Whether it's a simple bouquet in the kitchen or a vase with a single rose on the beside table, flowers always add warmth and colour to any home. Bursting with vivid photos and charming hand-drawn illustrations by author Diane Wagner, this newest Victoria volume ushers readers into the wonderful world of flowers. Arranged by season, from the new blooms of spring to winter blossoms, it takes the mystery out of flower selection and arranging. An introduction covers hardy, delicate, garden and other florals and foliage, as well as palettes and basics like bows and wiring. More than 30 projects provide challenges at all skill levels: there are even wedding arrangements for the more experienced! Fill a country jug with summer roses or create a festive Christmas tabletop centerpiece. Bouquets, boutonnieres, mini flowerpots, pomanders and wreaths will entice would-be arrangers all year round!
