This month on the Academy, we’re showing you how to create a dreamy gypsophila garland — a timeless and versatile design that adds soft romance and delicate texture to any event setting.
Using netted floral foam garlands, this tutorial guides you step-by-step through building a garland that can be tailored to your event’s needs. Whether you’re going for a neat, minimal look or a full, cloud-like impact, this design is perfect for hanging installations, archways, or lavish tablescapes.
While we’re focusing on gypsophila (baby’s breath) in this lesson, the technique also works beautifully with similar flowers like limonium or waxflower. However, gypsophila remains a top favourite — and for good reason! Its soft white tones complement any palette, working beautifully alone or mixed with other blooms and greenery.
If you would like to create this design, you will need the following:
| Quantity | Plant Materials / Equipment |
|---|---|
| 1 pair | 1 |
| 10 stems (per 2) | Gypsophila Large Headed |
| 1 pack | Netted Garlands (Floral Foam) |
You can find the floral foam netted garlands on our webshop, along with different types of Gypsophila. You will also find British Grown Gypsophila available on the wholesale shop; this is typically available between July through to September.
If you would like to opt for a more sustainable or eco-friendly approach, you can swap the netted garlands for moss roulades and/or just chicken wire. Gypsophila lasts well out of water, and will in fact dry in-situ.
Whether you’re designing for a wedding, an event backdrop, or a dramatic tablescape, this gypsophila garland brings effortless elegance to any setting. Follow along with the tutorial to create your own — and don’t be afraid to experiment with flower types or add in greenery for a custom touch.
