To Do: Bouquets to Art

One of my all time favorite San Francisco events starts today! Bouquets to Art at the de Young challenges floral designers from around the city to pair arrangements with works from the museum collection. The flowers stay up until Saturday.

You can see photos from the 2008 show here and a sneak peek at the set up for 2009 here. Last year’s floral trends included metal wire, succulents, weaving and folding.
