I found the arrangements to be appalling. However, if you are looking for old colonial garden style, you might feel differently. If you haven't done large floral pieces requiring mechanics, you could learn a lot from the instructions in this book.

A beautiful book with home decor, gardening, tablescapes, crafts with step by step instructions. Recipes and menus. Plus ideas for holidays and seasonal weddings.
