This year, I was inspired by the watercolor above painted by Anne Rogers. To me, the simple landscape was beautiful. With its expansive green lawn, it reminds me of one of the golf courses in town that whenever I drive past it, I vow to take up the sport just to enjoy a close up view of the immaculately landscaped grounds. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU9fRJCDLju7GLdcWCA9K4RyQA8Wl5HGQvaMHvekpBJcX96gV1izxqHKVQXFIO8QR3NnPK1U9xzvcdt_ckdP1gSPeEocL1diob0bV6479thU7LKGB02Bxs3VSOpzOWtLaOiTV8wa7QUc07/s1600/orchids-art+in+bloom-yblacker.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU9fRJCDLju7GLdcWCA9K4RyQA8Wl5HGQvaMHvekpBJcX96gV1izxqHKVQXFIO8QR3NnPK1U9xzvcdt_ckdP1gSPeEocL1diob0bV6479thU7LKGB02Bxs3VSOpzOWtLaOiTV8wa7QUc07/s1600/orchids-art+in+bloom-yblacker.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">I chose to combine a trio of orchid plants adorned with yellow twigs to represent the small patch of trees in the center of the painting.

This is probably a result of my work schedule taken up more of my free time, but it is still a good example of how a simple flower can add beauty and drama without the fuss. Anyone can do this!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNkraHJO8JEO4Lziv9UKSPxgzvU57k5pdhzpnmusgaDXFuWea_WwDmIOqtExgTgWXtUkSh1vzeTDFWOMzso4qZVUJKFhYhM3zXd6TPI3Dy2IZHzocRnXikm69YF1tQtrcQpaIbjR4B57yM/s1600/Screen+shot+2014-04-24+at+8.46.50+AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhNkraHJO8JEO4Lziv9UKSPxgzvU57k5pdhzpnmusgaDXFuWea_WwDmIOqtExgTgWXtUkSh1vzeTDFWOMzso4qZVUJKFhYhM3zXd6TPI3Dy2IZHzocRnXikm69YF1tQtrcQpaIbjR4B57yM/s1600/Screen+shot+2014-04-24+at+8.46.50+AM.png" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">Along with bringing an arrangement for inside the library, I also had the job of decorating the front display window at the entrance of the building. Since our garden club is now a Home and Garden Club (membership has doubled!) I focused on showing ways to “</span><span style="font-size: large;">bring the outside in</span><span style="font-size: large;">”</span><span style="font-size: large;"> when decorating interiors. I brought one of my favorite prints from home and paired it with fresh lillies in a black vintage teapot. Wallcoverings, paint chips, fabric swatches and garden inspired objects filled the case. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi80BVJpo8Vs4A_f0EsPdPS4S_SlJvyL-mlF2taGehem4qRKraRcX47Pd3t-mg4kZ2t73K8pv2VcyeqK702xP_NIdnEqxGIY3ddDEBJMyQIgsChyot4zGoIR3XPp6V7auAHqLquWx-AZ6GH/s1600/window+display.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi80BVJpo8Vs4A_f0EsPdPS4S_SlJvyL-mlF2taGehem4qRKraRcX47Pd3t-mg4kZ2t73K8pv2VcyeqK702xP_NIdnEqxGIY3ddDEBJMyQIgsChyot4zGoIR3XPp6V7auAHqLquWx-AZ6GH/s1600/window+display.jpg" width="450" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-size: large;">It was kind of a hodge-podge of design ideas, but in person I believe it looked a little more inspiring.
