Flower Arranging

I haven't been on a flower arranging workshop for over  three months and it was wonderful to be able to spend yesterday afternoon in a little village hall half an hour or so from here, in lovely company, playing with flowers.

This month Claudine picked a lazy S style - which is one of the most difficult to do.  We all groaned - including Claudine - but we did have fun.

The arrangement took a bit of a battering on the journey home - but hey ho - I still like it.
 Brenda, our tutor, got the flowers for me from a supermarket, and I love the colours.
For some reason, the camera automatically altered this photo when I saved it!  I had to close the blinds and stand the arrangement on the floor as it is very tall and I couldn't get a proper photo of it on the table.   The sun was streaming in, so I stood it on the floor and drew the blinds - they are white not blue!

  2. Great arrangement Lottie.

    I hate it when you take a photo and it changes all the colours, so annoying!!!

  6. Lottie, I'm sorry you can't comment on my blog... I've really no clue when it comes to this stuff! I thought I'd sorted it out!
    If at first you don't succeed....ask someone how! LOL!

    As for being a nurse and knowing what to do, I'm the same as any one else really, I just moan more about it as I get older. Nest thing I can hear myself saying is , "I'm **yrs old you know!".
