The Festival of Flowers is held in Mobile, Alabama each March.
This year's theme was "Taking Flight to a World of Gardens".
Upon entering the venue, designer tablescapes were the first treat for the eyes. Now I've been attending the flower show for many years and originally the tablescapes were just tables, but this portion of the show has evolved into vignettes that encompass an entire room including the table. Each design included fresh flowers.

“Indian Wedding”

| “Lunch on the Lanai” |
 |
| We loved this makeshift bamboo chandelier! Each bamboo stick has holes drilled into it and then a short string Christmas lights are stuffed down inside. How fun and easy!! |
 |
| “French Travels” |
 |
| “Taste of Africa” |
 |
| "Moon Over Morocco" |

 |
| “Red, White & Blue” |
 |
| “Exiled In Style Moscow Nights” |
 |
| “Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds” |
 |
Here's a close up of "Lucy's" head and although it is cute and I really like her moss collar, I never could figure out how she fit the theme like the other tablescapes.

After viewing the tablescapes, we left that area of the show and passed by this impressive fountain as we entered the landscaped gardens.
Tomorrow....the gardens.
Love ya'll,
Shelli
The lovely flowers embarrass me,
They make me regret I am not a bee –
