Red face 6 Red Roses
Well I finally got my shop on saturday! hoorah!!!!

Most of the day spent spying on what the girls did!

One thing I noticed that I just cant leave be is that when an order for 6 red roses comes through (Interflora for £25) and is made up it looks TINY!!!! My girl had used Ruscus as foliage and nothing else. It really was pants.

Can anyopne make any suggestions as to what to do for 6 red roses (at this time of year when they are extortionate) to make the overall bouquet look bigger and better?

Oh, and for £25 only of course!!!

Thank you!

Good luck with your new shop, What a wonderful time to start, Valentines and then straight on to Mother's Day - you're mad
I hope that you do really well.
As for your IF Valentine order, how on earth can you do a 6 rose bouquet for £25? are they long stem roses? I have ordered passion and there is no way I could do a 6 rose htw bouquet with FD for £25 and make any money.
