We were asked to design a low table arrangement for in the marquee at the Lincolnshire Show for Andrew J Musson Tailors.
Red gerberas and roses surrounded by a cloud of gyp with curled aspidistra leaves displayed in a glass cube.
For the shop display we thought we would try something different. A martini vase with anthuriums in pink, white and green, aspidistra leaves and lime green midelino sticks.

Argos

These are the last three arrangements we have displayed in Argos.
This one was sent on Friday. A design to show our support for the England team, probably less said about that the better.

Mayors Ceremony

May is the annual time for a new Mayor in Lincoln.
We have been providing the Civic party with flowers for this event for a number of years.
This year one of the ladies involved particularly likes carnations and straight on from the Colombian evening with all their fabulous colours we chose these gorgeous white and purple flecked variety. We are usually asked to use a colour scheme of white and cream, council colours, but this year we could add some colour.
The posies that are presented to the 2 ladies in the Mayors party at The Guildhall.
We used the carnations, white roses, gyp and foliage tied together with a complementary lilac bow.
The table centres are on 'oasis' rings with the white and purple carnations, cordyline foliage, gyp and white sisal. To add a little bit of height to the design green midelino sticks were added in hoops around the edge.
There were 14 table rings and 2 long and low for the top table.
The top table designs had the same flowers in as the rings with some extra foliage.
One of the table rings in situ at The Lincoln County Assembly Rooms. The oil lamp is provided by the venue.
Unfortunately when we arrived to deliver these the tables were just being set up and so this is the only photo we were able to get.

Valentines Dinner




A Valentines Dinner.
The Right Worshipful The Mayor of Lincoln, Civic dinner.
We were asked to provide table centres on a Valentines theme for the above function on 12 February 2010 at the Chapter House, Lincoln Cathedral.
As is getting popular the 'Top Table' was a round table and this was designed to be slightly different from the 8 guest tables.
We used clear glass cubes, with a black tie leaf to hide the foam, as the base. Small red roses, hypericum, leucadendron, red tulips and pitto foliage made up the displays with black feathers and red midelino sticks to finish.








The small displays that were placed around the venue to add colour to the bare stone consisted of similar flowers and had a covering of red satin material around the base.
We also provided white cymbidium orchid buttonholes for all the ladies.

Glass cube arrangement


Another arrangement in a glass cube. Fresh colours of lime green, orange and yellow were used for a birthday arrangement. Shamrock chrysants, gerberas, alstromeria, carnations and spray carnations combine with apple green midelino sticks for a modern twist to a traditional shaped arrangement. The 'oasis' is covered by a green tie leaf.
These types of arrangements are gaining in popularity as 'something different' to the popular hand-tie.

We were contacted by the Lincoln Civic Party with regards to donating a raffle prize for the 'Elizabethan Evening' being held at the Cathedral. As we regularly make arrangements for them for various occasions, we were delighted to donate this design.
We received the letter a few days later and thank them for letting us know how much was raised.
