Is there a web page where I can actually see the flower arrangements?

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Almost all the wedding pages have a section called "flowers" but usually they just talk about it and do not show any flowers at all. That makes me mad, i want to choose flowers for my bouquet and center pieces not to grow them or get to know them. Any tips for me? Thank you.

Try www.theknot.com they show lots of pictures of bridal bouquets. Congrats and Good Luck!

What are some good gift ideas to send to my husband’s family for Christmas? Are Hickory farm baskets, bad idea?

Thursday, December 31st, 2009

We’ve sent a ham before, and different things from swiss colony, and also sent flower arrangements one year. But should we do something different this year? Are there any good gift ideas online that we can have shipped right to them? thanks!

Maybe magazine subscriptions to something they are interested in.

fake water for flower arrangements?

Saturday, December 26th, 2009

I just put a silk flower arrangement together in a vase and added that fake water stuff. It says it will harden in 24-48 hours but by now shouldn’t it at least be getting thicker? it has been 6 hours. It says to use it in 65-74 degree temps so I am at 70. I know i mixed it right.
Well ok. i know not to touch it. I have the extra in a seperate cup and that is my tester. The real deal I wont even breathe on because I am afraid of ruining it.

give it time, it is a chemical reaction.

Any good ideas on crafts to make and sell?

Saturday, December 26th, 2009

I asked this before, but Im looking to see if anyone else can suggest anything. There are SO many good ideas out there so I know there are more good choices! Thanks so much. I LOVE crafts and can’t wait to make and sell some. (I will be having a craft table at a rummage sale).
Please exclude:
Greeting cards
Crocheted dish rags
Necklaces, bracelets and earrings
Flower Arrangements

go look at craftster.org… they have a ton of idea of what to craft. I don’t know what you’re into….. Fiber arts, ceramics, bookmaking, knitting? Baby stuff, and wedding stuff crafts of some sort. Those always get top dollar… handmade invitations for baby showers or weddings. People get crazy over babies and weddings and don’t care what they spend.

Which flower companies deliver in a vase instead of a box?

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

Want to send my sweetie flowers at work but would like to have them come pre-arranged in a vase rather in the ugly box. Any suggestions?
