We have been doing lots of limited designs lately some with cageing and some with decorative wire sometimes adding a butterfly or other suitable decor so far they have sold well think now we will have to change our design and intoduce another style to keep the customers interested

we also try new things when its slow, like giving the shop a good cleaning, ha ha. The truth is that we sometimes do the arrangements that are more ornate, but u have to have the right customer for them, cuz not everyone understands that the labour that goes into it has to be charged too, but in order to enjoy floristry u sometimes have to do the things that make u excited
