Review:

Unlike the dull, brownish-yellow dried flowers of a decade or two ago, today's dried flowers are vibrant, natural, and fresh-looking. This lovely book is ample evidence of this change, with stunning arrangements in vivid reds, deep purples, bright pinks, and crisp whites. The author provides good general coverage of planning the design, drying the flowers at home (they can also be purchased), and the basics of making an arrangement. Much of the book is devoted to directions for making eight specific projects, from beautiful natural looks to elegant symmetrical configurations to a charming topiary. A final section presents a directory of dried flower types, grouped by color, to help in selecting materials for various types of arrangements.
