How to make your collection last

"
​Book" arranging made simple

​Here's a little metaphor to help you explain to others why you weed your collection: (or watch the video and think "book" every time she says "flower"!)

"If my arrangement is starting to look a little old and tired, I pull out the faded flowers, re-arrange the hardier blooms in the extra space, and then add one or two selected fresh flowers for a ​whole new look."

...meaning...

"If my collection is starting to look a little old and tired, I pull out the outdated resources, re-arrange the titles that still have appeal and relevance in the new space available, and add a dozen or two selected brand new titles for a whole new look."
