5.0 out of 5 stars Has weathered the test of time well, May 12, 2002

Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Flower Decoration (Hardcover)

Recently brought back into print, British flower arrangement expert Constance Spry's Flower Decoration is enhanced with a new preface by Michele Tucker and continues to enjoy remarkable status as a landmark book of sophistication, ingenuity, and a willingness to bend the rules in search of beauty. Individual chapters look in depth at different highlights a proper arrangement can bring, focusing alternately on flowers of every color, flowers for weddings, decorations specific to Christmas gathering, office parties, festive gatherings, restaurant celebrations, and much more. Black-and-white photographs round out this superb treatise which has weathered the test of time well. Flower Decoration is essential reading for amateur and professional flower arrangers, whether for everyday interior adornment or special occasion celebrations.
