Home Décor with Everlasting Flower Project - 2010

The students in Flower Arranging II, practiced designing with dried and permanent botanicals for a home décor setting. Each student arrived in lab to a “surprise package” of dried or everlasting flowers. The packages included a variety of color schemes and textures. The students were challenged to design an arrangement using the materials for a home design that they would put in their own homes. Although this was added pressure, the students did a great job of creating a variety of home décor designs.
