An amaryllis can be nicely decorated

Decorate amaryllis in a glass - idea for the Advent season

When it's stormy and snowing outside, an amaryllis in a jar enchants with winter blooms. Surrounded by delightful accessories, the blooming queen of winter invites you to dream. The following instructions explain how to skilfully implement the decoration idea:

material requirements

  • 1 glass vase, e.g. B. Floor vase
  • 1 knife
  • 1 scissors
  • 1 rose scissors
  • 1 wire cutter
  • 1 hot glue gun
  • 1 waxed amaryllis
  • Christmas baubles of your choice
  • ribbon
  • artificial snow
  • glass ice cubes
  • bouillon wire
  • Olive Green
  • beautifully shaped branches
  • Fairy lights, battery operated

Step-by-step instructions

When all the accessories are ready to hand on the table, the decorating fun can begin:

  1. Clean glass vase
  2. Fill in artificial snow to cover the ground (optionally moss or similar ground material)
  3. Distribute ice crystals on the artificial snow
  4. Screw olive green into the glass (alternatively fir green or thuja branches)
  5. Place the amaryllis in the middle of the glass
  6. Wrap the battery compartment of the light chain in ribbon and secure with bouillon wire
  7. Arrange fairy lights artistically
  8. Place the branch on the vase opening (fix with hot glue if necessary)

With the Christmas baubles you give your amaryllis in the glass the finishing touch. Hang the baubles from the branch so they dangle elegantly above the star of the knight bulb and outside the vase.

Decorate amaryllis for Christmas - idea with instructions

Are you in the mood for a festive, elegant decoration with amaryllis? Then serve the majestic flower on a silver platter. With the right accessories, you can stage an amaryllis in a wax coat for Christmas. The following instructions explain how the decoration idea succeeds:

material requirements

  • Amaryllis bulb with clearly visible shoots
  • crystal gel or artificial snow
  • Ice crystal splinters or reflex beads
  • metal spatula or brush
  • Pine cones, fir cones, larch cones
  • branches
  • succulents
  • plate moss
  • cushion moss
  • floral wire
  • hot glue gun
  • silver plate
  • Fairy lights, battery operated

Step-by-step instructions

In the first step you dedicate yourself to the amaryllis as the main actress. Remove the soil from the bulb. Place the flower bulb on the sheet moss. Attach the moss coat to the onion with floral wire. Follow these steps:

  1. Place the amaryllis bulb in the middle of the silver plate
  2. Decorate the moss coat with reflective beads
  3. Decorate branches with artificial snow, ice crystal splinters and cones
  4. Arrange cushion moss in fluffy balls around the amaryllis
  5. Place the decorated branches on the moss balls
  6. Place succulents between the cushion moss (optionally mini poinsettias)
  7. Use pine, fir and larch cones as gap fillers
  8. Spread out the chain of lights

With imaginative variations, you can match this decoration idea to your style of living. On a rustic wooden plate with hearty accessories, such as carved figures, an amaryllis blends harmoniously into the country house style. If the winter flowers shine on a glass plate, surrounded by white and glass decorative utensils, the arrangement harmonises wonderfully with a modern living ambience.

tips

Decorate hanging amaryllis artfully with thuja twigs, which you wrap around the flower stalk with colorful ribbons. Spice up the green decoration with shiny Christmas balls, funny pendants, glittering tinsel strips and a mini LED light chain. You can read here how to hang up an amaryllis correctly.
