This week’s 5 Minute video blog- is dedicated to our Tools! The Proper Tools make the difference between working smarter or struggling- it’s really that simple. I sharpen my tools daily- I clean them after every use- I take care of them… because my Tools are the extension of my work- and it makes all the difference in the world. If I was stranded on a desert island- the one tool I would want is my Florist’s Knife- I can do just about anything with it… and there is literally one in just about every drawer, shelf, nook or cranny in my house and office.
So let’s start the year off- with a little discussion about our tools and my favorite tips for keeping them in tip top shape – so we can keep turning people’s feelings into flowers!
