That is beautiful Sharon.. I'm going to keep a look out for a container that shape and give it a go 😍

I'm a bit obsessed with charity shops and car boots sales!!

Love to learn more about historical floral designs. I've search for books on historical flower arranging with no success.

[@sharondower]

Try a NAFAS book, I've linked it in my comment above

[@reneebetcke5990]

Is it possible to get this book if you live in the US?

[@sharondower]

I'm sure they will ship to the US. Give them a call

Lovely Sharon, I would love to know how to create a flower ball centrepiece, I think they are stunning.

[@sharondower]

Great suggestion!

[@arlenegamble1974]

Love this design. Would like to see a spiral design and an all foliage design. Thank you

[@sharondower]

Thanks again for watching, I love the darker foliage

[@dvcheetham]

That was beautiful. I did try the heart arrangement for valentine. But couldnt find the hearts , so used a small raffier heart but it didn't work . But will try this Georgian style . Thank you for inspiring me. I do like to try thing. .

[@sharondower]

Well done for having a go, its a shame you couldn't get the right size hearts, but keep looking, you might find something soon.

[@kubrakhandwala1799]

That’s a beautiful arrangement, Sharon! I have a question about using chicken wire. Do you treat it to prevent it from rusting in the water?

[@sharondower]

If it's galvanised wire, it doesn't rust. If I'm reusing it, I would clean it in hot soapy water first.

[@alisonjackson2053]

Enjoyed the idea of this being influenced by historical design. Can you recommend any books on the subject?

[@sharondower]

Thanks 😊

Have only just started watching your videos Sharon, I am learning so much. I have to do an arrangement for WI competition at the end of May I will be using a small christening bible in white with cream white and maybe lemon flowers I think the pussy willow would add a lovely touch do you think this would work with the tiny bible in the middle ? Or maybe your oval Easter design with pussy willow.

[@sharondower]

So many choses, but I'm sure you will do an amazing job, just think your design needs to be in scale with the bible.

[@lynnelane7964]

@@sharondower Wow thank you for such a quick response, Yes i will take that into consideration . Many thanks
