I had enough flowers left over from the funeral piece this week that I wanted to do something egg-shaped for Easter. I picked up some pink spray roses and tulips at the supermarket, and the rest is what I still had on hand. This does not make for the freshest arrangement, but I still think there's a loveliness to it.
And after I finished this piece I had extra pinks and still had some aspidistra leaves. I threw this mini together for my mother's vanity.

Up for bid
I created these arrangements for a charity auction last week. When I'm left to my own devices I always seem to gravitate toward the Hogarth curve and the Phoenix design. They're just such statement shapes, and make it so easy to showcase gorgeous flowers.
I could have done without wiring all those bells of ireland though. Being phototropic they will bend toward the light, even after they are cut. So if I want them to stay put, they must be wired.

This is what I call a WIP

Work in progress
Getting my feet of the ground is slow.
But trust me, I've been working my tail off.
There should be more photos soon, but here's what today has been full of, much to my children's dismay.
I always try to get everything done that I can before I have the live flowers on hand. If I'm to deliver the freshest product, I need to be able to work fast and not spend any time on projects that could have been completed in advance.
