Some great advice in DRIED & ARTIFICIA L FLOWER ARRANGING by Harold Piercy. This 144 page oversized hardback was published in 1987. From the DJ we read, “There can be few of us who do not dream, from time to time, of having a house full of tastefully arranged flowers to brighten up dark corners, complement color schemes, or put the finishing touch to a carefully conceived window nook or table setting. Lack of time, money, or a garden often mean that flowers play an occasional rather than permanent part in our house decorations, and even the keenest and most prodigal of flower enthusiasts will find late fall and winter difficult periods for bringing color into the home. Dried and artificial flowers provide a time-honored solution to these problems, but until recently their often poor quality produced results that were scarcely better than the dark corner itself. Over the last ten years all that has changed, and the range, variety and inventiveness now applied to the creation silk flowers, and to the collection and preservation of a wide variety of fresh flowers, gives the flower arranger a wonderful palette to work from. In this beautifully illustrated book, Harold Piercy shows how many eye-catching ways there are of using dried and artificial flowers in your home. The book includes, too, a chapter on the use of long-lasting fresh materials, and a chapter containing some spectacular ideas for seasonal decorations. The writing and arrangements demonstrate all the authority you would expect from Harold Piercy’s fifty-year trade and teaching experience, and each photograph shows clearly the grace and charm for which the Constance Spry Flower School (of which he is principal) is so famous.” Great info in this book in almost new condition.
