In a free-form twist on the cascading bouquet, wispy spirea branches form a base for anemones, sweet peas, scabiosas, and hyacinth blooms. Though the finished product may seem easy-breezy, each bloom is placed ever-so thoughtfully.

Shape-Shifters
Several rectangular vessels lined up end to end give the illusion of one long window box with fluttery Japanese ranunculus, variegated sweet peas, and scabiosas springing from its center. Spireas and camellias add fullness but leave room for cross-table conversations.

Delicate Displays
Mantelpiece wreaths are crowd-pleasers, but for a new take on the traditional circle, consider this sheaf of spireas, camellias, roses, and carnations bound with silk ribbon. A few extra blossoms are affixed with hot glue to the branches to fill blank spots, and the whole arrangement is anchored to the wall with strips of white gaffer's tape.
