Must Do

The hand-tied bouquet is quickly becoming one of the most popular designs for flower lovers around the world. In this class you will learn the most versatile style of hand-tied bouquet for the beginning floral designer, the French Weave.   Join us on October 17 for French Weave Hand-Tied Bouquet and learn the first of three hand-tie styles being taught this season.  Plan to join us for German Armature Hand-tie on November 8 and the Dutch Spiral Hand-tie on December 12th

In Season

Decorative Gourds are in the markets!  Halloween can not be far away.  These “baby” pumpkins are such fun.  They fit on a desk, accent a side table, or add a bit of holiday whimsy to any little spot you can find.  I bought a bushel for my home – yes a bushel!  They were only $15 for the whole thing at the farmers market.  I’m sure I can find a space for each of them.  If a bushel is too many for you, you can find them at the grocery for as little as 3/$1.  Be careful, you’ll have a bushel before you know it!
