When you have a lot of gluing to do and need to work
"hands free", (without a glue gun in your hand) hot melt pan glue is
indispensable. This is an excellent glue pan with temperature control. The pan is 7
inches in diameter, perfect for nearly all jobs.

Oasis Floral Foam Orbs
Floral Foam Orbs are precut spheres standard floral
foam. The orbs are perfect for creating topiaries, pomanders and creative floral
designs.
As a floral designer who remembers painfully carving my own orbs out of a brick of floral
foam, the precut floral foam orbs are a Godsend. I use them to create pomander
balls in weddings and they make a perfect ball of flowers in a topiary centerpiece.
A large floral orb makes the creation of a Biedermeier styled floral design easy.

4" Wired Wood Picks
Wired Wood Picks are an essential aid to the floral
designer with a multitude of uses. I use wood picks to cluster grasses for a single
insertion into floral foam. If I am working with a very thick stem such as a Bird of
Paradise and limited foam space I will attach two wood picks to give greater stability to
the insertion. Wood picks can be used to secure a bow in an arrangement and are great for
securing fruits, vegetables, pine cones and pods in a floral design.
