Flower Quest Bouquet

This arrangement is appropriate for a christening: the restrained tones and neat shape suit a family celebration. The blue palette echoes tradition but sounds modern and not too literal, so the bouquet will easily fit into another bright holiday as well.

To keep cut flowers in the vase longer, trim the stems at an angle and change the water every couple of days, rinsing the vessel. Keep the bouquet away from direct sunlight, drafts, and ripe fruit.
