Every season calls for celebrations and gift-giving, and each occasion is personal and significant, from romantic events such as weddings and Valentine's day to Christmas and new-baby celebrations. In "Festive Flowers" the visionary floral artist Paula Pryke reveals her latest designs for marking these milestones with lush, beautiful flower arrangements.
Over 60 arrangements are presented in full color, including both close-up details of the design and evocative shots of floral decorations at actual events. These are not just table arrangements, but also wreaths, corsages, garlands, and hanging bouquets that can be custom made for homes, rented halls, churches, or an outdoor wedding. Twenty projects are presented in step-by-step format to allow anyone to re-create these designs, adding personal touches along the way. Paula also provides anecdotes, tips and hints gleaned from her wealth of experience as a leading florist.
Incorporating a wide range of elements such as seeds, fruit, candles, even jelly beans, Paula's novel ideas will always delight and surprise lucky recipients or guests. "Festive Flowers" will inspire decorators, brides-to-be, and party-givers of all types to new creativity with flowers.
