The Evelyn Garden Centerpiece - Floral Arranging Tutorial

As seen in Architectural Digest and Martha Stewart Weddings.

There is an art to making flowers look like you didn't try too hard — loose, garden-fresh, alive. That's exactly what this tutorial teaches.

In this 30-minute step-by-step video, I'll walk you through two timeless techniques: building a lush, structured centerpiece with chicken wire, and creating an airy, free-flowing arrangement using a classic floral frog. The result is the kind of arrangement that looks like it came straight from a French garden — not a grocery store.

What you'll learn:

• Evelyn's Go-To Flower Guide — my signature framework: Focal, Secondary, Filler, and Greens
• How to prep and shape chicken wire for a natural, organic base
• How to use a floral frog for loose, effortless arrangements
• Stem cutting angles and placement that make all the difference
• How to choose your flowers — the simple ratio I use for focal, secondary, filler, and greens every time
• Troubleshooting — why it looks sparse, why stems won't stay, how to fix it

What's included:

• 30-minute instructional video (instant access, watch anytime)
• A take-to-the-market flower shopping card you can screenshot on your phone

This is for you if:

• You want your home to feel beautiful and alive without it being a production
• You've always wanted to do your own flowers for a dinner party, holiday table, or everyday moment
• You're tired of stiff, overdone arrangements and want something that feels real
