Floristry 1

This is a wonderful Floristry 1 class. Everyone is so kind and helpful and sharing and and and, wonderful. The morning is full of information, the afternoon designing with beautiful wonderful roses of every color. The classroom lights up with the sights and fragrances of the flowers and the smiles of the students. It is no wonder that it is the best job in the world sharing what I love with people that love the same things with a passion...and that is flowers.
We learn about each other. Each are here to express themselves, to create. The energy in the room is amazing.Oh yes and we made bows, we did not try to make bows, we made beautiful bows, often to the surprise of the maker. One student , we will not name names, said she could not make bows, " they have a bow board at the shop." WELL, she can make bows, beautiful ones at that, but I am sworn to secrecy so she will not have to do them at the shop. I predict by the end of the class, she will be making bows volentarrily, because they are fun to do. We'll see, I'll keep you in the loop( pun there!)
Today we will tour the facility, look at books, learn mechanics and designing in foam, free standing designs. It is a full day, I can hardly wait to start.
