Pandemic silver linings

Here's my latest Bucket of Blooms project. 

First the bucket:

You can see the colours and different shapes and textures. The florist's skill is in putting the flowers together.

The florist used a wider shorter ceramic vessel whereas I used a taller skinnier one so I adapted the lesson to my vase's different shape.

I love the contrast with the silver of the vase and the asymmetry of the arrangement. I love this new thing I'm learning.

My neighbours stumbled on a fire pit for our back area and it's perfect! Several of us hung out on Friday enjoying the warmth of the fire in the slight evening chill of an LA autumn.
