FLOWER DESIGN CLASS AT TURKISH AMERICAN CULTURAL CENTER

It's autumn and the trees are shedding their colorful leaves. Inspired by this festive season, these nice fall centerpieces were made at the Turkish-American Cultural Center on November 20th by our attendees of the flower design class. Our instructor, Gulden, had taken a floral design class for one year at MATC and shared with us her knowledge on flower design. Everyone made their own centerpiece with a variety of flowers to pick from.  All the flowers and tools for the centerpieces were provided for with a small fee from each person that attended. This way, there was a nice variety of wonderful flowers and picks for everyone to use in their designs. It was so much fun seeing everyone's designs and how they all differed in a unique way. The centerpieces were ready to decorate any table and lighten up any room in a cozy way during this holiday season. Everyone took their fall centerpieces home to share with loved ones.

We were all tired after making the centerpieces and had a great feast of delicious Turkish food.

SPRING IN MADISON

Finally it is spring in Madison. It is almost May but spring comes here soo late. It is still very cool especially in the mornings. But around noon the sun starts shining and warming us up. To me the most amazing thing is to witness all the green and flowers, that die in winter, coming alive again. Even though I witness the beauty of spring every year again and again I am never tired of it. I always look forward spring with the same excitement and enthusiasm. And every spring I get so happy like it is my first time seeing spring. I didn't have time to spend time to take better pictures but I am still adding these pictures to bring the spring to my blog too:)

MY RETURN WITH RED ROSES:)

I haven't been able to add new posts since December because my camera wasn't working. I really don't want to write anything if I am not able to post the picture. A picture is worth a thousand words, right?? I am hoping that I will have more posts in the upcoming days with lots of pictures:) Here is a very simple yet elegant red-rose design in a red vase.
