This design has been arranged using oasis in a container covered in brown paper. The idea of this design is that it creates the shape of a fan. The flowers used for this design need long, straight stems with all of the foliage removed so that the shape is clearly defined.
Flowers used in this design include: stocks, alstroemeria, phlox, iris, trachelium and hypericum berry
The design has a real summery feel and would be suited to a country tea room or hotel.
Contrasting interpretation of a fan design:

A different take on this style of arrangement, here the fan shape is created using sticks as opposed to the stems of the flowers. The floral material is then arranged at the top of the design. I like this unusual way of creating the shape, it is very clean cut and less fussy than my arrangement.
Planning the design:
Here is the final sketch of my design, as you can see I used the 1/3 2/3 proportion rule for this design to keep the balance.
The colours used in this design look really affective and give the design a real country garden feel. However, if I were to make this design again I would go about it in a different way. I would keep the material more linear and simple as i felt that my design became over crowded and the fan shape became lost with all the floral material.
