The Meaning of Flowers


For my birthday I received a lovely little book from my sister. Inside are charming collage illustrations made of plant material, ephemera, and small, interesting objects. While I had my buttons out for sorting I made a temporary embellishment for the bookcover in the spirit of the author's artwork.

Did you know that - "The dahlia suggests the instability of perfect beauty"?

If you have earwigs or Japanese beetles in your garden you will not have a difficult time believing that.
