4.0 out of 5 stars Creative Floral Arranging, June 30, 2000

By	danny sanford (Waco, TX United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Creative Floral Arranging (Arts & Crafts for Home Decorating) (Hardcover)

I loved the books big, colorful illustrations. The instructions were step by step and easy to follow. The materials list for each project made it easy to get organized for the project before I started. I also found the floral arranging tips very useful. I worked at a floral shop for a brief period of time and found the instructions easier to follow than my trainer! A good book for people who love to make crafts for their homes, friends or families.

By	Pauline Jenkins (Erie Pennsylvania) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Creative Floral Arranging (Arts & Crafts for Home Decorating) (Hardcover)

The Book arrived in a timely fashion. The photograply was beautiful. However, I found it to be a coffee-table book rather than a text book which I needed.
