On the fence.....

This is a great coffee table book .... the photographs are beautiful, the quotes fitting and Ill probably get many years of enjoyment out of looking at it from time to time. However, I thought this book (through its photos) was going to give me some ideas on simple flower arranging and container choices. Instead, the photos are of macro shots of flowers, so close up that you really cant see the detail of the containers at all. What this book has done is given me some insight on some different flowers to ask for when I go to the market to pick them up, or plants to ask the nursery about when I pick out flowers for my garden next spring. Anyone who enjoys flowers will love this book, just don't get it with the hopes that you will get any arranging ideas from it. All in all, a gorgeous book that puts me in a cheery mood just by looking at it :)

Beautiful book, Very Inspirational!

For the Painters out there who love the world of colour this book is a must have.

A gorgeous, inspiring book for anyone...

...especially flower lovers. The photographs are stunning and visually delicious; the quotes fitting. The commentary is appropriately minimalist, so as not to distract from the images, it seems. I love this book -- simply beautiful.
