Like the author's exquisite first book, Bringing Nature Home, this
much-awaited follow-up title presents stunning arrangements and
ideas for interiors inspired by the beauty of flowers. Ngoc Minh
Ngo has recorded the work of artists, designers, and tastemakers
who demonstrate the many ways that flowers can enhance our homes
and work spaces. Each chapter focuses on a unique way to
incorporate floral designs into interiors, from flower arrangements
made from foraged greenery to wall painting evoking Monet's water
lilies to paper flowers that never lose their vibrancy. Renowned
photographer Oberto Gili fills his house in Italy with treasures
from his bountiful garden that inspire his work, and landscape
designer Miranda Brooks puts to use her passion for all things
botanical in the decoration of her beautiful Brooklyn home. With
exceptional photography that captures the beauty of these
flower-inspired homes and text that shares how these imaginative
artists and designers achieved their botanical creations, this is
an irresistible book for flower lovers, decorators, and homeowners.
Sometimes love can bloom where you least expect it... For Sarah
Peterson, it's time for change. Coming out of a dead end
relationship and having had enough of city life, she just needs to
escape and have a fresh start - a new job, a new home and a new
lifestyle. So when her Auntie Kay unexpectedly offers her the
opportunity to take over her flower shop, Seaside Blooms, the
timing could not be more perfect. She could escape to the beautiful
seaside town of Whitsborough Bay, start a new chapter in her life -
and learn how to run a business! But, as she packs up her life in
London, she isn't prepared for the discovery of a clairvoyant
reading that's been missing for twelve years. All of the
predictions have come true, except one: she's about to meet the man
of her dreams. Oh, and his name is Steven... As she prepares for
the biggest move of her life, Sarah can't help but wonder if
Seaside Blooms could be a new beginning for love too? A warm,
uplifting novel of love, friendship and destiny from top 10
bestseller Jessica Redland. New Beginnings at Seaside Blooms is a
new, revised and updated edition of a novel previously published as
Searching For Steven. What readers are saying about New Beginnings

the residents of Whitsborough Bay' Frasers Fun House 'The author
