Things I do
Painting is my favorite thing I do...it is where I can express what is deepest within..there is nothing like getting some thought on paper in full color and texture....but I also do another fun thing.......
Wedding flowers.... now I only do them for special people, family and dear friends... cause it is a very specialized job...that takes time and much thought.. Many hours discussing what flowers, how many, where they will go, what colors... etc... .
Sometimes I do little watercolors just to see the colors..and how it might look... that is always fun, then I can keep a record.. I don't know how many I have done...but I started doing them when my daughters got married. I did their flowers. Now that was really intense, because I wascutting flowers and tying bows, just before I had to be ushered in and sit down....but I love it, so I do it.... each wedding is different and so the flowers are all different, not one is alike... always to the brides liking...
This next wedding is in 3 weeks ... I have already ordered the flowers...and now collecting buckets, will be purchasing ribbon and supplies and getting the room set up . It has to be a cold room, somewhere air conditioned... sometimes we use the frig.to store the bouquets... ..which means all food goes into coolers...
It gets to be a real intense scene. flowers everywhere and all hands on deck to help..I will try to remember to take pictures of the process to show.you :) .... This wedding will be in shades of blues... looking forward to it....
