Flora

Anybody else remember these gorgeous floral arrangement shots from domino? They are assembled right now into a great little slideshow that should provide LOTS of diy-inspiration. The image above is a favorite because the simple flowering branches create a lovely texture alongside the golden wall panel. And what a great pink vase!
Speaking of vases, the vintage-looking vase and surrounding objects make a pretty vignette with those feminine pink blooms, below.

Finally, I love the combination of baby pink roses in a sterling vessel--and chartreuse orchids in a milky white vase--in the image below, almost as much as the fretwork on the desk they're sitting on (in interior designer Mary MacDonald's office!).

Arch, I'm glad you found us, and that you enjoy these images as much as I do.
What I like about all of these arrangements is the use of a single type of flower. I find myself doing that all the time, probably because it's somewhat fool proof. Still, it's always challenging for me to get the flowers to fall into a good shape. I am always trying to create the perfect "dome" or, as shown in the second photo, achieve the right balance of leaves and blooms.
Came across your blog thru Oh Joy! and loved it. I especially love these beautiful arrangements.
Thanks for sharing!
I agree- the images you chose are beautiful! Makes me want to run out and attempt to create something like these.
Joanna and Derilyn, that's how I felt when I saw these--they just made me happy. A little dose of pretty girliness never hurt anyone!
I love seeing pinks and yellows together. They're such upbeat and pretty colors.
so pretty. i love these.
Jenn, thanks for stopping by and for your feedback! And I agree with you that pink is always appealing...
i love the first image with the flowering branches on the mantel shown in two different vases creating two completely different feels.
you can never go wrong with pink anything! great blog btw - i'll be coming by often :)
Jenn~
