Publisher's Synopsis
Table Flowers contains an array of stunning new designs for your special event, each displaying Paula Pryke’s customary floral artistry and cutting-edge skills.
Across Table Flowers’ twenty step-by-step projects, Paula provides enormous creative scope with an impressive selection of floral ideas tailor-made for every aspect of the table: from sophisticated centrepieces to individual place settings at the dinner table; and from innovative chair backs and miniature topiary trees made with fruit and flowers, to hanging garlands from overhead lighting. With versatility always in mind, Paula then demonstrates how these beautiful ideas can be adapted to suit a host of special occasions, from the highly intimate to the grand in scale.
Effective floral design means ensuring that the material, the design and the location are harmonious –and never more so when the design is intended for table displays.
Table Flowers offers an array of exquisite design ideas, approaching each one from the basics. Paula shows how the most popular high street flowers can be augmented with flowers and foliage from the garden to create beautiful displays, and how by thinking seasonally you can use plant material when it is at its least expensive and most plentiful.
Whether you want projects you can create yourself, or ideas for a grand celebration, Paula Pryke’ Table Flowers gives you all the inspiration and practical advice you need to make a dramatic floral statement that will set the seal on any party.
