In the afternoon session Mrs. .Kistner took up color in flower arrangements. She made many beautiful flower arrangements in color and showed the art of color harmony and which colors are most complimentary to each other.

Of especial interest to the ones attending the lectures was the fact that Mrs. Kistner is author of the book Flower Arrangement For The American Home, which most of them had read. Mrs. Kistner has made seven lectures in London and has had ted in the palace with Queen Elizabeth, “also she has arranged flowers for the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. When Princess Elizabeth iwas marired the flower containers were sent to America from the palace in London, flowers were arranged in them by Mrs. Kistner .and flown baek to London for the Royal wedding. Mrs. Kistner said the most fun she had was arranging the flowers in the entire suite at the Waldorf Astoria for Gen. and Mrs. MacArthur when they arrived in New York.

It was a wonderful day and everyone came away feeling that the time iwas well spent.

The Rappahannock Garden Club for allowing us the privelige of hearing Mrs. Kistner and seeing her works of art in the making.
