The Flower Fix presents wild inspiration and modern arrangements by
Swallows and Damsons florist Anna Potter, with beautiful photography
by India Hobson. Blousy blooms, speckled branches, rich foliage, and
delicate petals; nature has the power to inspire and energize, calm
and soothe, focus and still. Anna has harnessed this magic with 26
tailor-made combinations of flowers to bring a floral boost to your
home, no matter what your mood. With easy-to-find seasonal blooms,
found items such as twigs and dried fruit, and any assortment of
containers, discover how simple it is to bring a little bit of
nature’s mystery into the everyday. Spanning all seasons and
including both larger installations and smaller, simpler projects,
there is something for anyone looking to play, experiment, and create
atmosphere with flowers. Get your daily flower fix with these and more
inspiring arrangements: Inspire Playfulness is a spring arrangement to
bring joy, featuring lilac, roses, ranunculus, poppy, narcissi, and
forget-me-nots. Flowers for Gratitude is a mix of summer’s bounty to
inspire thankfulness, including garden rose, daucus, echinacea, and
chocolate sunflower. Find Beauty in the Everyday is a colorful
arrangement to bring a fresh perspective, featuring autumn foliage,
hydrangea, dahlia, crab apple, and rosehip. The Shape of
Self-Expression is a circular wreath design to express individuality,
with holly, lamb’s ear, yellow holly berries, twigs and dried
seedheads, and ivy berries. Each project lists the equipment, flowers,
and foliage needed to start the project along with step-by-step
instructions. You’ll also find a guide to basic flower arranging;
notes on color palettes and how to use color; and a flower glossary
listing the color, seasonal availability, and vase life of each
flower. Be led by the flowers, foliage, stems, follow their shapes and
form, feel their weight and heft to create versions of these gorgeous
arrangements that are uniquely your own.
