Bellagio

One of my favorite places to visit is the conservatory at the Bellagio in Las Vegas. I absolutely adore the wonderful colors and amazing beauty that their floral designers create.

I also love how they can take flowers that are already so wonderful and use them in a sculptural way. My newest favorite is how they used the painting (above photo) as inspiration for the piece in the picture below. Keep in mind the piece below is probably 6 feet long and 4 feet wide.

This bird is made completely made out of moss, greens, flowers, and other natural elements. I just love flowers as art!

By now you should all know that my talent is NOT in photography!
I do however love to take photos of flowers for ideas and inspiration. I love to see the talent and creative skills that other designers are using. These photos are from the Hilton hotel in Atlanta where we were staying and attending a business conference.

These fun contemporary arrangements were found in the Hilton Hotel in Atlanta.

The Omni Hotel by far as more impressive flower arrangements...umm, and in my opinion better customer service than the Hilton.

I just ran across this photo I took last summer.
I love the contrast between the natural elements and the elegant lilies. Simply stunning!

Travel Photos!

Here are some of the photos I have recently collected on my trips. Several are in Vegas and some in Nashville. Here is a sampling!! Collecting photos of arrangements whether it be online, photographs, or magazines is a great way to find inspiration for your own new and exciting works of floral art.
