Forever Flowers: The New Approach to Decorating with Fake Flowers

I had been thinking about buying this book for a long time, having seen it advertised in the Peony (a faux flower company) catalogue, but I wasn't prepared to pay the £25 RRP for it. Just as well I didn't, because although it is a very nicely produced book with lots of photographs of beautiful faux flower arrangements, there are only a couple of pages about making your own arrangements, and those seem to assume you are an expert in flower arranging already. It really is little more than a marketing exercise. Even the names on the list of suppliers are nearly all Peony outlets. Rather disappointing and not much help to me, I'm afraid

There are a lot of really nice photos but there is only a small section (just a few pages) at the back on tools and technique. It is really more of an ideas book and not really a 'how-to' book.Cheers,Joy
