New Dried Flower Designs

The final finishing touch to a room is an aptly designed flower arrangement.

Just as decorating styles have changed within the home, so this has had its influence on floral displays. The "New Flower Designs" series of guides for the homemaker aims to be current, and provides 25 easy-to-follow projects in each book. This title introduces a range of imaginative and contemporary design ideas to enhance the home or create for a special occasion.

In addition to the step-by-step projects, a comprehensive section is included on both selecting the flowers and other plant material most suitable for drying, and on the preserving techniques required. A final chapter on colour also helps in choosing materials to match different colour schemes.
