It’s viewer request time- I’ve had several requests to create a “funeral arrangement”… I’ve even had some that want me to create a “flat fan-shaped funeral arrangement”… but that’s not how I do it… I create “Celebration of Life” arrangements- theming them… or as my dad always said “turning people’s feelings into flowers”… that’s the way I do it… creating something that is meaningful, beautiful and eye-catching… so that our tribute – truly helps mirror the life of our family member or friend.
