"The work of Wendy Andrade has regularly featured in the pages of both Fusion Flowers magazine and in our annual Weddings edition where she has created several Collections and there is a good reason for that she has a gift and shes prepared to share it. This is her second book and, if anything, its better because this time we can see the essence of the real Wendy! She has a talent for the use of texture and colour but is also able to create Floral Accessories suitable for anyone and any situation. The book is literally packed with techniques and tips for readers to create gorgeous floral jewellery, bouquets and headdresses and includes lots of step-by-step instructions complete with full botanical and material listings. Wendy also shares ideas for spectacular Asian celebrations that are bound to hit the mark. The style of presentation has changed too as has the photography (which is high quality) and this new style only adds to the lush feeling of the book. We are certain that this very reasonably priced book will become an instant best-seller and we highly recommend it for your library particularly for florists, colleges and students around the world." - Fusion Flowers Magazine, July 2018
