    I know. Two very opposite words in some respects, but also so very complimentary.

    Today's lessons were bouquets.

    We made three. All very different styles, all very beautiful. Everything used is sustainable and biodegradable too.

    Really hard to capture them perfectly, I absolutely love them though.

    Already given one away. DD required emergency childcare and I have given a bouquet to the person who jumped in and helped. Her dad was due to have her and couldn't do it. He did try to arrange an alternative, but she was absolutely refusing to do his option. Thankfully I suspected he would let me down with what we had agreed and had asked someone else if they could help if what I thought was going to happen, did. She is away with her dad for three nights this week. I am hoping they have an amazing time together and it becomes a more common thing.
