autumn art
I am not a floral designer, and my bouquets for the teachers didn't look like masterpieces.
But the process itself... I played, and played, and played with dahlias til it got dark. So, the following pictures do not necessarily show the final arrangements.

It was so nice to see the teachers' smiles.
I will be happy to share them with Mark.

I love Dahlias - they're such a good plant for this time of year :)
ReplyDeleteNow that does look like fun! You must have had a blast arranging these most agreeable vase inhabitants. Such a variety too. Lucky teachers. :-)

Your arrangements are beautiful...the meaning behind them makes them all the more special!!
ReplyDeleteYour Dahlias are so bright and cheery. Every picture is wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI think your bouquets are lovely! I am guessing the teachers were thrilled to have something so pretty on their desks!
ReplyDeleteThose dahlias just shine in your lovely bouguets. I think you need to join a garden club. Do you suppose you could arrange from there for my garden club here?;)

Hi Tatyana - lucky teachers, what a bunch of beauties. I don't know anything about floral arranging principles but just figure nice flowers are always lovely to give and recieve! Happy 1st day of school to you and the family!
ReplyDeleteYour bouquets are simply beautiful and luscious, if I can use his word. I love seeing dahlias on your site. You love them so much and that shows in the way you present them.
ReplyDeleteWOW! What a feast for the eyes!
ReplyDeleteAs a former teacher, I know I would have been so appreciative of such a beautiful and thoughtful gift to start the year. They're gorgeous, Tatyana!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bouquets to those very lucky teachers
ReplyDeleteI thought they were beautiful in the garden, but the bouquets you made are even better! I bet you made a few teachers pretty darn happy with those.
ReplyDeleteTatyana your arrangements are as lovely as any "professional" and even lovelier as your flowers are so stunning. I love flower arrangements with mostly one variety of blossoms. What abundance! What lucky teachers!!! How good to honor them for they have one of the most important and difficult jobs and are not always appreciated enough!
ReplyDeleteAll of the bouquets are spectacular. They must have been so pleased!
