Silk Flowers in Tall Eiffel Vases: Foam Ball & Weighting

Skinny vases + full silk arrangement = foam ball on top, weight at bottom.

Mechanics

1. Dry foam ball (gray/green) taped to vase rim with waterproof tape.
2. Cut silk stems short (2–3"); insert into foam for a natural, trailing look.
3. Weight vase: Pour glass pebbles / decorative stones to 20–30 cm depth. Prevents tipping.

Sources

• Dry foam balls + floral tape: local florist, Michaels, Joann, or online (Floral Supply Syndicate).
• Practice with one vase first—adjust stem density, height, balance.

Result: lush, stable, professional-looking centerpiece.
