The Art of Arranging Flowers - Floral Design Guide & Techniques for Beautiful Bouquets | Perfect for Weddings, Home Decor & Special Occasions

I had just completed this beautifully written book. As the sun set, my husband and Iwere sharing a good merlot when slowly the sky began to erupt in glorious ochre, violet and rose. I was moved to recount the praises of this unusual story. I tried to explain how the florist of a small town, held the pulse of the entire community, influencing every event of their lives..first loves, dates, engagements, weddings, births, sickness, and death. Somehow she couldn't help herself find the same relationships. Along the way she was privy to the story of an astronaut who had experienced an ephimany. As he hurled through space, the meaning of the universe became clear. As I talked, I looked up into the sunset and suddenly a tall Palm nearby was lit as if hundreds of fireflies danced in the top of the fronds. Looking further ahead, Palm after Palm danced with fire. I shivered in the 90 degree Arizona evening and was moved to tears. This author got me to my soul. The story is full of surprises. Maybe, it will change your world too!
