Book 3 — Wire-Mesh Support for Flower Centerpiece
Reading edition
Pansies, violets, or other short-stemmed flowers cannot easily be shown to advantage in a table centerpiece unless properly supported. By placing a frame of wire mesh in the dish, as shown in the sketch, the stems of the flowers may be set in the openings, giving a neat and effective display.—Victor Carpenter, South Bend, Ind.
