candy bouquet for local kids

The Football Team and Cheerleaders prepped for their last home game before play offs.. or as it’s called around here “Senior Night.” The town really supports the kids which is totally awesome. TIGER PRIDE for sure. This candy bar bouquet and Arrangement was made for two of the Sr kids that one played on the football team and the other was his girlfriend and she was a cheerleader. I have brought into my shop suckers from Katie’s Candy and it has been fun incorporating them into the candy bouquets and flowers. The kids are digging them also as it adds that little special pride touch!

Never Forgotten

loving arrangement from a friend

A friend of ours passed away unexpectedly. What a shock it was to all of us. Gary had worked along with my Gary and many others for years. It was a great lost to all who knew him. The floral arrangement shown here was from a co-worker of Gary’s when he worked for a local fuel delivery business. Gary’s humor and smile will be missed but never forgotten.

foam hawaiian wedding theme flowers

Well Clam season opened this weekend but not for this gal.. With homecoming going on and some other events that I needed at the shop…while .. Gary played and I worked!

Business was rather good this year for homecoming. I believe that people are beginning to know that I am here for good …one way or another….I worked mass hours on Friday and Saturday and actually found myself working Sunday and today also which is normally my day off…but I have another funeral tomorrow to be completed and also a wedding that I have been working hard on this coming up weekend, along with homecoming in Toledo. This is the wedding with the Hawaiian Flowers (Silks/foam) from Hawaii. It has been alot of fun doing it and it is for a special friend to boot… Here are some pictures of the flowers but I am not totally done.

I will be taking pictures of all this when it is completed before Shawna picks them up. I will be helping them get arch all decorated for this wedding. It is going to be awesome when the time comes.. Most definitely a Hawaiian Theme…Can’t wait to see it finally together…

Well everyone have an awesome Fall.

Halloween is just about around the corner, so until next time CHOW!

Beautiful Hawaiian wedding flowers

hawaiian-sample

I am going to do a wedding this October and the young gal wants to have it in a Hawaiian theme. So I made contact with a Hawaiian entertainer/dancer that is famous on the islands not only for her dancing but for the beautiful hair pieces she wears. She uses foam pulmeria and hibiscus. They are totally awesome looking. Pretty real looking if I do say so… So I order some to try to put a few things together just to see..

hawaiian-sample2

The one is a bunch made up to look like a single stem flower but she has chosen to do the round design bouquet. Now keep in mind this is a sample not what it is going to look like as there is so much more to put in with it.. but the shape is what she was concentrating on..

Flowers and vows for a friend’s wedding

Our friend Stacey getting married

Hello everyone.. I thought I should touch bases with you all.. It has been a very busy 2 weeks and the next few months will even be busier.

There is no greater honor than to be asked to do flowers for a special family that has been a part of our life for a long time.

bridesmaid

On July 4th, Stacey’s wedding day arrived and what an awesome day it was. The sun was out and everything fell into place as we hoped. The ceremony was totally awesome. In fact at one time, it brought tears to my eyes. (okay I have a soft heart!) The bride was beautiful the flowers accented all their dresses perfectly. Now again I see why I do what I do when it comes to flowers as it is always so rewarding…for me. Have a great Weekend..
