How do you arrange flowers after you buy a bouquet from the grocery store? I have no idea on how to arrange flowers. I would just stick them in a vase and add water but they look tacky cause they're not arranged. Isn't there an easy technique for flower arranging? Any good websites?

This is for general flower arrangement, not only weddings! I just need some basic techniques on how to arrange regular flowers in a vase. I need good websites.

Personally, my favorite flower is alstroemeria. I buy enough so that the stems are tight in the vase, strip off leaves that are below the edge of the vase and put them in the water. Flower arranging is done.

martha stewart has a "weddings" dvd out w/ step by step instructions. very useful.
some of the higher end grocery stores (ie Gelson's) will hold free floral arranging demos once a month.
right now, hand tied bouquets are very in. you hold ea. stem in your hand as you add the next one in- filling empty spots and spreading color- etc. then you tie it and drop it in a vase. if it doesn't look right, try trimming the stems until it fits the mouth of the vase properly.
good luck!

You can go to your local library for flower arrangement books.
