Fresh flowers fade, but handcrafted blooms brighten a space for decades. In The Flower Workshop, British designer Vera Jeffery shows you how to shape silk, crepe, paper, and even wax into lifelike roses, lilies, and holiday accents. Step‑by‑step photos, full‑color spreads, and 200+ line drawings walk you from basic petals to show‑stopping arrangements—no florist bill required.
