About Me

I am a very close friend of Donn Flipse, Jen Stabile and other associates of Field of Flowers, based in Davie Florida. I share with them a love of flowers and plants, the business of selling them, and a desire to learn more about them. Via my blog I hope to find other people of similar interests and provide them with interesting and entertaining information.

"The Frugal Florist and The Budget Bride" and Field of Flowers - It's the perfect match!


The economy has hit everyone – even brides to be! But John Klingel, the director of the South Florida Center for Floral Studies in West Palm Beach, is making those future wives a little more relaxed. He recently visited Field of Flowers to talk about how to make a wedding beautiful on a budget – and still have gorgeous flowers. If you are familiar with John, you know he is the author of The Frugal Florist: Do-it-Yourself Flowers on a Budget. He provided excellent information and entertaining demonstrations on ways to keep wedding flowers beautiful and on a budget.


As Donn Flipse says -- "John’s creative touch with flowers is contagious!" He encouraged listeners to consider interesting floral combinations, and showed examples of how a beautiful bow or colored stones can add flair to flower arrangements. Find out more at John’s site: http://www.frugalflorist.biz/. Do you know how cool it is to make your own arrangements for your wedding?

I missed the visit :( but I have seen the Frugal Florist in action at the Coral Springs store in the past. It was indeed a wonderful presentation as I'm, sure this latest round was.
