how about Marigolds in the skillet
for the porch or terrace?
While scouting about the kitchen
for containers, don't overlook such
old standbys as pitchers, teapots,
mixing and fruit bowls, sugar bowls
and what-have-you.
If some of your vases are of clear
glass and you have spotted COM
mercial jar or two worthy to baSk
beside them in the vase cabinet, you
may enjoy much variation with tinted
water. For one arrangement in a
glass vase we might add red ink to
the water for a ruby-like effect. An
other time (perhaps on very hot
day. a bit of bluing could be most
fitting as a tint for the water. A
little milk added to the water with
either color will give lovely milk
glass effect. If your child will share
his box of water colors with you, the
rainbow is the limit to the choice
of color to use in glass containers.
Always fill the glass to the very brim
WHICH, yOu dIC SllollSliAS lIo SoAoA.
When you want lots of variation
for bountiful flowers, ask yourself if
you vary the way you use your flow
ers in any given container. When
you use bowl, do you always make
a well-rounded, globular effect? If
so, make point this month of using
your bowl for a flat arrangement
one which is almost like picture
painted upon the surface of the
water. Try fan of bearded iris
leaves through the center of the bowl
(cutting it into two halves) and make
a grouping of flowers on each side
against the fan background. In this
same bowl have line arrangement
today and tomorrow an arrangement
almost entirely of foliages, with per-
haps very few flowers.
With what variety our magma
tions could supply us if only we
made demands upon them! When we
do, then comes the real thrill of flow
er arrangement, making it a truly
creative experience.
