Simply Elegant Flowers With Michael George by Michael George, Bob Shuman, Martha Stewart (Foreword by)

From the Publisher

This is more than a coffee table book on beautiful flower arrangements. Simply Elegant Flowers with Michael George combines the stunning photography of some of Michael's most popular arrangements along with step-by-step instructions that teach readers how to recreate his simple yet elegant style—right down to the signature twist of the stems. Structured unlike other flower arranging books, Simply Elegant Flowers walks the reader through a year of flowers versus arranging projects by color or simplicity. Taking an organic approach to flower arranging, the author teaches readers how to welcome flowers into their everyday life. Throughout the book, Michael shares his philosophy for living and creating with flowers.

Constance Ashmore - Library Journal

George, a well-known fashion florist in New York, here shares some of the secrets of his signature style. He specializes in elegant "bunch" arrangements of one color or one flower type. When set in clear containers, the meticulously placed flower stems become part of the arrangement. Step-by-step projects are arranged by season using available blooms from florists. The results are something that anyone could do once the arranging tricks are known. This is a lovely book that should appeal to public library users.
