More Flowers!

You wouldn't think there was even a technique for putting a rose in a vase, but apparently there is. We learned how to wrap them in cellophane and finish them off with a bow, followed by putting them in a vase.We learned the proper placement, baby's breath and all. We even had to make the ribbon ourselves. How cool is the pink water? This particular shop is big on dying the water to pull the vase into the arrangement. I was against it at first, but after using it a couple of times, I am warming up to it.

I worked as a florist in high school and college and I'm a closet poptart junkie. Are you sure we aren't related?
