready, fill the inner space.
Place the composition first in a plastic bag or film, then on wrapping paper or packaging. Secure the packaging using stationery needles or pins.
You can maintain the freshness of the composition by moistening the floral sponge every 2 days. Water should be cool (but not ice-cold). Moisten the sponge from a watering can or from another container, carefully pushing the flower buds apart.

A very simple master class on creating a flower arrangement for a tender heart from carnations. Such a heart will decorate and festive table newlyweds and will be a wonderful gift for your partner on the anniversary of the relationship.
To create a flower heart you will need:
- floral oasis (sponge, foam) - sold in flower shops;
- flowers;
- scissors;
- heart shape or cutter.
Carnations with their lush buds, silk petals and large flowers are best suited for such a composition. color palette- the heart can be made burgundy, soft pink and white. These flowers also have a fairly solid stem - making it easy for you to insert the flowers into your floral oasis. Well, among cut flowers they are real “long-livers”.
Let's get started. First, let’s saturate the floral oasis with water. To do this, place it in a container of water and leave it floating on the surface - as soon as the oasis sinks to the bottom, you can take it out - it has absorbed maximum quantity water.
After this, we will cut out the heart from the oasis. The material is quite soft - you can trim it with a large stationery cutter or special form, which is sold in hobby stores.
We cut the flowers almost to the very bud (1-2 cm) and begin to compose the composition -
We continue the section of original gifts for Valentine's Day that you can make with your own hands. And today we invite you to make your own flower valentine. This is not a simple valentine, this is a heart-shaped congratulation made of roses and... delicious and juicy strawberries. You are unlikely to find such a composition at a flower kiosk, but by February 14 you will be offered such a gift, but you can try to make it yourself with the help of our master class.
So, for our Valentine we will need:
- floral oasis (you can buy this inexpensive device at any flower shop, it is inexpensive, and is a sponge that is soaked in water),
- red roses (you can take small ones, up to 50 cm long),
- toothpicks,
- salal leaves (or other greens),
- decorative pins,
- wire,
- ribbons,
- pruner (or knife)
If you purchased a rectangular piece of oasis, then cut out a heart from it with a knife and soak it in water. And at this time, we cut off the rose buds, leaving a stem no more than 3 cm long; we do not throw away the remaining stem - it will come in handy. Then we insert our buds into the oasis so that they are located tightly, thus filling the entire half of our heart.
Next, we take the leaves of salal (you can also buy this greenery in) or any other greenery and cut off the leaves, place each leaf on the end of the oasis, so that it overlaps the previous one, i.e. overlap To keep the leaves on the side of the composition, we secure the ends with a decorative pin. Thus, we cover the entire end of our heart with leaves, and also cover the second empty half of the heart with part of the leaves. Once it is covered, you can start filling it.
But first, let’s decorate our composition. To do this, take the remaining stems from the roses and cut them with pruning shears into sticks 1-2 cm long, take 3 sticks and fasten them in the middle with wire, and tie them on top with a red ribbon, and insert what we got on the side on top of the leaves.
Well, the final part, filling the other half of the heart. We need to fill the second half with strawberries, to do this we string each berry onto toothpicks, and insert the tip of the toothpick into the oasis. When the entire half is tightly filled with a layer of strawberries, we simply pour the rest on top of the first layer.
And one more small one, but useful advice. Since now is not the strawberry season and it is quite difficult to find them, you can replace them with Raffaello candies that are no less tasty and loved by many girls, simply pouring the candies on top of the leaves and filling the entire half of the heart with them. We think that the girl will be delighted with such an original congratulations on Valentine's Day!
As a result, you should end up with such an unusual and beautiful, fragrant and tasty Valentine’s card.
A bright, unusual, heart-shaped bouquet of roses is not difficult to make at home, the main thing is to stock up on floral foam and fresh flowers.
Floral foam, like flowers, can be purchased at a wholesale florist warehouse. Just a little time and a luxurious composition as a gift will be ready. It is better to do it the day before or on the day of donation. When giving a gift, explain to the owner how to care for the rose heart. Compositions based on floral foam should be watered moderately every day with water, and in hot weather twice a day. At the same time, you should not place the “heart” in a cold and damp place (“Oasis” can become moldy), or near a hot radiator in winter. At proper care roses will last up to seven days. In this work, to simplify the care of the composition, cling film was used to prevent moisture evaporation.
Materials:
floral sponge “Oasis” in the shape of a heart,
odd number of roses,
thuja leaves,
cling film,
colored cardboard in roses,
floral wire,
felt lace,
hot glue gun
Execution: 
1. Saturate the floral foam with water; to do this, place it in a bowl of water and allow the excess to drain. Wrap the “Oasis” in one layer of cling film; this will prevent the water from evaporating quickly. You can do without film, but then the composition “heart of roses” will need to be looked after more carefully - water it once a day so that the roses do not wilt longer.
2. Cut a strip of colored cardboard as wide as the height of the floral sponge and long enough to wrap around the sponge. outside. If the original sheet of cardboard is short, then cut several strips. Wrap the strip(s) of Oasis cardboard and secure the overlaps with hot glue. 
3. From floristic or ordinary wire cut a piece about 15 cm long. Bend it in the middle.
4. Stick a piece of wire into the “hole” of the top of the cardboard-wrapped floral sponge. This will further highlight the shape of the Oasis. 
5. Wrap the floral foam over the colored cardboard with felt lace and secure with hot glue.
6. Stick thuja leaves along the edge of the “Oasis”. 
7. Cut the rose stems short (no more than 3-4 cm long).
8. Fill the top of the floral foam evenly with roses, moving from the edge to the center. 
9. Alternate rows of roses with rows of thuja leaves.
10. The composition is ready. Another original gift- flower figurines made with your own hands at home or in a florist shop.
And if you decide to give a bouquet for many years to come, consider making roses from ribbon. We invite you to familiarize yourself with our detailed master class.
Below are examples of the work of master florists for inspiration.
You can also make a heart of roses using plant leaves or sisal instead of colored cardboard along the edge of the “Oasis”; for this, for example, salal leaves pinned around the perimeter with pins or pieces of floral wire are suitable. You can also use roses of different colors.
