Floral Design Class

IMG_1582My floral class that I am taking at the college started this week.  I didn’t know if we would make anything this week, but we did.  I learned how to make a boutonniere.

Using the floral tape to put together the flowers was kind of easy and sometimes a little bit hard, but twisting the stem into that curl was pretty hard.    The hardest part was making the bow.  My bow never came out right.  I have to practice this week.

I gave the flower to my friend Lisa when I went with her to the Valentine’s dance.  I don’t think she appreciated all of my work.  The good thing was I ran into an old friend, Kristen, and we had a good time talking and dancing together while Lisa was dancing with someone else.
