Peony Arrangement - Reloaded!

2.11.2009
This is an arrangement that has sold like hot cakes. It started out as a custom order, but so many people liked it that I listed it again on ETSY. This arrangement can be customized to a client's choice of colors. I wanted to share these pictures of my latest sale with you, because I think they have come out pretty nicely. I love the mint julep cup and think it adds a ton of elegance to any floral design.This is the first time I have been able to take decent pictures of this style of arrangement. I love the pictures and also the way the arrangement has shaped up. In fact, I am working on a similar wedding bouquet too. When its ready, I shall share it with you.Also in the works is a larger arrangement in a mint julep cup, with white peonies, green roses and lots of foliage and berries. This is the first time I am working on a white and green creation and I love the look of it. I can't wait for the peonies to dry up, so I can start putting the flowers together! :)

Meanwhile, I also attended a tropical flower class with the lovely Chenli today at the DECO Clay Craft Academy. It was SO MUCH FUN, re-doing flowers with Chenli ! The thing that strikes you first about Chenli is her resounding laugh :). It can bring cheer to the cloudiest of days :). But make no mistake - she is one hard taskmaster. She will keep correcting you till you get every petal, every texture, every shade right. And that is what I love about her! Am really looking forward to more classes from her and Yukiko - they are just pure joy, the joy that comes from creating something beautiful.

Well, I can see why it sells so well! The peony is such a stately and gorgeous blossom, and mixed with the dainty, viney tendrils like that, the whole thing is simply irresistable :)
