Thank you for your very helpful comments.
I am planning on doing all of the non floristry stuff (paperwork, cutting, cleaning) to start with (atleast 6 months), so I can free up the florist.
I definatley have the passion for floristry, a little more than owning my own business. It just happens that I am an accountant at the minute, which I hope will help with business and finance skills.
I am so excited, need to actually find a place but I can definatley see me moving careers!
Thanks again! Helen x
