...and we have beautiful fall flowers in. Ranging from fall mums to cattails to hypericum berries, we have it all. Be sure to spruce up your home with all these brilliant colors!
We've started re-arranging and sprucing up our front! It's time to tear down all the summer and bring in fall and (psst...dare we say it?) Christmas! Our pretty Christmas silks will be sneaking their way up soon!

Non-Traditional Easel Designs
We're bored. It's rainy.
So we were looking through our files and decided to share some of our more unique easel forms!
Forgive the fact that the floor's showing--it's not that great a picture. But this is one of my favorite sympathy arrangements we've made. Check out the blend of those dahlias & stargazers! I love its unusual form.
It's hard to go wrong when you're working with stargazers, roses & calla lilies (not to mention all-white is always incredibly elegant). Hopefully your eye follows through the pretty flow in the design-- ours does!
This one (left) is actually a Teleflora design, made in our shop, but being fall I thought the sunflowers were appropriate. You can just make out the stems showing through at the bottom of the design, as if it had just been picked. That curly willow is showing off too!
While we enjoy a lot of styles & areas of design, one of our biggest focuses is customized sympathy work. We will work with you on whatever your loved one would want- whether it be traditional, non-traditional, OU (or OSU!), just greenery, only flowers, etc... We'll keep showing some of our favorites to give you an idea. This is where our heart is at.
In other news, we've discovered this neat little project called 3/50 that focuses on ensuring our small businesses for the future. Be on the lookout for more info on that in the coming days!

"All I want to do oo oo oo oo......."
Now that we have that song circling your head... :)
We had a fantastic opportunity this week to design for the band Sugarland! Our own Jill Smith created this arrangement (see right) for the duo, who are the mainstage act tonight at the OKC Zoo Amphitheater. We hope they have a great show!

Princess Day
Last week we had a special visitor to our shop! Our customer Wendy and her niece Hannah came to play with us one day. After planning a princess day with all of Hannah's friends (complete with afternoon tea party) they wanted some beautiful flowers to give that finishing touch for the occasion. Hannah braved the cooler temps of our refrigerators and thoroughly enjoyed picking out her very own flowers.
We checked afterward and Hannah had a wonderful time at her tea party! We're glad we could help her celebrate her very own princess day!

Labor Day
Hey, we're back in full swing! We've been pretty busy today after our nice long weekend, but we were ready & prepared for the onslaught. All of us enjoyed a variety of activities: grandkid watching, tubing at the lake, shopping... whew! Bobby even started teaching his grandson how to ride! :)
So we're taking a survey. What kind of fresh flowers would YOU like to see in the shop? Come by & tell us or let us know in the comments! Oh , and just so you know, we've got a wide variety of plants in this week. Check 'em out!
