A Whisper of Pink
All shades and hues of pink can be found in this natural dried floral wreath created by Monches Farm floral designer Sue Morgan. Blush pink dried peony blossoms, deep burgundy dried roses, claret banded nigella seedpods and porcelain pink glossy pepperberries all nestle amongst the varied green tones of dried salal and eucalyptus leaves and fern fronds, offset by the white of dried statice flowers. Textural contrasts are provided by the airy seed heads of dried grasses and feathery fern fronds resting next to the bolder foliage of salal and the large, lush peony flowers and buds. A celebration of spring!
 

To create this wreath Sue used the following dried materials, glued onto the natural twig base in the order listed:

28" twig wreath
6 stems dyed & preserved Kiwi salal leaves
7 pink peony blossoms
5 burgundy rose blossoms
2 stems pink rice flower (divided into 9 smaller bunches)
