Magical Begonia Carpet in Brussels
For 3 days in mid August, the heart of Brussels was ornamented by a vast carpet with a colorful pattern made from more than 800,000 begonias
This biannual tradition was initiated in 1971

Much of the ceremony was based on Navajo customs and traditions as Nanibaa’ is a member of the Navajo Nation. Chairs were placed in a circle and in the center was an arrangement made on a large piece of bark.
The woodland theme was carried over for the centerpieces.

Reed College Chapel: the gorgeous woodwork in this very intimate chapel lends itself perfectly for woodland arrangements.
