Close Up Colour Cobinations 2014



I have a lovely new little point and shoot compact camera that I am having a great deal of fun with.  It even takes video and so I am hoping to take some working shots to post on Facebook and the Blog this year. 
Here are some lovely close up pictures of some beautiful colour combinations from our work recently. 
What do you think???











January Update

Now as you know Someflower were very busy last year and I did not manage to keep on top of my Blog during 2013.  This year is looking to be just as exciting and hectic as the calendar looks like it has measles with all the dots circled on it as to work days and confirmed wedding bookings.  So I have decided to TRY and do a monthly update on the Blog rather than a unrealistic weekly posting or worse still nothing at all. 
So Today is my first Update post for January . 
 I really hope to keep this up.....So Wish me luck in advance  xx
 
 
At the end of January we were exhibiting at Tithe Barn in Ditcham just outside Petersfield. 
 We are so privileged to have such a stunning venue on our doorstep and never tire of its beauty.  Having the opportunity to work there (lots) throughout the years we never take for granted and love the interesting ways in which our Couples choose to decorate it and express who they are on their Special Day

Cylinder Vase Display
We are always adapting designs to fit within all budgets, and this cylinder vase table centre piece was a lovely idea to give height and impact to a table in an inexpensive way. Displayed on a large mirror plate scattered with fresh flower petals or table diamonds would look stunning...plus the floral display on the top can be removed at the end of the evening and given to guests/friends/family as a gift.

This years colour theme Faye and I chose Raspberry Pink with Pistachio pale greens and white.  Vintage and English Country Garden is still very popular for 2014 but we are finding that couples are also being lovely and brave with colour themes and choices....and adding a little POP to their party.  I cannot wait to show you some pictures of a wedding we are working on in March with lots of Jewel colours .....it will look stunning against the stone walls of Tithe Barn

The lovely Mr and Mrs Riggs were our neighbours at the event, and for anyone who knows them Tea is a very important part of their lives.  They are more of a china cup couple than Foam cup....but Tea is Tea!!!!

Faces to the Names.  This is Faye and I.  (Faye is the pretty blonde one!!!)



Candelabra displays have always been very popular at weddings.  There is just something about candlelight that is just tranquil and romantic. We do lots of different things with these candelabras such as trailing ivy, a floral ring of flowers....this is a photograph of a sumptuous ball of flowers nestled into the arms of the candelabra.  Very beautiful and traditional.

As well as the lovely wedding fairs we have been delighted to meet lots of new faces.  It has been a very busy January with consultations and confirmed bookings.  We both are looking forward to working along side such lovely couples this year.
