I had some Baby's Breath left over from a congratulatory rose I received, so I used that as a starting point for this display. By adding magenta Three O'clocks from my yard and a sprig of ripening tangerine-colored berries, I wanted to celebrate my "showy" and "ripening" sides as they relate to the coming autumn season. I liked the contrast that the Baby's Breath provides with its stark white flowers, sort of a yin-yang between the blossoms, leaves, and berry colors and the clipped simplicity of the tiny white blooms. I used my
warabi-te scissors to trim back the leaves and buds to reveal the lines of the branches.
