Descriptions

The use of flowers in the home illustrates the mood-enhancing powers of colour. A floral display is the simplest way of changing the atmosphere of an interior. The palest of pink creates a feeling of calm and serenity. Hot colours like bright pink usually stand out and demand more attention than cooler shades like lilac. This book shows in detail the fundamental use of pink in floral arrangements, whether it is using it repetitively, in abundance of shades or simply as an understatement of interior chic. From simple posies to large pedestal arrangements, from button holes to candle centrepieces, Paula's rich repertoire of designs and her intuitive use of pink, in every guise, sets this book aside as the ultimate in feminine style and home elegance. Paula Pryke is one of the most famous and respected florists in the world. She runs a successful flower business that has a reputation for innovative and brilliantly colourful floral designs. Paula launched her internationally successful Flower School in London in 1994 and students from all over the world - including Europe, Japan, South Africa and the USA - come to study with her. Paula's floral talents and teaching skills are in constant demand and she frequently lectures on floristry and gives live demonstrations around the world, incuding in North America, South America, Europe and Asia.Paula has written nine best-selling books, including The New Floral Artist, Flower Innovations, Simple Flowers, Candles, Wreaths and Garlands, Classic Paula Pryke, Wedding Flowers and Flower School. She continues to take a hands-on approach at her design studio in Islington, London. more..
