I on the other hand was not a fan; although in general, I feel that the world-renowned designer can do no wrong. <span class="inline left"></span>Today is no exception to that notion, though. Oldham has created another arrangement for FTD, the <a href="http://www.ftd.com/todd-oldham-green-salad-prd/t575/" target="_blank">Todd Oldham Green Salad</a> ($79.99), this time using a colander as a vase. I adore this innovative use of a colander, not only for its good looks but because it is something everyone can achieve. Of course, it helps to have a vibrant, kelly green colander to perk things up, but I love it regardless of color. It's also a great housewarming gift, as the colander can be used in the kitchen once the arrangement falls by the wayside.

But today? Not so much. The colorful designer has now slapped his name on a collection of floral arrangements for FTD, including this <a href="http://www.ftd.com/todd-oldham-ppr/todd-oldham-summer-collection/todd-oldham-ice-cream-party/product-oldham/product-oldham-bestsellers/tt01/" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Todd Oldham Ice Cream Party</a> ($39). If I'm feeling simpatico, I suppose I might say a <i>genuine</i> ice cream cone could make a cute arrangement for a kid's birthday, filled with some wildflowers. But a ceramic ice cream dish? Filled with carnations (yuck!) in "vanilla" or "strawberry," and a "red cherry" carnation? Come on, Todd!</p> <!-- no strip poll --><form action="/1865538" method="post" id="epoll_view_voting"> <div><div class="poll"> <div class="vote-form"> <div class="choices"><div class="form-item"> <label>Love It or Hate It?
