520 $aOriginally called talking bouquets and word posies, tussie-mussies are sweet smelling and symbolic flower arrangements that Victorians exchanged in lieu of written greetings. Today Geraldine Laufer, a floral poet, revives the art of tussie-mussies and shows how to make them in this full color celebration of craft, lore, and language. Step by step, Tussie-Mussies covers the delightful task of crafting individual flowers and herbs into a message, from how to cut the flowers and greens to finishing the handle and creating the holder. Then Ms. Laufer shares sixty of her favorite tussie-mussies. - Back cover.
