Another work day = flowers

butterfly 3

It was a real busy day today, so i didn't get time to take pictures of all the flowers I did that I liked because there were two weddings. I only took a photo of one piece, the other had eight bouquets and not one photo of those. Bummer. But I still got a few photos here and there.

This first one I really like, thus three photos. Funny, when I put it in the front cooler to sell I didn't realize that I had placed it in the spots where the cooler's fan blows. I walked past a little while later and the butterfly was wigging; had to take a double take -- the fan was making it move. I thought that was funny and I liked it to. So, yep, I left it there to wiggle.

I like the vase on this one and the white flowers. White flowers are my favorite of all flowers.

I sort of like this, but I'm not totally happy with it mainly because the pain this arrangement caused my wrists. By the time I got to this one, my wrist was killing me. Now because I have to use my left hand as my right it is now hurting because it isn't use to it. My coordination went way down, and I even had a hard time just holding the flowers without dropping them by this time of the day.

Just curious -- do people like or dislike me posting flowers? I want to document this part of my life because it is always so fleeting. I make it and it is either for sale or already sold, and then it is gone in one or two days or in 1 hour to be delivered. My family, kids, never get to see what I make, so I mainly post this for them but thought others might like it, too.

  8. I love flowers! I wanted to be an archiologist when I was young until I found out you didn't get to keep the mountains of jewels you dug up. So then I decided on florist,ended up a preschool teacher and mom. But the love of flowers has always been there.
