Description
Christmas is a time when devotees of the art of flower arrangement and home decoration can forget the rules about combining the artificial with the real, according to lessons which Fort Worth garden club pupils learned from J. Gregory Conway, international authority on flower art. In this picture is the Victorian vase holds an elaborate arrangement combining hothouse flowers with castor bean pods, bunches of dried bittersweet berries and clusters of metallic grapes from some "five and ten" vineyard. It is one of two interesting arrangements by Conway, which may give Christmas hostesses ideas for highly individual decorations. Published in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram morning edition, December 22, 1940.
