Creations by Jennifer Mühlbauer in florieren! magazine

This design is inspired by the song “Kinder an die Macht” by Herbert Grönemeyer. Jennifer expresses the dynamic between chaos, wildness, and calm moments. Each flower has its own space to grow and move freely. Seeds were consciously chosen as a base element, symbolizing the eternal cycle of life: every seed holds a unique personality.

The vase, covered in elm seeds, represents balance, peace, and love, everything a child needs to thrive. The elm itself stands for intuition, the foundation on which children naturally live.

Technique: Parallel design in Oasis floral foam, topped with sand and seeds.

Jennifer’s second piece is made of two interconnected bouquets: a large one for the parents and a smaller one representing the newborn child. The large bouquet symbolizes the parents’ life story: memories and moments they want to pass on. These are reflected in the diverse characters of the flowers.

The small bouquet represents the newborn. Composed of only a few blooms, each chosen for its healing or symbolic meaning. For example, chamomile was traditionally used as a protective plant above cradles. Jennifer used delicate, refined flowers for a tender and harmonious result.

A fine, subtle wire connects both bouquets: bound for eternity.
