Fun and Faith Building

Here we go so - di -o, here we go so - di - o, here we go so - di - o, all night long , to the front, to the back, to the see saw side ...
 That was a song we sang in school, it just came to mind as I sat to write this posting and I wanted to stir your memory to see if you sang it too !

It has been a crazy week but fun and faith testing all the same. I actually had jury duty this week (Mel) - totally interesting   It was really cool to sit in a room full of people who did not know each other, who were forced to take time away from work (many unpaid) or to roll out of bed before 8:00 am BUT still, with smiles on their faces happily chat away and make new friends as we all did our civic duty.  Hamiltonian's are wonderful loving people.

                                                                                            IN THE STUDIO
We have been working away building petal stock for our creamy fabric blooms. We found a FABULOUS vintage sheer fabric with a light stripe pattern to it. I can't wait until we put it together with some vintage lace!

For the rest of the week we will be working on some wedding orders !
Pam has ordered a beautiful bouquet created just for her. It will have a slight bit of colour with organza leaves in grape, olive and pumpkin.
We are also working on all of Jolene's wedding party flowers. She has a lovely palette of sea foam green, pale peach and pale pink along with our vintage creams and tea stained elements.

Sarah's flowers are coming along very well - vintage pale pink fabric blooms custom made to fit in her fabulous honeycomb vase from the awsome "West Elm"  West Elm




ON THE HOME FRONT
I will be spending time with Dad tomorrow afternoon. I have the honour of picking him up from his Day program - The great Saff at St. Joe's Villa have put together an Alzheimer's group where Dad can hang with friends and keep busy - playing cards, games and even shoot some pool (which I heard Dad is pretty good at !! )

Aim is getting ready or the Fathers Day soiree - cleaning house and cooking along with her regular tweeting and treasuring!

Behave!

Mel
