5.0 out of 5 stars A great book for beginners., 26 May 2001

By A Customer

I can't put this book down! It is wonderful with sections for wedding bouquets,the corporate office, hand held arrangements,wreaths,sympathy flowers...everything. The glossy, colourful closeups and fresh flowers readily available make this a book I will always go back to for inspiration and techniques.The back section gives excellent instruction on weaving, plaiting, covered containers,painted flowers, and each design has a professional tip.In hardback, keep it on your coffee table and drool over it everytime you sit down.

1.0 out of 5 stars Rather pretentious designs of little practical value., 25 Nov 2000

By A Customer

Regrettably all the designs are left totally in the shade by any number of modern Dutch and other European florists. However, it makes a passable if expensive coffee table book.Look elsewhere for inspiration!

Found book quite informative and was just what I was looking for although it doesn't have as much information I didn't think as in the beginners guide. Read more
