The theme on FLOWERS this time is called 'A Profusion of Tulips!'
Sometimes it can be a bit scary to use a lot of colour - especially if you use a lot of it and mix it all up - like I have done here.
I decided to go for colour and not hold back! A mix of different coloured tulips - but mixed with plain green foliage. Here I have used Pistacia - that has small green leaves and two small date palm leaves.
I put the arrangement in a blue glass container - put that on a ceramic blue and white plate from Spain and underneath it all a very colourful Swedish rag rug.
Lets pretend its spring and go for colour all the way - absolutely no holding back!
Titti Malmberg - my Swedish based collaborator who I work alongside on FLOWERS - has also created a blog post over on her blog HWIT BLOGG - so please follow the link and go over and see what she has done.
We also have a special board over on Pinterest with images from FLOWERS.
Have a Very Happy Floral Day!
I will see you later in the week.

Ingrid, it seems as if the person who wove that rug was inspired by tulips! And so, it's grand to have the rug add to the beauty of your arrangement.
ReplyDeleteWe are lucky today to have escaped the full power of the snowstorm that began yesterday morning.
Spring will eventually arrive, but it's a good idea to find some tulips to help us with the interval.

Tulipaner er bare superherlige. Jeg liker den blomsten såååå godt. Herlig rustikke er de.
