For the Nov. meeting: Pave floral arrangements are a meticulous style of floral design where flowers are arranged tightly together, creating a smooth, even surface that resembles a floral mosaic. The term “pavé” is derived from the French word for “paved,” as the flowers are placed closely, much like the stones in a cobblestone street.

 Floral arranging
In floral arrangements, a pavé design is created by trimming leaves, cutting stems short, and placing flower heads close together. This technique can be used to create intricate designs, support mechanics, or create a uniform surface. Pavé arrangements can be low and layered, and look great on coffee tables, desks, or as a centerpiece.
