The greys, browns, and blacks are beautiful in their own way, especially when coated with the white snow, but come this time of year, I like to see some color! Thanks for sharing, and now maybe I can justify scraping together enough spare change to "spring" for my own bouquet for Anna Rose to arrange. It's so easy to be creative with that wonderful green foam "stuff." Love it! .-= Emily Darling´s last blog ..<a href="http://strainingonward.blogspot.com/2010/02/happy-groundhog-day.html" rel="nofollow">Happy Groundhog Day!</a> =-.

I'm actually a trained florist (you know in another time period - BC - before children!) and that is an amazing arrangement for a first time - almost good enough to sell! :o) She has great height, it is even all the way around, and she used the fillers very effectively. It is a balanced, colorful, beautiful arrangement. The green stuff is called Oasis and the only thing a florist would have done different is to hide the oasis with some moss so it looked like part of the arrangement - even the pros cheat! LOL!
