Kolleen and I went to Bruges especially to attend the Creativ flower show. This was a 5 day event and it gave up plenty of time to absorb all that was going on and attend workshops and generally enjoy Bruges in winter - oh and the snow ... yes it snowed ...
We saw some amazing and beautiful arrangements and installations like the room full of spotlit rose bouquets ...
Love lies bleeding ... Stijn Maddison designed this installation - he's a very talented Belgium florist...
It was early December and of course there were lots of European Christmas arrangements ...
Christmas trees and door wreaths and ...
Kolleen and 'What a wreath'!!
Christmas light installations ...
and table flowers ...
And red rose and rose hips and apples in a bouquet wrapped in paper-thin veined leaves
Red dried chillies an red roses and red baubles create this christmas centrepiece ...
An unusual arrangement of rose,baubles and sparkly bits
White amarylis on flat stones as a table centre piece
A mad hatters tea party
Snow capped cherries in a streetside window box ...
Kolleen and I created some flower arrangements as well - we did these ones in a workshop ...
We were inspired and decorated this wreath over the fireplace in the place we were staying ... it worked out really well..
Here's a close up of our creation ...
And finally ... me!
