Designer's Choice

When someone orders a Designer's Choice at our shop, it means just like it sounds...it's the choice of the designer of what flowers to use, what greens, a color scheme, a texture, etc.  However, since I especially hound over the 'girls' as to what they're work should look like, producing the 'right' designer choice can be challenging at times.  I trust my girls to do something tasteful, but with reference to the principles set forth in our shop.  There are certain no-nos that we really try to abide by.  Everyone knows these by heart, and just to keep everyone on their toes, I introduce new qualities e& practices very once in a while.  We need to stay on top of what our work portrays, as it's imperative to operate our shop with a pioneering spirit. 

151_5109 Here's a recent example of a designer's choice.  We'll use this image to update our website.  This particular designer as used mainly spring blossoms, which definitely works for this season, but come spring and into summer, we'll need to update with a newer seasonal version. 

This is beautiful, isn't it? It is a good example of what our principles are..somewhat pave'd in style, and the use of colors are harmonious, and not too broad of a palette. 

I think it's a good example of what an everyday arrangement from our shop would look like.  I'm happy.  And that says a lot sometimes!
