The Flower Arranger The Flower Arranger is the magazine of NAFAS, the UK’s largest selling Floral Design Magazine. It is full of inspiration, useful tips, techniques and step by step projects from floral artists, which enables you to create your own arrangements, or just admire the work you see.
The Summer Flower Arranger magazine was delivered in early April. It proves to be another excellent issue with many of the designs featuring the vibrant colours of summer, or the cooling green and white. Dried flowers are enjoying a resurgence and suggestions are given for their use. Container choices is an interesting look at using dishes with stems to enhance your flower designs. The photographs of the flower festival at Salisbury Cathedral are inspirational, linking the work of local artists with the floral installations. There is also an article on York Gate Garden in Leeds, which is so close to us and has 14 garden rooms to explore. It is open Wednesday to Sunday 10.30 - 3.30.
