This weekends homework:
Draw 3 bouquets & list the items needed to create them

I was like a kid in a candy store, I went for whites & greens in the modern arrangement, a luxurious stroussed iris bouquet & a romantic mixed bunch in pinks with peony & freesia (Basically my dream wedding bouquet)
Sue & Krishna are clever ladies, they bribe me into doing my homework. They took Tina & I to the flower auctions & let us buy our flowers for our 3 bouquets. I felt like a stockbroker…BUY..BUY..BUY! It was a rush man. We got these cool secret bidding buttons under your table & we walked around a giant cool-room to see the stock before the auction, excellent.
It was totally worth getting up at 3am for (it started at 5am but it was ages away & I am the kind of girl that needs an hour before being seen by human eyes)
Stay tuned to see my creations later this week, I suspect they may be pretty special.
Picture time! I look like a tourist wherever I go these days, it’s a little scary actually. People stare & everything.

Other peoples purchases, I didn't buy half as many as that

Some of the flowers I bought....*swoon*


My spider mums


the most wonderful sunflowers I have ever seen...ever

Hello my pretties

I'm not even going to lie, these lotus thingies are sexy, they do things for me

Say it...freeeeesia, it's fun to say huh?

If I keep letting Tina do all the labour people are going to start thinking I am lazy...she has the muscles though. I call this picture "determination"

Our booty (& some random kid who walked past)

Goodbye flower markets. *note to self, start helping Tina & Sue with lifting & pushing things & other labour*
