Yesterday it almost felt like it.  I can’t wait for the Daffodils and Viburnum until then I will be gearing up for Valentines Day!

Nostalgia

I was searching the world wide web for keywords and phrases that would bring up my website and I came across this picture of Manti’s old main street.  Manti is a really cute town now, that’s one of the reasons we were drawn back here but I wish it still looked this old and adorable.

I couldn’t have said it better myself……

Last minute bridal bouquet

January 19th, 2010

Twice in the last month I have had last minute bouquets.  By last minute I mean I get a call at 10 for a bouquet at 11.  I have been very surprised but pleased with what I could scrounge up last minute….IMGP3451

Sympathy Flowers

Funeral Flowers, Standing Spray

As much as I love weddings, I have to admit Sympathy Flowers have climbed pretty high on my list of favorite things to design.  There is something very special about designing for funerals.  My goal for the near future is to have a pretty good selection of my original designs for those planning a memorial service for their loved one because to be honest, I don’t think there is anything in a book anywhere that isn’t from the 80’s!

Ranunculus are so sweet and romantic with layers of tissue like petals.  They come in both brights & pastels.  They add great variety to bouquets and are super cute in boutonnieres and corsages.
