A FLORAL exhibition inspired by the life and work of designer Charles Rennie Mackintosh opens today at Glasgow's House For an Art Lover.

West End florist Nick Priestly, of Mood Flowers, used the Bellahouston Park house as the starting point for his exhibition, 'The Flowers of Charles Rennie Mackintosh'.

Mood Flowers is the venue's in-house florist and regularly supplies bouquets for weddings and other events.

Nick said: "We have tied in with Mackintosh themes, such as in the dining room where there is a rose theme."

The event takes the form of a series of guided tours and classes, with entry costing £6.50.

It runs today and tomorrow from 10am to 4pm. To book, call 0141 353 4770.
