I had a fantastic couple days working with flowers this last week. I:
- took the initiative at work to put out a bark dust fire at the back of our shop while my supervisor was busy with customers.
- got to help put together some rose bunches at work.
- answered the phone for the first time at the shop (only to put them on hold, LOL, but I learned how to answer calls and put them on hold!).
- asked my supervisor about the flowers needed for a beautiful arrangement I have seen her and my manager both do, and will get to make it as soon as I buy the flowers.
- made my very first "modern" arrangement in class.
- made two beautiful arrangements last week in class--one with flowers in class and one with leftovers.
- was told by my teacher that I have improved a lot since the last time I took her class, almost a year ago.
I realized today that the true test of my ability as a florist will be when somebody says to me, "Put these flowers into an arrangement for me" and watches me as I do so. I have a feeling that'll come up soon.
I am excited about every little new thing I learn or achieve pertaining to floristry. I am so eager to learn more!
