MGC Design Committee Postcard Inspirations

Each month the Mystic Garden Club Design Committee has created a fabulous floral arrangement inspired by an antique postcard. These have been unique as well as beautiful. The arrangement at the October meeting was done by Mary Katherine Porter and was inspired by a Hawaiian Postcard. Her use of red ginger and anthuriums brings to mind the vivid colors of that tropical paradise.

And who can help by see the inspiration of the Southwestern postcard in this goreous explosion of color in a glased potter container done by Barbara Ginsburg.

And a wonderful contrast to the vivid reds is this Asian inspired arrangement in a sleek black vase done by Cheryl Thevenet.

The delicate arrangement of roses was inspired by a postcard of the Newport Tea House.

This very charming arrangement in the model tractor is a wonderful interpretation of this Iowa postcard.
