For the suggested self-made containers – colour photography provides a breakdown of how the container is made until its completion/final design and is supported by a comprehensive description of the construction process.
The focus of the materials used is that they are inexpensive; some purchased from pound shops or from regular floral wholesalers.
Booklet-1 is written for Contemporary floral designers and for those wishing to increase their floral design skills.
