Christmas is around the corner


The first day after Thanksgiving is a big shopping day for most people. I know a lot of people go to bed Thanksgiving night anticipating the big sales they are going to get on Black Friday. I get excited for Black Friday for another reason. The day after Thanksgiving is when we start decorating our client's offices, restuarants and hotels for the holidays. While everyone was getting up early to conquer their shopping lists, I got up early to start my Christmas decorations. I started making one out of the six wreaths I am designing for a local office. The office has a lot of blue and green panels so I am decorating the wreaths with similar colors. I had a lot of fun this morning with the wreaths.

Happy Thanksgiving


















Every year my family and I celebrate Thanksgiving at my sister's house. While she makes all the food, I always bring the bouquet. This year I created a more traditional centerpiece to decorate the feast my sister made. It was a lovely day. I hope you had a wonderful day with your loved ones as well.

Fall Arrangement



I made this Fall arrangement today with persimmons. I've been using a lot of persimmons in my arrangements lately because they look like little pumpkins. This one is for a Thanksgiving dinner party.

Back to Work


I took a short break from work for an ankle surgery and now I am back getting ready for the Thanksgiving holiday celebrations. I am still walking with crutches but I am doing a lot better. It was a delight today working with all these vibrant fall flowers. I promise to update my blog more now that I am feeling better.

Noel & Eric's Fall Wonderland Wedding

Bridesmaid's Bouquets
Bride's Bouquet
Flowergirl's Arrangements

Despite the rain today, we had a wonderful day designing the flowers for a wedding at the Presidio Golf Course. Because the theme was a fall wonderland, I used a lot of orange and brown colors throughout all the arrangements.
