Our local church held a flower festival over the bank holiday weekend. The main attraction was a display of flower arrangements by a local flower arranging club with the theme being ‘Nursery Rhymes’. Here are a few of my favourites:<\/p>\n

This one is ‘Itsy bitsy spider’ (I always knew it as ‘Incy wincy spider’!) Like most of the displays there is a lot of thought,\u00a0 work and detail gone into the creation of these works. In this case the drainpipe is a genuine cast iron drainpipe:<\/p>\n

The body looks like the wooden handle of a bradawl. The legs appear to be made from shaped metals strips from some piece of equipment (what, I haven’t any idea).<\/p>\n

‘Lavender’s blue dilly dilly’:<\/p>\n

‘Mary, Mary quite contrary’:<\/p>\n

‘Polly put the kettle on’:<\/p>\n

The stove in the background was hand painted!<\/p>\n

And ‘Bobby Shafto’s gone to sea’:<\/p>\n

There were 30 arrangements in all. A selection of them will be used for a fund-raising calendar for the church.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
