Happy Birthday Arrangement for Barbara!

My friend Sheryl and her sister Carolyn wanted to give their Mom an extra-special, everlasting gift of clay flowers to celebrate a milestone birthday! With the colour direction of white/creme and orange, I was given artistic freedom to create a low-and-long arrangement for the dining room table.

Using roses in various shades of orange and creamy white roses with slightly tinted centers, this arrangement is very elegant punctuated with the creamy gardenias. I have recently modified my gardenia making technique and am THRILLED with how this arrangement turned out.

Shhhhh, the birthday party isn't until Sunday. Happy Birthday Barbara!

A Clay Flower Bouquet

I am posting this shot because I wanted to show you how realistic the clay flowers can look! I think they look very real, cello wrapped and ready to go! These single rose stems are going to a wedding, to be handed out to some special guests as part of the ceremony, one by one. There won't be a dry eye in the church. The victorian garden roses have more of a ruffled center - perfect and elegant. Best wishes to Jessica and Martin on their wedding day and always!
