TABLE DECORATIONS 17 



A FEW TABLES WHICH I HAVE POUND 

 SUCCESSFUL 



Pale yellow Chrysanthemums with pale yellow and bronze 

 autumn leaves, and one of the smaller flowered varieties of 

 pale mauve Michaelmas Daisies. 



Anemone fidgens, fully opened flowers, with good spikes 

 of Lily of the Valley standing well above them and arranged 

 in old wine-coolers, in a fairly neat way, give a brilliant 

 effect on a small table. 



Mixed colours of Azalea mollis with good red foliage of 

 Mahonia Darwinii and long trails of brown Ivy, with the 

 addition of a few light sprays of Mimosa to form the base. 



Low bowls of dark Wallflowers, massed rather thickly, 

 with Clara Butt Tulips standing well out make a striking 

 contrast and is a deliciously sweet table. 



In the winter, Britannia, or some other good scarlet 

 Carnations lightly arranged with a few Lilies of the Valley, 

 and some long sprays of Asparagus plumosus create a 

 delightfully warm effect. If the table is a very large one, 

 the addition of a few Poinsettias and sprays of white Lilac 

 will give strength to it. 



Daffodils, with a profusion of their own leaves, and some 

 long well-flowered sprays of Jasminum nudiflorum with 

 brown Ivy sprays on the table. 



Very light sprays of Mimosa dealbata with single yellow 

 Tulips and a few well- opened Tulip Couronne tfOr at the base,
