Class: Celebration of Spring

This is a new vase and I'm just starting to play around with it. I'm on the edge of loving it and being repelled by it. It's pretty wild. Like Aladdin's lamp on drugs. But the color and the way the glass plays with the light is kind of cool.

Thinking about low containers these days as a new class is coming up in May focusing of the use of this type of container and metal "pin frogs". The arrangement pictured used the frog for some elements and not others, as the stems were thin. Stay tuned for more.




Class: Celebration of Spring:
Here we are in the season of an abundance of blossoms! Heavy flower and branches are a challenge in low containers. Metal pin "frogs" are one of the infrastructures that hold everything in place. We'll use the glorious bounty of spring to learn how to use those to make arrangements with a sense of movement. As Mother's Day is the following day, this could be great to do for your Mom or with your Mom, but everyone is welcome!

These classes are nearly impossible to find on this site. That's supposed to change in the fall and the registration will morph into something user friendly!

You're welcome to pay in class, if you let me know that you're coming.
