Beautiful arrangement, Sharon. I very much enjoy your tutorials. I like learning a more formal way of arranging. I was fortunate enough to watch your last live broadcast and plan to watch the March segment. Thank you for all your work and good advice on floral design. I watch from northern Maine USA.

Thank you Sharon, I have a narrow vase, similar colouring, with two placement areas, I’m going to turn it so I’m looking at the back and do something very similar. Lovely colour carnations.

[@sharondower]

Wonderful! I would love to have a container with 2 openings but haven't been able to find one!

[@josephinegould1720]
