لوّن لي بالورود

I've been using the monochromatic designs for dinner party centerpieces and the step-by-step photos make it surprisingly easy to pull off. The seasonal breakdown by color is a nice touch too.

The monochromatic arrangements in here are stunning, and the step-by-step photos actually taught me how to keep a whole bouquet in one color family without it looking flat. I've already made three of the designs with grocery store flowers and they turned out better than anything I used to buy.

The monochromatic section completely changed how I shop for stems — I did an all-cream arrangement for a dinner party last weekend and it looked like it came from a florist. The photos are gorgeous too, so it doubles as a coffee table book when it's not on my workbench.
