The trick to living with flowers is keeping a well stocked cabinet of versatile containers. These don't always need to be Baccarat crystal, they can be as simple as a recycled jelly jar (Bonne Maman jelly and Maille mustard are the best for size and shape- they're yummy too) juice bottles, cups and glasses, or even pitchers like the two Liz used this week for iris and tulips in our kitchen. The key is to keep it simple.
Rather than making an elaborate mixed arrangement Liz put a bundle of tulips in the smaller pitcher and two bundles of iris in the larger pitcher. She then grouped the pitchers together with cake plates loaded with lemons.
The grouping is a cheery hint of spring that greets us every morning.
