{ The Art of Chic Flower Arranging }

These are some images of flower arrangements that caught my eye on my latest trip to LA and Dallas. I was attracted to these because of their simplicity and freshness. I always prefer flower arrangements to be showcased as a single variety and of the same color. And of course you can never go wrong with an all white flower arrangement. I keep an assortment of different sizes and shapes of clear glass containers in my pantry ready to put any length of fresh stems in. Make sure to cut the bottoms 1/2" off the stems before you put them in water. It will help to keep them fresher longer.<br /><br /><div><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTQRUoUg588L06TSB301vKJvZ0l2VIG3vWZL9NBUoarkzmC2P7w4u6SHW8nIUtcmUtM_sB2qnhooxb-k_J7Lepk4TslHwcTfaRVIkV8UzdnjVRdrYcMPfaShyphenhyphenuAGgf_RdQzklHh5I7eVg/s1600-h/Lilies+LA.jpg" target="blank"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5159561709531769618" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhTQRUoUg588L06TSB301vKJvZ0l2VIG3vWZL9NBUoarkzmC2P7w4u6SHW8nIUtcmUtM_sB2qnhooxb-k_J7Lepk4TslHwcTfaRVIkV8UzdnjVRdrYcMPfaShyphenhyphenuAGgf_RdQzklHh5I7eVg/s1600/Lilies+LA.jpg" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a> A simple bunch of lilies in a clear footed vase sitting on a bathroom countertop at <a href="http://www.countryfloors.com/" target="_blank">Country Floors </a>showroom on Melrose in LA.<br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX7Syzo5iq31qPFw-cwRXExZEe7YMFulF52-gYFBjIV3Hk0LhMq64RriAR6_ZU0GD2sPkxTIY3QKbgwABLFiu1lHZY6pjV16pEpNlZtPNlMMIU38nXK-ZNv1_xq0cZ50QuAECfXeWbWj0/s1600-h/Ornamental+Cabbage+LA.jpg" target="blank"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5159561649402227458" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjX7Syzo5iq31qPFw-cwRXExZEe7YMFulF52-gYFBjIV3Hk0LhMq64RriAR6_ZU0GD2sPkxTIY3QKbgwABLFiu1lHZY6pjV16pEpNlZtPNlMMIU38nXK-ZNv1_xq0cZ50QuAECfXeWbWj0/s400/Ornamental+Cabbage+LA.jpg" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a> Another arrangement at Bunches of Stocks in the Lobby of our Hotel in Dallas, simply tied and put in a vase on a base of charcoal.<br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFYczKlBnhf_0JmPQwI9tChruOizLvNSiZor5nA1tLTQZuM7i8RBjVrfwswLvvR5gSeJd-j9E5Uu17OD3Dj4o46ovFzlLVRnfF4ptB9zr4mIDEUZuzwhWF8deDSrAo4WUBFgkzcvGS02o/s1600-h/Roses+Dallas.jpg" target="blank"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5159561567797848818" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFYczKlBnhf_0JmPQwI9tChruOizLvNSiZor5nA1tLTQZuM7i8RBjVrfwswLvvR5gSeJd-j9E5Uu17OD3Dj4o46ovFzlLVRnfF4ptB9zr4mIDEUZuzwhWF8deDSrAo4WUBFgkzcvGS02o/s400/Roses+Dallas.jpg" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" /></a> Roses beside the elevator in our Hotel in Dallas.
