Searching for inspiration to help you craft memorable florals for weddings, corporate events, or even get-togethers? Read on for four inspiring designs by our Featured Florist, Cory Christopher.
While these designs capture the season of porch pumpkins and PSLS, the underlying design concepts can be used in any season.
1. Low Boat Planter Design
A low planter filled with seasonal hues makes for a modern centrepiece that won’t block the eyelines of conversations happening across the table.
