Commonly called "wet foam", floral foam is the primary material for making
modern floral designs. Floral foam is designed to absorb and hold water in it's capillary
structure. Flower stems properly inserted into floral foam will be held in place and
can draw water up into the flower stem from the floral foam. Before designing an
arrangement, floral foam should be allowed to soak in a solution of water and floral
preservative / food. Each brick is 9"x4"x3".

High
Temp Glue Gun
The high temp glue gun is an
indispensable tool for the floral designer. For years we searched the
"best" glue gun available. We tested dozens of guns always believing that
the that more expensive models would be the "best". Guess what? This
inexpensive gun is just as good as any on the market. And, when it gets gunky with
glue residue and bits of floral material, just throw it away and get a new one.

High Temp Glue Sticks
You can buy hi-temp glue guns nearly anywhere, craft stores, hardware stores, even the
supermarket. Finding high-quality glue sticks is another matter. These glue
sticks will fit any standard hi-temp glue gun. A tip for working with hot
glue. Touching the hot glue and burning yourself is inevitable. A tip for working
with hot glue: keep a bowl of ice water near your work area when working with the glue
gun. Then, whenever you burn yourself, immediately plunge the burn into the ice water and
keep it there for a few minutes. This will lessen the hurt, stop the burning, reduce
the damage to the skin, and promote more rapid healing.
