The pictures of the arrangement became an instant hit on facebook. And through facebook, the arrangement helped me reconnect with my long-lost high school friend, Rowena. Rowena asked to purchase the arrangement for her new condo, since then, we have been keeping in touch.
This is another reason why I love to arrange flowers, not only is it fun and allows me to use my creativity, it is also a channel through which I can connect with people.
I rarely use silk flowers in my designs but using silk flowers in home decor is a more economically-sound choice. This can be easily transformed into a fresh flower arrangement by subsituting the silk callas for fresh flowers.
So what was supposed to be a small break from writing my paper turned into hours of sketching fun.
