Glue the Lomey Pedestal firmly into the centre of the 15" dish. Soak the 10" OASIS® FOAM FRAMES® Ring and leave to drain. Cut a cross through the centre of the oranges and slide them down the Lomey Pedestal. Place the OASIS® FOAM FRAMES® Ring onto the lower Lomey Dish. Glue a Lomey Universal Piece and a small 9" Lomey Dish to the top of the Lomey Pedestal.

Make sure both are securely glued together. Complete the lower arrangement first using a circle of Galax leaves around the outer edge of the OASIS® FOAM FRAMES® Ring, then add the flowers. For greater impact make strong groups of flowers and intersperse with oranges. Make sure all the stems are cut diagonally and are pushed well into the floral foam. Finish the base arrangement with loops of Sisal on a Roll and brown Rustic Grapevine Wire.

Make the pineapple top by covering the OASIS® Ideal Floral Foam Sphere with Sisal bound on with chocolate Metallic Wire. Embellish the pineapple with Long Raffia and decorative pins. Insert two Glass Test Tubes into the OASIS® Ideal Floral Foam Sphere to hold the topping of the Fountain Grass, Anthurium and Galax leaves. Finally sit the decorated pineapple on a bed of coiled orange Long Raffia.
