From Sisters Nineties Literary Group Book Review Editor

Wreaths & Bouquets
I have several Paula Pryke books on flower arranging that are outstanding, but this one fell short. There was nothing that that stood out in this books for me. I am a professional silk flower designer, so I am often looking for something that is over the top. This book did not meet my expectations or needs. I would have liked to been able to see at least 3 wreath images.
