Mother Nature & I



It can have you on the edge of you seat sometimes ........ organizing flowers for big corporate events! In the past month we have been contracted to do some amazing projects!
Coming up with a concept - selling it to event coordinator's, ordering the flowers, vases etc, and then creating the picture that you have in your head! if everything you have organised goes to plan it's great but when dealing with flowers - you basically have to rely one one lady whom from time to time can have little mood swings..... Mother Nature!!!! most the time she's really good to me and we are the best of friends.... that is until last Wednesday.......
There was a little glitch a spider had decided to hitch a ride with these stunners and fancied a trip to NZ (who knows why in this cold weather) -and this resulted in the imported Purple Orchids held up at MAF for a few day's I am sure is just another little way way that Mother Nature was letting me know who's boss! They arrived - They were Gorgeous! and well M.N and I we're OK - still friends ....till next time she has a little tantrum!

Ball Season


Today for us is the beginning of the Ball Season. We are having so much fun with the different colour combinations, wristlets, hair flowers and buttonholes, matching them to fabrics or themes, we love the chance to be creative with these and have so many ideas, feathers, beads, sparkle wire, big statement corsages or dainty little clusters!
We want to wish all attending the Picton School Ball a wonderful & fun night on Saturday and a sneaky reminder to all those attending the Marlborough Colleges Ball or any other Marlborough Ball to pop in and order flowers to enhance your look for your big night!
I Remember my school ball like it was yesterday & we had so much fun, it's just one of those times in life that you never forget - so make it special!
