At a funeral last month, I saw one arrangement that made me wanna take it apart and start over...lol...it was made of excellent fresh flowers, but (in my unbiased opinion), it wasn't balanced, and too artsy-fartsy to really convey sympathy. The deceased was a farmer, for heaven's sake! The arrangement said more about the designer than about the reason for sending it.
Have YOU ever been 'challenged' by a flower arrangement? Something so odd that you felt uncomfortable, even if you couldn't say why?
Birdie pontificates:
It seems to me that "everyday" flowers (you know....for get well, funerals, birthdays, anniversaries, etc.) should be easy on the eye and comforting.
There should be balance, serenity and harmony. NO challenges.
Birdie blasphemes:
For most occasions, flowers should be like candles on a cake....in the
background. A mere accoutrement to the festivities, ok?
An "Oooo, and Ahhh" thing, but still sweet and comfortable.
Birdie will probably be shot at dawn by the flower police.
who died?
