New How To Video Basic Corsage Steps

This video is sneakily disguised as a demonstration about how to put silk flowers on a pen.  What the video is really showing might be surprising.  It contains the beginning steps for learning how to make a corsage!

Guest Blogging Off the Flower Path for a Day

Please read my guest post at the Damsel's New Old School Blog.  If you like learning how to do things the old fashioned way, or just sharing ideas about recipes, food preservation, sewing, crafts and other cool stuff, this is the place to be!

I wrote about making doughnuts at my Grandma's house on Halloween.  It's an all day process that provided a nice change of pace from making flower arrangements all day.  There were four of us helpers, it took us from nine in the morning until five in the afternoon.  Grandma used to do it by herself every Halloween, with all of the neighborhood kids underfoot! 





The sale on Christmas decor is still happening at Annie's Main Street Floral.  We have a good selection of velvet covered, red ornaments--enough to decorate a tree, and two full sized artificial Christmas trees (one of them is lightly flocked and pre-lit).  We also have a trio of lodge pole pine trees including a stand, and pine wreaths and silk flowers. Plus some really cute heat-activated whirly-gig ornaments. Remember, everything is between 70-90 % off!
