You can also use an artificial fruit within a floral arrangement for adding extra zing. For this follow these steps.

First, decide on the arrangement that you want to make. Buy the fruits accordingly.

Second, you need to decide whether you want the fruits to look natural or not. If you want an artificial look you can paint the fruits.

Third, attach the floral foam which will support the fruits with hot glue on the container.

Fourth, you need to cut the floral wires in such a way that they act as anchor to the floral foam for supporting the fruits. Remember heavier fruits like apples and pears should be left at the bottom of the vase.

Fifth, pierce the fruit and attach it to the floral wire and then stick the other end of the floral wire to the floral foam to the desired height.

Sixth, now arrange the flowers accordingly so that there is a good combination of both flowers and fruits.
