Floral Arranging 101

...or something like that.

A couple weeks ago, Sister asked if I wanted to take a flower arranging class w/ her (there was a Groupon involved, of course). I was super excited as soon as she told me about it. I love flowers...and everything there is to do w/ them! We found out what the choices for the classes were, though...and soon realized they all seemed a bit strange...silk flower door hanger, herb garden, fairy garden?? Weird-o-la. We finally decided on the herb garden...it seemed the most normal.

Once we got to the class (10 minutes late...classy)...our doubts went away. This was a way-cool set up. The lady doing the class owns the business...and she just genuinely loves what she does. We broke into 2 groups (one group started planting and the other made tags for each of the herbs).

*We started w/ tags first...there were tons of markers and papers to choose from.

*We got to use these cute little stakes to put our herb name tags on. I had to have the heart (the only one there)...they're my fav!

*I could have looked around the shop all nite. There were so many pretty flowers and trinkets! I could only imagine the fun things made there.

*Seesters! Wish I had actually taken a pic of my herbs...

but, alas...I did not. So...you'll just have to enjoy this one of us

after we planted. ;)

Thanks to Sister for a great idea! She knows me too well. We've purchased another deal to do a class very soon.
