Books and magazines

I am getting a lot of inspiration from books and floral magazines and always looking for new ones.I'm getting fusion flowers and fleur creatif and have seen that an italien magazine, Fiori & Foglie is on the market.Is there anyone who knows it?Also I think that a cd called "manipulating leaves" sound as a good thing to have.Anyone knows that?
Last week I recieved " Tasty tables"
I'm afraid that cleaning and washing(it came on my day of) was forgotten for a great deal of time.Is that a nice book or what.The designs and and all around them is just so nice.It's a very good book.I can highly recommend it.I'm also very happy that I found Fusion flowers. It's packed with good ideas.
How do you think about books and magazines? What are your favorits?

Hi

The cd called "manipulating leaves" is available from Thrive Floristry web site as follows : www.thrivefloristry.com

The cd is great fun but I would imagin too time consuming for a busy florist - good for play times though.

If you get stuck drop me a line -- my fave fantasy books are by Preston Bailey - not sure who can afford his designs as they cover an entire event but you can take some ideas and scale them down
