Featuring more than 400 color photographs and diagrams, this book explains the fundamentals of composition in the seven basic arrangements and details the application of basic styles to particular cases.
This is a great step-by-step book for those of us truely at the beginning of learning flower arranging. The pictures take you from flower to flower on how to place each one. The arrangements are very simple and unimaginative, but very easy to follow. There are great models for arranging in different kinds of vessels, some a litte too odd for me. (Like arranging in a soup ladle.) The biggest missing piece in this book is the preparation work necessary to make your arrangements look fresh for as long as possable.

Excellent book for beginners

This was my first book I purchased when I was ready to "experiment" in making a floral arrangement. I had success from the beginning because the book clearly explains the instructions with beautiful color photos. They have several floral arrangements,coursages,bouquets and even wreaths, all with instructions and step by step pictures to go with it. I love it, I would recommend it to anyone that needs a guide in making floral arrangments for the first time. It is also a good resource book for experienced florists.
