Learning something new...

Last week I received the books I ordered on Amazon. I got all excited seeing it again and now want to do this more and more I read how to do some of these arrangements. Last night upon talking to one of my friends, she mentioned just keep making arrangements for my mini dinner parties and game nights and start photographing it.

Now, because of this, I need to start hunting floral websites to buy flowers from. I could always go down to the flower district but honestly... it wouldn't always be worth it. So, if you know of any sites, please comment so I can start building an encyclopedia of bulk flower sites.

I figured spending 50$ on a few books to understand it more wouldn't hurt and if I didn't like it at least I could learn something so I can use those techniques at home. I really do love learning random skills. Anyhow, I bought three books from Amazon:

Complete Guide To Flower Arranging


Art of Floral Arranging, The: Learning from the Master Florists at Flower School New York

When I did a search, I didn't realize how many books were out there. There were even books about how to open up your own shop. Let's see where this road leads.
