These are just a few of the florals I recently designed for my dad's 65th birthday party, hosted by my eldest sister and her husband at their beautiful home in the Oakland hills. I chose colors and shapes that coordinated with the design of the home so that the floral pieces looked relaxed and natural in the space, while still adding a touch of festivity for the party atmosphere.

Using a lot of heavy texture, as I always do, I was able to create visually interesting pieces from the larger statement arrangements all the way down to the little mini arrangements that graced coffee and side tables.
