Charlotte Moss encourages readers to bring the garden indoors with
ideas for arranging flowers, selecting containers, and placing
blossoms around the house. An inviting cluster of blooms on a guest
room s bedside table, lavish floral displays for parties and
holidays, single stems adding life to any corner of a room Moss has
been photographing her flower arrangements for over a decade. This
book is a celebration of her artistry and a testament to flowers as
part of day-to-day life. From Moss s grander displays in the city
to her more informal and breezy creations at her home in the
country, as well as in the refined interiors of her clients, the
visual result is a chronicle of the myriad ways flowers provide
inspiration indoors and out. Readers will be further motivated as
Moss describes the contributions of past tastemakers: Gloria
Vanderbilt for her ingenious use of floral patterns in her licensed
products, Pauline de Rothschild for her fantastic tablescapes,
Bunny Mellon for her profusive use of topiaries, Constance Spry for
the use of inventive containers and for her groundbreaking
artistry, and Lady Bird Johnson for her embrace of the simple,
exquisite wildflower. With nature as her muse, Moss implores us to
create the backdrop for a life well lived, imbuing every day with
flair, beauty, and elegance.
