During our recent trip to St. Louis for Thanksgiving, we received a little flower arranging 101 with my Mom, Lucia, who is pretty creative and talented in floral design...even the kids got involved, collecting leaves, flowers, fruit, etc. for our centerpiece.
A few photos of our fun memories...

After Lucia gave us some quick tips, including how to deal w/ the oasis, wire-wrapping leaves, fruit, etc....our final product! |
