Perfect match!

Sent recently to a customer from Kingston on Thames, via Etsy – a mixture of muted pink shades for wedding table centres.

Half the order was made from vintage sheet music (mainly Mozart pianoforte pieces) and half using pages from the 1985 Mills and Boon classic ‘A Man Worth Knowing’ (subtitled ‘he defeated her evasive tactics at every turn…)

What a perfect order for a musician and a writer, getting married in July.

Musical bouquets (and cake decorations and centrepieces…)

Remember that frantic phone call I blogged about a few weeks ago?

The lady who spoke to me that night made a snowy journey from Pontefract to collect her order yesterday (along with her gorgeous Cavapoo dog!)

Here’s what I came up with – one bridal bouquet, four bridesmaids bouquets, 16 centre piece daisies and 18 cake decoration daisies.

It was lovely to meet the bride, who is now arranging for this little lot to go to the Isle of Man for her wedding a few weeks time.

Congratulations!

 

 

 

Musical paper daisies

Following a frantic phone call from a lovely but distraught lady from Pontefract, who has been let down by her flower supplier for her wedding in March, I have been developing a new product with sheet music this week – daisies.

I used crumpled tissue paper to add some texture.

I had to get the scale right to fit with my roses.

We have been able to come up with the specification of a 5 rose/daisy bouquets and extra decorations for the cake and table settings by means of photos, colour charts and samples sent in the post – and lots of chatting.

I’m now in full manufacturing mode!

I will post pictures of the final bouquets in a couple of weeks…
