I've just completed my first ever flower arrangement...and it doesn't matter how many times I say that phrase, it still sounds surreal!
Persuaded by one my lovely neighbours to have a go, I went along after work and gave it my best shot - and after lots of trimming and snipping Im quite surprised ( to be honest I thought it would be so bad they'd ask me to leave!)
I thought I might be asked to do a small thing, maybe in a vase. Instead I was given a pedestal and my display was huge...
It's not as entirely green as it looks but the lilies are yet to open. The Solomons seal was cut straight from our garden.
And the point of all this floral madness? Our villages flower festival is this weekend, so if you're passing Rudston, East Yorkshire drop in and see if my display is still holding up, if the lilies have opened or just enjoy the tea and cakes...

ReplyDeleteOh,E, I'm so sorry that I've been so busy that I didn't see this earlier; if I'd known I would have popped along - I'm kicking myself now. It looks a fabulous arrangement and I bet that when those lilies were out it both looked and smelled gorgeous. I hope it all went well... x
