The Beginner's Guide to floristry is a mix of things, firstly it is very helpful in terms of labelling items and basic instructions for the reader. However, despite this newer edition having a more modern front cover, the designs inside are a little dated and could do with being photographed again and perhaps trying out some more fashionable pieces. This being said it is a useful guide to have and covers a lot of the general things a beginner needs to know.
