Ta-da! So here're the pictures that you've been waiting! Finally, I presented this floral design program for the Southern Chapter of American Institute of Floral Designers, Charlottesville, VA this weekend. I presented with three other talented designers in Maryland, Terry Godfrey, AIFD, Lori Heimes, AIFD, Elle Seagraves, AIFD. I was in charge of Winter of the four seasons. So, here's me beaming big smile after my show and recap for you! Winter in Maryland(note written by Bethany Karn) "Homebound" Illuminating the darkest season of the year with flowers, Jeanne starts the show with a cozy color study of intimate winter interiors. Combining rich and luscious shades of burgundy, plum, berry, moss green, blue violet, navy blue and fawn, with warm wollen textrues, Ha creates the intimate feel of a shared family dinner or a drink shared with frineds in front of a fire. The accent is on warmth, relaxation and enjoyment. -With that said, I created this funky and warm bouquet incorporated with wool and yarn. That's my intensive color study. and I showed a companion centerpiece and a big showy version of the bouquet. Almost look like a Kenturky Durby hat! "Icy Drippy Icicles" The still and frozen deep winter is on display in the second portion of the Ha's winter program with the hushed yet thrilling color combinations of white and green. Cascading floral arrangements with birch bark and evergreen boughs mimic the silent beauty of a snowy woodland scene. -So I brought this set of three tall cylinder pieces with flowing over green hanging amaranthus, strings of mini acorns, strings of white dendrobium orchids, with garden roses and helebora. and also a little woody bridal bouquet. "Urban Organic Chic" The thrill of a night out in the big city, dinner in a chic restaurant, an excuse to where a cocktail dress and impossibly high heels on a chlly night are all represnted in the final portion of the program with contemporary designs. An intensive study of avant-garde use anthuriums. Metallic finishes, minimal color palette, unusual patterns, and geometric shapes contribute to a sleet and sexy silouette of an exceptional outing. -My cocktail table pieces, set of two, are done as a study of anthurium. I layed the anthuriums as scales on the cylinder containers and kept the thin cylinder shape all the way up. Also my signature carnation spheres on teh disco ball strings with amazing variegated monstera foliages and midori anthurium. Call for the party! And of course I had an amazing recharging time with all these amazing designers, Phil Rulloda, Sarah Horne, and others.
