Book excerpt: Kenneth Turner is the floral decorator par excellence, the unsurpassed master, who, with his unique designs, has turned a craft into an art. Here, for the first time, he describes in detail the principles and techniques behind his work. From basic skills to breathtaking grand designs, The Floral Decorator contains step-by-step instructions, over forty projects for self-contained decorations, and sumptuous illustrations of Turner's work, making it invaluable to anyone who until now has only been able to marvel at the master's creations. Turner begins with explanations of basic procedures essential for any successful decoration, whatever the size. With his inimitable enthusiasm and direct approach, he discusses the importance of color, texture and shape, and shows how to plan a design to complement its surroundings. He then goes on to demonstrate simple techniques such as wiring ingredients for displays and creating moss and wire moulds; he also explores the wide range of containers available and how to prepare them. Using a host of natural ingredients, from fresh and dried flowers to vegetables and foliage, from herbs and potpourri to shells and driftwood, Turner then creates decorations for all situations and all occasions. Around the home, be it a country cottage or a stylish town house, rooms are brought to life with garlands, table decorations, free-standing displays, mirror wreaths and more. Dinner parties large and small, formal and informal, are transformed into unforgettable events with decorations for table centerpieces, chair backs and even plates. Finally, special occasions such as weddings, anniversary parties and Christmas are celebrated in true Turner style with abreathtaking array of festive pieces, from bridal bouquets to aisle displays, scented garlands to ribboned wreaths. With helpful tips on every page, lists of ingredients, tools and accessories, and fully illustrated, clearly described projects for decorations in every section, this book will be both an inspiration and an essential practical grade for all amateur decorators and lovers of flowers.

In this unique position, she managed décor and flowers for thousands of White House events while using flowers as a strategic tool for communicating diplomatic, symbolic and policy messages. She is renowned for creating a new romantic style of flower arranging featuring free-flowing lines of vines and flowers emanating from a classical bouquet. This style is most evocative of nature and the garden, and balances a strong artistic vision with the wildness of nature. Under her leadership, Laura implemented floral artistry at the White House, designing bouquets of seasonal garden flowers in a style that is both modern and refined, yet casually elegant. She often presents her innovative arrangements in hand-made organic containers composed of leaves, branches and berries that are woven into patterns and motifs, creating integrated, cohesive displays that conjure both nature and the garden. Here, she describes her inspiration, provides tips and techniques on flower arranging and entertaining, and offers readers a fascinating behind-the-scenes glimpse into both official and private White House life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "House and Garden has recently called Constance Spry "the first superstar florist": her heyday in England lasted from the late 1920's through the '50s, during which she arranged flowers for Elsie de Wolfe, for Wallis Simpson's wedding to the Duke of Windsor, and for Elizabeth II's coronation. But what will most endear her to today's American flower lovers is her propensity for breaking rules." "Unorthodox arrangements in alternative containers were her trademark; she fearlessly utilized anything of beauty. "Perhaps," she writes, "a leaf from the vegetable garden attracts your attention, or a spray of ripe fruit. You don't stop to think that this material is labelled, so to speak, 'for eating'; you realize it is decorative, and that is enough; it suits your purpose and you use it."" "Decrying "tame vases of flowers", she mixed blooms - a fairly daring practice in her day - in order to achieve "the thrill of the beholder" that the Dutch and Flemish achieved with their still-lifes. She reacted most of all against the imposition of arbitrary rules on an activity she felt should be spontaneous and alive. She felt "strongly that the art of flower arrangement should be a means of self-expression for everyone and that nobody should be afraid to express his feeling for color and line through this medium."" "Flower Decoration reveals Constance Spry to be an English rebel with a cause and a chatty style. This, her first book, has been long out of print: it will be greeted with appreciation by today's sophisticated gardeners who, along with everyone interested in home decor, will love what HG has called her "lush, funky style". The time has come to reintroduce Constance Spry to America."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved
