# Bouquet Inspiration Generator > Explore bouquet shapes and colour directions with private AI references. Check every flower and mechanic before using an idea. When a design is still rough, a quick visual can help you explore shape and colour. This tool creates three AI reference images from your written brief. Keep them private while you plan. They can invent flowers and mechanics, so check every detail before using an idea. ## What It Does Describe an arrangement, pick a type, and the tool creates three AI reference images. They are private planning aids, not finished bouquet photographs. It covers six kinds of work: Bouquet, Centrepiece, Buttonhole, Corsage, Wire and Tribute. The extra options change to match the type you pick, so a bouquet asks for a container while a tribute asks for a frame shape. Each set gives you the same brief in three style takes: **Compact**, **Natural** and **Wild**, so you can compare a few looks side by side. Each is an interpretation, not a guaranteed match to your brief. The images appear as they finish. You can download successful images, and the set is saved to your history to reopen later. Your remaining monthly image credits are shown at the top of the page. Each style uses one credit. A failed image credit is returned automatically. ## The Short Version 1. **Pick your arrangement type.** 2. **Describe the flowers, colours and finish** in the box. 3. **Choose the container or shape** for that type. 4. **Generate** and wait for each reference to finish. 5. **Download** the ones you like; they are also saved to your history. The rest of this guide walks through each step. ## Pick Your Arrangement Type Start by choosing what you are making. There are six types, each with its own icon: **Bouquet**, **Centrepiece**, **Buttonhole**, **Corsage**, **Wire** and **Tribute**. The one you pick is highlighted. ![Six arrangement types to choose from, with Bouquet selected and highlighted.]() The options below the description box change to match your choice: - **Bouquet** and **Centrepiece** show a **Container Style**: Glass Vase, Gift Box, Wicker Basket or No Container. - **Tribute** shows a **Tribute Shape**: Heart, Cross, Wreath/Ring, Circle/Posy Pad, Pillow, Letter, Word or Custom. - **Buttonhole** shows a style choice of Pin or Pocket Square; **Corsage** shows Wrist or Pin. - **Wire** has no extra option, so you describe the frame shape in the box instead. ![The options adapt to the arrangement: choosing Tribute reveals the sympathy frame shapes.]() ## Describe Your Arrangement Type your design into the **Describe Your Arrangement** box. Detail helps steer the image, but it does not guarantee an exact match. Name the stem count, flower varieties, colours, foliage and ribbon or wrapping. ![The input card: pick an arrangement type, describe the flowers you want, choose a container, then generate.]() A useful brief reads like a recipe. For example: 24 stems, 12 deep burgundy roses, 6 white lisianthus, 6 stems silvery eucalyptus, with white trailing ribbon. Check the result against the real recipe before using the idea. ## Generate And Read Your Results Tap **Use 3 Image Credits**. Each style card shows a spinner, then its image. If a style fails or times out, its image credit is returned. The three styles are three takes on the same brief: - **Compact** is dense and rounded, flowers packed tight with little gap. - **Natural** aims for a garden-gathered hand-tied look. Check that its flowers and mechanics are workable. - **Wild** is looser and asymmetrical, with more foliage and movement. ![Three style takes on the same brief, ready to compare side by side.]() ## Download And Revisit Each result has a **Download Image** button. Click the image itself to open it full size in a new tab. ![Each result carries its style label and a one-tap Download Image button.]() Every generation is saved for you. When you have at least one, a **View History** button appears at the top of the page. Search by description or arrangement type, then open a past generation to load its description, settings and images. Use **Archive** to move an idea out of your current list without deleting it. Ideas that you have not opened for 90 days move to **Archived** automatically. They remain saved there, and **Restore** puts one back in your current list. ![Every generation is kept, so you can reopen an earlier idea and pick up where you left off.]() ## Tips And Best Practices - **Be specific.** Name the stem count, colours, foliage and ribbon. AI may still alter what you asked for. - **Keep every image as a private reference.** It is not a photo of real flowers or a customer proof. Reject fake-looking blooms, impossible colours and unworkable mechanics. - **Check every colour.** AI can alter a variety or invent a shade. Compare the result with real availability before using the idea. - **Compare the three styles.** Use Compact, Natural and Wild to explore shape, then make the design decisions yourself. - **Watch your image credits.** The count remaining and reset date sit at the top of the page. Each style uses one credit and failed images are refunded. - **Price it separately.** This tool shows the look, not the cost. Work out what to charge with the [Arrangement Calculator](https://florist-toolbox.com/tutorials/pricing-tools/arrangement-calculator), or for sympathy work the [Tribute Calculator](https://florist-toolbox.com/tutorials/pricing-tools/tribute-calculator). ## Common Questions **How many images do I get?** Each set contains three styles: Compact, Natural and Wild. Each style uses one image credit. **What do Compact, Natural and Wild mean?** Three design takes on the same brief. Compact is dense and rounded, Natural is the achievable garden-gathered hand-tie, and Wild is looser with more movement. **How long does it take?** The images fill in as they finish. If a job cannot finish within its queue limit, it stops and returns that image credit. **Can I save or download them?** Yes. There is a **Download Image** button under each result, and every generation is saved automatically. Tap **View History** to reopen a past one. **Why did a colour come out different?** AI can get colours wrong. Check the variety and shade against real flowers and your supplier's availability. **Which arrangements can I make?** Bouquet, centrepiece, buttonhole, corsage, wire and tribute. Tributes carry frame shapes such as Heart, Cross, Wreath and Letter; bouquets and centrepieces carry a container style. **Do the images carry a mark?** Each image has a small Digital Florists label. Keep it in private working notes or internal mood boards. Do not use it as product photography or a client-approved design.
