What should I put on the message card on the floral arrangement for my grandfathers funeral?
Just have the florists sign with love always, your name. I mean some people write notes like the deceased is going to read them' I will miss you' . doesnt much matter. I am sorry

What are ten common problems when starting a floral business?

I am in the industry. First employees, be responsible about your hiring, don't hire lazy chatter boxes, people don't want to buy flowers for their girlfriend if their wives find out about it. Flower quality, people won't come back for another arrangement if your selling week old flowers. Word of mouth is a killer when someones flowers die the next day. Don't say you have the freshest flowers if you can't stand behind it. Deliver at 11 if that is when your supposed to not 11:05. Last but not least if you set up charge account for people make sure you know who owes you the money. I have been in the industry 12 years. I have been through 3 owners of one shop. Trust me, I have seen mistakes and learned from them the easy way not being the owner. Good Luck :)

Floral design- What do the principles of design govern?

growing seasons, elements, pricing, or techniques?

Floral design- What do the principles of design govern?
the main things you focus on are





color, you want the main piece to stand out





symetry, you're design should be semetrical





focal point, you want people to focus on the main design, not the backround





shapes, keep it simple for floral, we want nice curvey roses not roller coaster looking!

Reply:Try a craft store / fabric store - you might find what you are looking for in the buttons selection. You can make it into an accent by running some thin wire through the back, twisting the strands together to hold it in place, and thread it down into the bouquet.

A really want to be a floral designer..how do I get started?

As you've already read I really want to be a floral designer but I don't know how to get started, how much they make, nothing. Please help, if you have any information about the field please let me know. Thanks

A really want to be a floral designer..how do I get started?
Are you still in school? Then I would suggest, becoming and intern at a floral shop.


If you are looking to start your own business, my suggestion would be to find a local floral shop owner and conduct an informational interview. DO NOT ASK FOR A JOB AT THIS TIME. Right now you are just looking for information.


Ask ??? such as: How long has (the owner) been in the business? At what level did they start? Are there any trade publications/organizations available?, etc.


My only other suggestion would be look up information online regarding the floral business, as well as, business-ownership period. Also, try designing for family and friend functions (baby and bridal showers, graduations, weddings) and see what they may say regarding your "passion".





Best Wishes!
