It's flower expert Jane Packer's most personal book to date--and the first to focus on floral "interior design" and the art of combining colors, textures, and shapes to create a whole look or atmosphere. 65 informal yet distinctive arrangements--shown in luscious pictures by a photographer for Vogue magazine--offer something for every type of space, lifestyle, and mood. If you have an urban home, display something as vivid and energetic as the city itself---perhaps a gerbera and pepper mix in a basket. Fresh and natural is the country way, and what could be lovelier than a bright spring bouquet? By the beautiful sea, suspend glass vases from the ceiling filled with creamy hydrangeas, white love-in-the-mist, shells, and pebbles. And dress up a garden with fruits and flowers in a bowl for a dinner al fresco. Each design is more exquisite than the one before--and simple to do, too! Read Less
