THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE IT
Click HERE and choose the most beautiful amaryllis. Shall we choose a typical Christmas color for the occasion? There are still plenty of flavors in this genre. There are amaryllises in red, even darker red, in red with white or smaller in size. Depending on the table size, 5-10 flowers will go a long way.
Place the amaryllis next to each other and at the same height. Wrap a piece of tape around each stem. The tape provides extra strength and immediately adds an extra touch. Place a dot on the tape with a marker, nicely in the middle. After this you can pierce the stem with an awl or the tip of a knife.
Thread the rope through the stems and spread the flowers over the rope. If one stem sticks out a little higher than the rest, you can trim it. Hang the amaryllise garland above the table or on the wall and voilà. Don't forget to fill the stems with some water, so they stay beautiful much longer.
If you have flowers left over, you can use them to finish the table. Place a flower next to a group of pillar candles or fill a nice bowl with amaryllises. Instant chic!
