Do what inspires you

 Today I want to take you back many, many, MANY moons ago to the place where I first got the light bulb moment, the desire and inspiration to become a florist. Before this very day I had not even thought there was a job or career possible to fulfill all my love of design, passion for creativity and skills learnt in visual merchandising, styling, photography, art and media.

My Passion for theming events at friends and families parties lead me to being asked by a dear friend's mother, Thea's 6oth birthday and the house was turning 100, combining and celebrating a 160th. Thea asked me to fill the house with displays of flowers. Me not ever arranging flowers into a vase, took the project on! Another challenge, yes I love a challenge!

Now looking back at these images I cringe in parts but I also look at them proudly and in awe that this was my first ever attempt in theming, flower arranging and it was THIS event that has taken me on the path to where I am today. I guess the moral of the story-if there has to be a moral- is to take on challenges that come your way. Do what inspires you in life, who knows where one event or moment can take you!

Enjoy my first ever attempts of floral displays! xx
