Faith & Flowers - October 2020

During the Harvest Thanksgiving Service in question, the clergy
and congregation suffered from an unusual and extremely
unpleasant smell. It was eventually traced to the fishing net which
had been draped across the pulpit and threaded with kippers.
Incidentally, the pulpit is insured for £250,000 as it is composed
of panels painted by prominent Pre-Raphaelite artist.
We can only guess exactly what the congregation thought of this
enterprising form of decoration, so our artist tried to imagine
what the produce used, thought about it all.

Let’s go green
In lockdown I had a walk around my small garden and found
some lovely green foliage and flowers.
I used:
4 stems garden ferns
4 hostas leaves
3 fatsia japonica
1 cupressus
1 hellebores viridis
Dish and oasis
To create this design just use
a variety of green forms and
textures.
Why don’t you see what you
have in your garden and get
creating?
Good luck and happy flower
arranging.
