Summer Anniversary Party

 

I never posted photos from this Surprise Anniversary Party that I did back in May. I blogged on the prep, but failed to post any photos when I finished. So here are some photos for your enjoyment.




This was in the master bathroom. This is a great vase from Roost - easy to arrange, even if you aren't a professional. You just prop flowers between the silver twigs.


These were on the table in the Entrance Hall.


I redid these 'everlasting' arrangements to make them taller and seasonless. Previously there were  some short topiaries with pine cones and red berries. HUGE improvement.


And this potted orchid on the coffee table in the living room.


The client has a collection of goblets that we used on the table.

On sideboard.


An orchid in the power room staked with a cast iron leaf.


And the two HUGE orchid arrangements in the Fortunata clover leaf bowl. These were going on two tables outside...so once again..I don't have a photo with the total effect.

Just another Wednesday Night - Flower Prep!

I"m working on flowers for a surprise anniversary party for a client. Last night I tried to get all my planted and faux arrangements out of the way, so I can work with the cut flowers tonight.


These are faux topiaries for a mantle. Made with foliage, berries and hydrangeas.

We are doing all white orchids in some Fortunata planters for the the outside tables. 
And the plum one is going in the half bath. 



The one in the bamboo planter is going on the new coffee table in the living room. 
And the one in the zinc is going in a bookshelf in the office.

Can't wait to show the finished product!
Many more arrangements left to do!!!
