Colourful Bridal Shower

In May, I had the pleasure of creating some daisy arrangements for a Kate Spade inspired bridal shower. These colourful daisies complemented the perfectly orchestrated decor of black, white (with polka dots of course) and gold. Congratulations to the soon to be bride and groom.

Large arrangement for head table. Mini and large gerbera with a cushion of green pom pom chrysanthemums

Smaller arrangements occupied the guest tables and dessert table (mini gerbera, yellow spider mum, pom pom chrysanthemums, xanadu leaf and bear grass)

Mini gerbera boutonniere for the groom to be and wrist corsage for the soon to be bride

Special Birthday's

The month of May contained various floral projects including a few one-of-a-kind birthday arrangements.

Christmas Flower Arrangements

Fresh flowers during the holiday season can brighten up a specific spot in your home or add some extra colour to a table setting.  Although the traditional colours of red and white are still extremely popular, some choose flowers to tie in with a specific colour theme.  Here are some of my creations from this holiday season. (for more detail information, see the Christmas floral arrangements page.)

Dendrobium Orchids

I enjoy working with all types of tropical flowers, and one that I find to be very versatile is the Dendrobium Orchid.  These orchid sprays are available in a variety of solid colours and some in two tone (white, light green, purple, blue, etc.). The long stem filled with flower and buds is usually a standout in any arrangement.  I used the combination of the Siam Blue variety (actual color is purple) Dendrobium with green Fuji (spider) mum and white lily to create these three arrangements.

The orchid is the focus of this upright arrangement.
