Hello, Goodbye.



So as most of my blog followers know that this blog has seen many careers and various paths I've taken. This blog is about three years old. When I first started it I was a massage therapist in San Francisco pregnant launching an online vintage shop. It has evolved to Flower Shop owner and wedding photographer. So it's safe to say we have been through some changes. To be very honest the reason I started blogging was because I lost my "big" job in the city due to the economy. And I wanted something that I could depend on myself for, a career I know I couldn't loose because something I know I could trust myself with. And of course be passionate about. And for the most part I think I have found it. But I'm still in my twenties (late twenties...but still) and I think I'm still finding what I want to do. It's been decided I'm moving on from the flower shop, and during this transition I'm taking a bit of a break. I'll  be traveling this year with my kids and with myself and doing some self discovery. I want to find something that I'm so passionate about I stop wondering. That's when I know I have found my path. I'll be back in a few weeks with my adventure tails of self discovery. Any stories you care to share on your own self discovery will be appreciated.

A week in photos...








Last week there was no week in photos due to the high volume of orders at the flower shop. But man this week was a blur. Most my time was at the shop, making orders, processing orders, and directing delivery drivers and making maps. So enjoy some flower shop photos this week...and happy weekend!!!

1. Ribbon rack.

2. Arranging. 

3. Button flowers.

4. Fresh mini roses.

5. Overstocked in flowers this week.

6. The flower shop must look like a magical flower jungle to little Luna.

Mother's Day Week




Our second biggest flower holiday is this SUNDAY! But unlike Valentines Day (where it happens all in one day) Mother's Day seems to be a week long (which is sort of nice). But we have been popping out some great stuff this week, this arrangement in particular made a Mama cry when we delivered it (aw). So don't forget your Mama this Sunday! And you can order on our site, and we wire out or floral recipe nationally! So even if your not local we can provide your mama with our Flower Arrangements. Happy Mother's Day!

Karma




Sorry for the blog silence lately, but I'm dealing with not one, not two, but three difficulties in my life. I really can't complain to much because personally my life is great all three of these difficulties are with business. One deals with another local photographer who ran off with my money, another deals with the negative feedback here who's trying to get my money, and another theft case at the flower shop. I don't know what it is lately but apparently my wallet is up for grabs and everyone wants a piece. So just this lovely poster for now, I'll be back tomorrow with pretty flowers.

Playing



Yesterday I was playing with the timer, light, and little Luna in the alley next to our house. And I think the outcome was pretty good. I've been wanting mama and baby pictures for a while, so what better time then now.
