This coffee-table book on flower arranging contains easy step-by-step instructions on how to achieve beautiful flower arrangements for a variety of vases and containers. Birkenhead Blooms contains information on what equipment is required, what preparation is necessary, the use of colour, and how to make arrangements work in differently shaped vases, e.g. cubes and tubes, tall and slim, wide and flat. Also included are inspirational full-colour photographs of the steps and the gorgeous end results. Chapters are organised by shape of the vase, making it easy for readers to find a suitable arrangement to fit the vase/s they have at home. Some of the arrangements use as few as two or three blooms, thus keeping down costs while still adding a touch of elegance to a room. This title will appeal to people seeking inspiration to create modern and stylish flower combinations, as well as anyone looking for success with arranging flowers for their home with relatively little effort and expense, and without daunting instructions and mountains of supplies!

Alyson Kessel spent almost 30 years in garment design and manufacture. For the past six years, she has been the contract florist for the Birkenhead House and Villa in Hermanus. With no formal floristry training, she is not bogged down and confined by old-fashioned rules and regulations. She describes her style as minimalistic yet luxurious, quirky but pretty.
