Flower Club

I've started the flower club, which currently happens every fortnight, with orchids. They are long lasters which is what I was after since the flowers are only ordered every two weeks. Each client receives the same arrangement.

Floral Foam Wreath

A few Arrangements

The these arrangements would retail around $65-$70 each.

Ivory & Purple Wedding

My Bride requested purple and Ivory Roses so I used freesias, Lissies and privet berry, later found out the bride had a massive tree of privet berry in her yard so it was a nice touch. Really wanted to use Berzellia but it wasn't available... The completed flowers below (Hair flowers, buttonholes and bouquets):

Flowers packed ready to go:

Weekend without flowers

I am feeling very lost this long easter weekend... no floristry school, no flowers in the house! I have resorted to looking at local florists websites and blogs. Favourits are Buds and Bowers in Surry Hills... had a physical reaction to a wreath they had on their website - just amazing! Also like Garlands Florist (whom are also in Surry Hills).

Also sitting here making buttonholes using flowers from the garden and working on some bouquet ribbon wrapping ideas.

I think I have an itch I need to scratch... since the flowers from the garden aren't doing it for me, I might have to make a trip into Harris Farms tomorrow and grab some flowers to play with... Can't wait til Tuesday when i'm back at the flower markets to pick up my order for my Purple & Ivory wedding next Friday.

What can I say, I will not deny it if someone said I had a problem.
