Pack of 12 Floral Design Tools Small Egg Floral Cage - 4" Wide

Introducing the new Holly Heider Chapple Egg Floral Cage -- now sold in a case of 12! This Egg Floral Cage is perfect for those who don't enjoy designing with floral foam, and is an easy and efficient alternative to chicken wire. For florists who have been using the chicken wire method for years, this new "egg" concept is a safer alternative as it prevents the flower stems from being damaged or torn when arranging a design! The "Egg" also allows you to insert flower stems at all angles and keep them in a horizontal fan-shaped or asymmetrical array without the flowers popping to a vertical position when the stem handle is tied.Regarding her inventive new product, Holly Heider Chapple says, "The egg is wonderful for bouquets because you are able to create natural, loose, free form bouquets with less product. It keeps the stems from collapsing and stops the design from becoming a tight round ball. Because of the armature, you can lay the design down as you are working...The egg cradle can also be used to tie on heavy items like tillandsia (succulents or Airplants) or fruit. The structure adds support to the design."With the Small Egg Floral Cage, you can achieve the look of an intricate, Edwardian-style horizontal bouquet, without the difficulty of creating one traditionally!
