Where can I find a Christmas wedding cake stand like this one?

Many people are trying to find a large sleigh-and-reindeer cake stand like the one on this page:


http://www.favorideas.com/wedding-themes...





No one seems to be able to track it down.





Obviously it would cost $$$ but I have no idea where to find it. It looks like something you%26#039;d buy from a floral supply shop, though. Any ideas?

Where can I find a Christmas wedding cake stand like this one?
It looks like 2 lenox or 2 high end porcelain deer which you could find at any high end china outlet during Christmas. The sleight is custom made to hold the cake. If you purchased the fancy deer, I am sure the cake maker will be able to find or make the base.


My baker had tons of different bases and things they would custom make for you.... like you said it%26#039;s all $$$$$
Reply:No idea but it is pretty. Print out the pic and take it to a local florist? Usually they have access to things that the general public doesn%26#039;t.
Reply:ok : well there is another idea for %26quot;Christmas WeddingCake %26quot;


as suggested from an professional chefs today


see http://www.wedding.specialitycakes.com good choice


only known !
Reply:I HATE when pictures %26amp; ideas are shown %26amp; then be left to search indefinately.


I%26#039;ve been looking and have found nothing.


Might want to contact the person that wrote the article.
Reply:I guess it would be harder finding christmas sleighs after christmas, but i would try craft stores

I was wandering if there is a study guide to take the floral design test for Louisiana.?

I currently work in a Flower Shop and I have heard you can take the test to be a designer without going to school for it. I am just curious if there is a study guide for the Louisiana area.


Thanks Christy

I have a losol ware vase about 10 in high cream with floral decor and gold on rim and handle?

The vase is in perfect condition apart from the gold being slightly faded the flowers are ..one large yellow one some smaller orange and yellow ones and some purple ones with darkish green leaves black underneath top of pattern it has the losol ware, keeling pottery mark on the bottom. Can anyone tel me how old it might be and if it is worth anything? i have searched the internet endlessly but cannot find anything like it.


Just as a point of interest I brought it in a charity shop about 10 years ago for three pounds

I have a losol ware vase about 10 in high cream with floral decor and gold on rim and handle?
This sounds like a good piece. Losol ware dates from late Victorian times to the 1920%26#039;s. it is very fine porcelain and quite rare. The Keelings were in and out of porcelain from the beginning of the 1800s and at one time had a connection with Wedgewood. The value of your item would be between a hundred and two hundred pounds, perhaps more.
Reply:Have you tried looking at Miller%26#039;s Guide which lists with pictures all types of antiques. BBC have various programmes about antique sales, their web pages may be another source to follow up. ITV has Dickinson%26#039;s Real Deal, they too may offer an answer. Hope this helps. Good luck

Where do I learn how to design floral arrangements?

I%26#039;d like to go to work in a flower shop and I have some natural talent for flower arrangements but I%26#039;d like to learn other thinks like doing funeral arrangements and other stuff. Where can I go to learn how to do flower arrangements like they would do in a flower shop?

Where do I learn how to design floral arrangements?
Have you considered checking with a local Florist for info, or perhaps to work as an unpaid intern with one?
Reply:It just depends on where you live. You might check with community colleges in the area. Ours offers those classes for fun sometimes in the summer. Also, you might check in the newspaper once in awhile or even ask flowershops.
Reply:Some Greenhouses and Floral shops will offer training, also ITT will offer classes thru floral shops.


Natural ability is half the battle, working with live flowers is totally different that silks, plus they will teach you to arrange on a numerical pattern, which I don%26#039;t like...
Reply:Go to your local community college. They have affordable classes on many such topics.

Looking for THE blue floral dress by New Look v.popular this summer, can't find it in any stores, any ideas?

Tried ebay, but too expensive and always get out bid, tried ringing various stores but shop assistants dont have a clue what im on about despite the dress being featured in various newspapers as well as vogue and grazia mag, if anyone has seen it in their local New Look store please let me know!

Reply:hmmmmm, you could try asking the extremely unhelpful people in there, but they probs would say %26quot; i%26#039;ll look for you%26quot; and then go n have a cigarette. You may have to look in other places eg Topshop, Dorothy Perkins, H %26amp; M etc

Do I need a business license to start an in-home business?

I need to know how to start and operate an in-home floral shop.

Do I need a business license to start an in-home business?
It depends on where you are If you are in an unincorporated area likely not, otherwise most likely you do., Contact the SBA (small business administration) in your area and they can walk you through the steps and give you useful tips and advice for free.
Reply:Yes.. I%26#039;m with an in-home business and you definitely need a licence.
Reply:Yes you will need a business license. If you could name your state and county I could be of more help. If your shops has different name than your own then you will need to get a doing business as(dba). You will also need to registar to pay sales tax if your state has sales tax. If you will have employee you will need a federal employer tax id(ein).


You might have trouble opening an in-home floral shop because of zoning laws. I know that my county would prohibit it so your going to have to check up on that.

Business Ethics: Issue concerning loyalty or professionalism?

You are the owner of a local floral shop. You notice that one of your regular customers has been sending flowers with romantic notes attached to several women in the community. You don’t think too much of it until one time the flowers that he buys are to be sent to a good friend of yours. When your friend gets the flowers, she is very excited. She asks you what your opinion is of this fellow. How would you respond?

Business Ethics: Issue concerning loyalty or professionalism?
Be loyal to your friend but say it in a diplomatic way so as not to hurt your customer. Such as, %26quot;He is such an admirer of beautiful women.%26quot; (PLURAL) %26quot;He brightens so many ladies%26#039; days! How thoughtful!%26quot; That way you aren%26#039;t speaking ill of him but you are letting your good friend know he is a player! She%26#039;ll appreciate it and he%26#039;ll never know the difference.

If you could change anything about your wedding, what would it be?

My husband and I would have done what we wanted to do in the first place and would have gone Guam where my husband was stationed and gotten married there just the two of us instead of having a big church wedding back here in the States to %26quot;appease the family%26quot;. It turned out awful, everything went wrong from my hair being horrid, to my make up being a rushed 5 minute bathroom job to my dress almost falling off to the floral shop not delivering the flowers and having no wedding flowers, to the pastor accidentally skipping part of the service and making the whole ceremony a total of 12 minutes from start to finish (best man timed it), to mics not working, to our original wedding site getting snowed out (in May!) three days before the wedding and having to move the wedding to a too small church (%26amp; having to notify all 300 plus guests of the change) to our cake nearly falling over, , and we weren%26#039;t able to go on a honeymoon either.... what would you have changed about your wedding?

If you could change anything about your wedding, what would it be?
Wow! It sounds like the two of you earned a trip to Guam to renew your vows!
Reply:That my glasses wouldn%26#039;t have broken the morning of the wedding! I had no backup, and went through everything in a haze; I can%26#039;t see well far away.


However, about how the wedding went, not a thing. We had a traditional wedding for which we hosted about 200 guests, and with all our hard work and great planning - all went really well!
Reply:The only thing that I would have changed is the flowers on my cake. It wasn%26#039;t exactly as I pictured. It was still very pretty- I just wanted more pink. Other than that the little things that went %26quot;wrong%26quot; just made it more perfect for me. :)
Reply:I might have waited until summer and had the wedding in my parents backyard rather then in the house. I however wasnt disappointed by anything because I didnt expect my day to be perfect in the first place. I expected things to go wrong so that when they did, I wasnt so worked up about it. and my ceremony was only about 12 minutes not skipping anything...we wanted it that way..the shorter the better. and we coldnt afford a honeymoon, but that was no big deal...and my hair dresser almost made me late for the wedding. sorry I cant sympathize with you....but your wedding really doesnt sound that bad....you got to marry the guy you loved right? isnt that the #1 thing?
Reply:The only thing I would change is the venue for the reception, we are using a family member%26#039;s home, when they first offered they were happy about wanting us to use their home, now there are all sorts of rules and restrictions in place that they never mentioned before, like no shoes with heels or black soles on the grass or deck (and definitely not in the house), no music after 9pm, nobody inside the house itself unless it is raining, no kids, no food or drink on the deck area. It%26#039;s lovely of them to offer but they should have set those ground rules when they first offered rather than now, when it is too late to get an alternative venue
Reply:First, I would have taken the marriage idea more seriously.


Second, I would have chosen a better husband.


Third, I would have held out for an actual wedding.
Reply:Wow! I totally understand, my wedding went down hill fast too! Start time of 5:45 turned in to 7:30, because the mother of the groom decided she just wasn%26#039;t going to participate. The limo never showed up the cake was lop-sided and the pictures were a total disaster. Even after that I was the only one that could drive a stick shift car; so here I am in this Cinderella Ball gown driving a ford escort home for the 1st night of the rest of my life.... So be happy that you and you hubby are still doing in great in a few years you%26#039;ll be able to look back and laugh. As for me that was the start of the end of a great relationship. So what I would have changed was the whole thing
Reply:This is easy..........THE GROOM
Reply:Murphy%26#039;s Law. Not to laugh, but OMG! Did you get totally inebriated? You definitely has cause to.


My first wedding..the groom.


The 2nd...my maid of honor. She wouldn%26#039;t help me at all. My son, had to button me up and ride with me to the pier overlooking the Carribean. She was already there...1/2 in the bag with her bowling buddies.


Last, I would have had a different airline fly us home. My dress was smashed and the bottom of the bag was full of sequins and pearls. Then the airline was late causing us to miss our connection in Memphis to circling Minneapolis for 2.5 hrs because of a storm almost causing us to miss the reception 4 hrs. away.
Reply:Oh my goodness, this sounds horrible, and I am about to cry because my wedding was so good, and I thought it would be horrible!





Here is the one thing I wish I would have done differently-


I had a mother of the bride and bridesmaids party in my room the night before the wedding-no rehearsal dinner, we married in a small chapel. The day of the party, I asked other guests to show up later and party, and everyone did except for my aunt and uncle-since they didn´t know anything was planned, they got tickets to a show. To this day, I feel bad that they didn´t get to join us. We had 14 people in our little hotel room, and we had a blast!





I agree-you deserve to renew your vows somewhere wonderful, and make it quick if you can because it sounds so bad when you write about what went wrong with your wedding, and not the good things that happened...cheer up-you´re both alive, hopefully healthy, and overall, YOU ARE MARRIED!
Reply:The first thing would%26#039;ve been my hair. I grew it out so I could do a cute updo, but I should%26#039;ve known that I hate how my face looks with my hair up. I should%26#039;ve just gotten a cute medium haircut with which I am more comfortable with and stuck the tiara and veil on top. Simple is always better.





The second thing would%26#039;ve been not to go so cheap with the videographer. The quality was of something I would%26#039;ve expected from the 1960%26#039;s not in 2001. The video was horrible and so was the audio. At least I have the pictures.
Reply:1. The groom. I married the wrong guy!!! I was in my 20s and not really cognizant of the fact he was the wrong guy for me, something I could easily determine now, 20 years later.





Otherwise it was a wonderful wedding. I%26#039;d change a couple of other things though:





2. The dress. Beautiful dress, but very impractical. I needed the wedding planner to help me use the restroom!





3. Time of year: My wedding almost got cancelled due to a snow storm! Fortunately it stopped snowing and the plows were able to get everything clear.


***


Fortunately, sometimes you get a second chance in life. This time I%26#039;ll have the right groom, a more practical dress, and a time of year where I won%26#039;t be likely to be snowed out. :-)
Reply:I didn%26#039;t like the way my hairdresser did my hair, but i didn%26#039;t say anything. Other than that, I wouldn%26#039;t have changed a thing...we had a bunch of things go wrong, but it made it funny and more memorable.

Did i do the right thing with this woman im intersted in?

there is this woman i work with who technically still has a boy friend but they are having thier problems and she has said that she wants to move on. she has shown a little interst in me. this is a woman im highly interetsedted in. sooo i went to the floral shop and arranged for flowers to be sent to work on thursday during her shift. just to get her attention.


i ordered a dozen pink roses (because pink is the color of admeration) with a card that said %26quot;just to get your attention %26amp; show my intentions. if your intersted call me if not just look at this as a friendly gesture. with great admiration, my name%26quot;


now im wondering if maybe i orderd these inappropriatley. i mean she does still have a boy friend.


what do you guys think? serious answerd only please.

Did i do the right thing with this woman im intersted in?
impressive, she%26#039;ll love that, what really impressed me was the way you said it.
Reply:I really like it. Class act.
Reply:till the boyfriend is out of her life you might.want. to wait if she didnt want him he wouldnt still be with her would he women like attion from men wait till he.s no longer with her then make your move. in my opion?
Reply:If she is having problems and wants to move on, then I say you did the right thing. You probaly just gave her hope knowing that there is a good replacement waiting in the wings.
Reply:Not at all, this I definitely don%26#039;t think was in any way inappropriate. I mean you explained yourself on the card. If she is having trouble already with this current boy friend of hers, chances are they probably would have broken up in the near future without you entering the picture. Plus, this is impressive, that you like a woman and took a step to show your feelings, unlike many men...If anything she%26#039;ll be happy. And even if this doesn%26#039;t go as you planned, you have nothing to lose, right? Thus, don%26#039;t be nervous about this.
Reply:I think a dozen roses will catch her attention..... although wondering now is rather mote. The deed is done. I think it a bit extreme.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think that it was a bad idea because you made a point that if it were to much to take it as friendly gesture and that was good. Now it is up to her to figure out what to do about her boyfriend and what to do about you. You should let her know that you can%26#039;t get to invovled until the coast is clear but she needs to let you know exactly how she feels about you. I know this may sound a little to forward but try this. Take her out somewhere nice but not like dating nice, and ask her how she feels about you as a friend and as a person of interest. Once you get your answer you will know how to approach the situation and how to react then. Also let her know how you%26#039;ve been feeling and that if she wants to be with her boyfriend then thats fine as long as the confrontation of you and him don%26#039;t interfer at your work place.
Reply:I think it is a good gesture, but you probably should have waited until she called it quits with her current boyfriend. You also don%26#039;t want to find yourself being the re-bound guy either - which could be the case if she calls it off with her boyfriend. I guess you will now just have to see how everything turns out.

Have you ever believed in this...?

Here%26#039;s a true story of my friend. My friend has a girlfriend who had died an a car accident few years ago. He misses her very very much and never got another new girlfriend all these years. Until one day,he met this girl working in a floral shop and felt a mutual attraction to her. One day he discovered that his deceased girlfriend had donated her heart to this girl who had inborn heart trouble. My friend felt this girl carried on his girlfriend%26#039;s life....but is he seeing her as the substitute only for his deceased girlfriend or?

Have you ever believed in this...?
I really don%26#039;t think it%26#039;s possible. Because your friends girlfriend is dead. Period! Theres no such thing as coming back from the dead. or anything like that.
Reply:If he didn%26#039;t know that this girl received the heart from his girlfriend that died before he felt the attraction then it is very possible that something special brought them together. If they are happy together let it be.
Reply:If the mutual attraction wa there b4 he found that out, then i say no
Reply:no he is glad to have at least part of his girlfriend back.
Reply:That is uncanny but he should carry on with the thought. That might be the only resolution to his grief. With the help of the physical knowledge that part of her is still being around, he can pick up his own life, be comforted and in one sense,she came back to help him too.





Vive l%26#039;amour.
Reply:He better not be. He liked the girl even before he knew that ex,s heart is in her. It may just be the most romantic coincidence, but that%26#039;s it, it was just a coincidence.
Reply:you%26#039;ve been watching too much television huh?! hehe did you watch the korean drama endless love III- summer scent? well, thats what the story all about! hehe.. well well well i will answer your question. as what the guy did on that movie, hmm.. yah! its like seeing this girl as his late girlfriend and he cant avoid that because he will always have it on his mind that this girls%26#039;s heart is his gfs.its kinda sad but thats the reality! ok?
Reply:wow....sounds like a made for tv movie.....no she is just a very lucky girl whose life was saved by a major tragedy....he needs to get some help to deal with his feelings and sort this all out.....I hope you can convince one of them to get professional help....good luck
Reply:maybe
Reply:He is surely in love with the dead girl. A sustitution is very bad for the new one. I don%26#039;t believe in happiness here.
Reply:sounds like an indian movie. if it%26#039;s true then it might be destiny.

Good Luck
Reply:hahaha RIDICULOUS..fantasy land story, first off, NO one will KNOW WHO there heart came from, (organ donor), and 2nd if they DIED in a car accident, that usually would mean the heart couldnt be saved, organs can only be saved from, brain dead patients, who are on life support, then they remove organs and preserve them, then take them off support, either way, he wouldnt KNOW that its his ex%26#039;s heart,

What was the name of the flower used in American wedding (american pie)?

Michelle%26#039;s mom says it in the scene in the floral shop. It was also used in an episode of six feet under. They referred to it as a cross between a rose and a tulip.

Boutonnieres: Florists vs Grocery Stores?

Hi,





I%26#039;m getting a boutonniere for my prom date and was wondering your opinions on whether I should go to a grocery store (Big Y) or a floral shop to buy it. I know that grocery stores tend to be cheaper, but how does the quality compare? Thanks

Boutonnieres: Florists vs Grocery Stores?
Florist if you want quality





Grocery store if you%26#039;re short on money.





Go to the florist though, I mean it%26#039;s your prom. It%26#039;d suck to have a gorgeous dress and have tacky grocery store flowers lol :)

Any good flower bouquet ideas?

My friend is getting hip surgery and I would really like to send her flowers to the hospital. The thing is, she%26#039;s kind of goth and I%26#039;d love to send her something a little more her style than just a cutesey little bouquet. However, I don%26#039;t want it to be too %26quot;deathly%26quot; in a hospital setting. Does anyone have any ideas for a classy yet gothy bouquet? Please keep ideas to stuff that one would normally find in a floral shop. Thanks in advance!!

Any good flower bouquet ideas?
Oooh...that%26#039;s a tough one.





I%26#039;ve found roses at the grocery store that were such a dark shade of red, they were almost black. They looked great, but that also meant they weren%26#039;t that healthy and they didn%26#039;t last too long.





I%26#039;d suggest purple orchids, but those can by pricey, and they%26#039;re also rather delicate flowers that can die quickly if they aren%26#039;t cared for.





You might be best off with some kind of potted plant arrangement. It wont die as quickly as cut flowers, and you might be able to get a nice arrangement to suit the occasion. See if they still have any Halloween pots in the back.
Reply:A decent florist should be able to create the %26quot;gothy%26quot; arrangement using ordinary flowers. Ikebana style comes to my mind. Take a look at the sites below.

Can you help with with an Objective for my resume?

Im trying to put together something perfessional yet shows my interests. Im applying for a part time job at a floral shop and also a full time job for being a nanny or %26quot;daycare%26quot; How would you go about wording the objective???


Thanks!

Can you help with with an Objective for my resume?
As a parent if i will be looking for someone to take care of my Baby, i definitly will like someone that i know i can trust, you have to obtain people confidence that you are up to the job to take care of people kids or babyes, one think you can do is attach to your resum a background chek on your self by the State Police, this will show that you dont have any criminal records or any chield abuse have been charche agaisnt you in the past, so if someone who is looking fo a nany see this will be impress, and also add some phone numbers and names of people who know you as referals. And of course any expirience with childrens shut be aded too and if you are a mother you can incluid how many childrens of your own you have, this will show that you have more expiriense than someone who wants to be a babt sitter with no childrens of theyr own.
Reply:Look first for the common element. Helping others to gain enjoyment from life. Helping others to grow. Helping others to express themselves. especially helping others to communicate good feelings of love and appreciation. Happiness is a %26quot;derivative%26quot; value. You cannot find happiness by looking for it. You can only find happiness by helping others to find it. If you have grasped that concept (even if only on an intuitive level) you are able to aim in a proper direction to gain a blessed life, in which you bless others.

What is the best way to paint on plexiglass?

I am painting an outdoor sign on plexiglass and was wondering if anyone knew what the best way of painting it would be, It needs to be weather resistent, would acrylic paint work o.k. if it was covered with a polyurethane. And what would give the best look in the end. The sign is for a floral shop. Thank You!

What is the best way to paint on plexiglass?
You%26#039;ve chosen a very difficult project, dear girl.





Usually, plexiglass signs are not painted. It%26#039;s usually done with laminates which are adhered to the plexi.





I%26#039;m guessing that this sign is going to be back lighted...otherwise there%26#039;s no need to use plexi in the first place. If that%26#039;s the case, I would suggest painting your image on the back side of the plexi in reverse so that whatever you use (definitely not water based acrylic) will be protected from the elements.





If it%26#039;s a fairly simple image, I would recommend masking off the image and using a plastic adhering spray paint.... like Krylon Plastic spray. If it%26#039;s a complex image with many colours and details, would say visit a model makers shop. They usually have a good variety of paint that is meant for plastic surfaces.





Ultimately I%26#039;d have to say, don%26#039;t paint plexi. Create your image with good quality heavy vinyl...and if you need to add detail, paint the vinyl with model maker%26#039;s paint.
Reply:Look into getting a silkscreen sign made instead. Kind of like a decal, looks much better, no need to repaint. But, if you want to paint, I%26#039;ve seen some people score (scuff) the surface a bit to help the paint adhere better.

I bought a ficus and it died that weekend. I looked at the soil & there were white worms w legs. What are they

I bought a large ficus from a floral shop and by the end of the weekend it was dead. I looked in the soil and there were all these small white-ish worm looking things but they have legs? What are they and how do I get rid of them? The ficus is toast but I want to know what the insects are before buying another plant.

Who cares? Take it back to the florist and get your money back.
Reply:could be termites or ant larvae.


if the plant died in a couple of days something was terribly wrong


as a former florist i have to agree with answerer that said take it to the flower shop,


they can determine what killed the plant,


it sounds like it was cooked or got tooooooooooo dry


or was fertilized when dry or something else dramatic

I have a friend who is an independent broker and has an office in his home. But, to get initial experience, I would think you would want to work for an existing company for some period of time. They will likely want you in the office. But, you might find one who is willing to work with you.

I just bought an Aloe Plant and Have a question.?

I work at a hotel. And this girl who works here brought one in before I even started working there. And I love the plant. I occasionally break it and put it on my face. It%26#039;s nice, and skinny and beautiful. But Then I wanted to get one for myself, and I went to the nearest floral shop and ordered two of them. But They%26#039;re uglier in my opinion and also they%26#039;re not as Bright Green as the one at work. They are also bigger and have way more juice inside them. But when I broke it open I noticed this disgusting smell. It was absolutely horrible. The one at work has no scent and the one I bought is disgusting. What%26#039;s wrong, what does it need. I just got it today and I%26#039;m clueless.

I just bought an Aloe Plant and Have a question.?
Yes, the problem is probably you have bought a slightly different species to the one your friend has. There are a few hundred different types of aloe and some of them, especially those used as home pot plants are quite similar in appearance, but as you have found out are different when you smell or break them. I doubt it is anything to do with the way you or the shop looked after the plant. Now here comes the hard part, there is not much you can do to change the plant so you have a hard decision to make :-( When you buy another make sure that the shop can definitely reassure you that it is %26#039;aloe vera%26#039;. This is the commonest and probably the species that your friend has. It should look like the picture in the link below.

Do have a real happy marriage!?

This email is a bit lengthy but try and read it until the end. If it does not apply to you perhaps you may know someone who needs it. Have a great day.





For all those Married, Dating or thinking of marriage out there!!!





When I got home that night as my wife served dinner, I held her hand and said, I%26#039;ve got something to tell you. She sat down and ate quietly. Again I observed the hurt in her eyes. Suddenly I didn%26#039;t know how to open my mouth. But I had to let her know what I was thinking. I want a divorce. I raised the topic calmly. She didn%26#039;t seem to be annoyed by my words, instead she asked me softly, why? I avoided her question. This made her angry. She threw away the chopsticks and shouted at me, you are not a man!





That night, we didn%26#039;t talk to each other. She was weeping. I knew she wanted to find out what had happened to our marriage. But I could hardly give her a satisfactory answer, she had lost my heart to Dew. I did%26#039;nt love her anymore..I just pitied her! With a deep sense of guilt, I drafted a divorce agreement which stated that she could own our house, our car, and 30% stake of my company. She glanced at it and then tore it into pieces. The woman who had spent ten years of her life with me had become a stranger. I felt sorry for her wasted time, resources and energy but I could not take back what I had said for I loved Dew so dearly. Finally she cried loudly in front of me, which was what I had expected to see. To me her cry was actually a kind of release. The idea of divorce which had obsessed me for several weeks seemed to be firmer and clearer now.





The next day, I came back home very late and found her writing something at the table. I did%26#039;nt have supper but went straight to sleep and fell asleep very fast because I was tired after an eventful day with Dew. When I woke up, she was still there at the table writing. I just did not care so I turned over and was asleep again. In the morning she presented her divorce conditions: she didn%26#039;t want anything from me, but needed a month%26#039;s notice before the divorce. She requested that in that one month we should both struggle to live a normal life as possible. Her reasons were simple: our son had his exams in a months time and she did%26#039;nt want to disrupt him with our broken marriage.





This was agreeable to me. But she had something more, she asked me to recall how I had carried her into out bridal room on our wedding day. She requested that everyday for the month%26#039;s duration I carry her out of our bedroom to the front door every morning. I thought she was going crazy. Just to make our last days together bearable I accepted her odd request.





I told Dew about my wife s divorce conditions. She laughed loudly and thought it was absurd. No matter what tricks she applies, she has to face the divorce, she said scornfully. My wife and I hadn%26#039;t had any body contact since my divorce intention was explicitly expressed. So when I carried her out on the first day, we both appeared clumsy. Our son clapped behind us, daddy is holding mummy in his arms. His words brought me a sense of pain. From the bedroom to the sitting room, then to the door, I walked over ten meters with her in my arms. She closed her eyes and said softly, don%26#039;t tell our son about the divorce. I nodded, feeling somewhat upset. I put her down outside the door. She went to wait for the bus to work. I drove alone to the office.





On the second day, both of us acted much more easily. She leaned on my chest.. I could smell the fragrance of her blouse. I realized that I hadn%26#039;t looked at this woman carefully for a long time. I realised she was not young any more. There were fine wrinkles on her face, her hair was graying! Our marriage had taken its toll on her. For a minute I wondered what I had done to her. On the fourth day, when I lifted her up, I felt a sense of intimacy returning. This was the woman who had given ten years of her life to me. On the fifth and sixth day, I realized that our sense of intimacy was growing again. I didn%26#039;t tell Dew about this. It became easier to carry her as the month slipped by. Perhaps the everyday workout made me stronger.





She was choosing what to wear one morning. She tried on quite a few dresses but could not find a suitable one. Then she sighed, all my dresses have grown bigger. I suddenly realized that she had grown so thin, that was the reason why I could carry her more easily. Suddenly it hit me, .. she had buried so much pain and bitterness in her heart. Subconsciously I reached out and touched her head. Our son came in at the moment and said, Dad, it%26#039;s time to carry mum out. To him, seeing his father carrying his mother out had become an essential part of his life. My wife gestured to our son to come closer and hugged him tightly. I turned my face away because I was afraid I might change my mind at this last minute. I then held her in my arms, walking from the bedroom, through the sitting room, to the hallway. Her hand surrounded my neck softly and naturally. I held her body tightly, it was just like our wedding day.





But her much lighter weight made me sad. On the last day, when I held her in my arms I could hardly move a step. Our son had gone to school. I held her tightly and said, I had%26#039;nt noticed that our life lacked intimacy.





I drove to office... jumped out of the car swiftly without locking the door. I was afraid any delay would make me change my mind... I walked upstairs. Dew opened the door and I said to her, Sorry, Dew, I do not want the divorce anymore. She looked at me, astonished. Then touched my forehead. Do you have a fever? She said. I moved her hand off my head. Sorry, Dew, I said, I won%26#039;t divorce. My marriage life was boring probably because she and I didn%26#039;t value the details of our lives, not because we didn%26#039;t love each other any more. Now I realise that since I carried her into my home on our wedding day I am supposed to hold her until death do us apart. Dew seemed to suddenly wake up. She gave me a loud slap and then slammed the door and burst into tears. I walked downstairs and drove away.





At the floral shop on the way, I ordered a bouquet of flowers for my wife. The salesgirl asked me what to write on the card. I smiled and wrote, I%26#039;ll carry you out every morning until death do us apart.





The small details of your lives are what really matter in a relationship. It is not the mansion, the car, property, the money in the bank, blah..blah.. blah. These create an environment conducive for happiness but cannot give happiness in themselves. So find time to be your spouse%26#039;s friend and do those little things for each other that build intimacy. Do have a real happy marriage!





If you do share this , you just might save a marriage

Do have a real happy marriage!?
That is one of the sweetest things I have read in a long time. I will pass it on. The first person I will pass it to is my husband. We too, have come to take advantage of each other in our old age and disregard the love we share. Although I do not desire that he carry me across the threshold each day, I do desire that we hold each other in love and admiration as we once did when we were young and so in love.

If only life could be that simple. Unfortunately I hear of too many people in an abusive situation where they dont just not carry their wives, they beat them into submission.....that kind of marriage should not be saved. But I agree, if there was love to begin with, then it can be salvaged and divorce should not embarked upon unless all other avenues have been exhausted.

Am I an evil person?

I have been working in a floral shop for almost one year. I will soon get a promotion to be the manage of our department.





since I work very hard and I can make very nice arrangement.the most important thing is that I%26#039;m very good at dealing with our customers. I always serve the customers patiently and concern of what they need very much. recently I just got a reward of my good service.





but we just got a new girl who is a Asian too like me.she can do the same good service just like me. of course, so far, I can do better arrangement than her. but it%26#039;s not very hard to learn if a person who love this kind of job.





so I felt so uncomfortable. it was my specialty . but now I fell a potential competition. I will lose my credite. I guess somebody will say, it is good for you as you got a so good worker. what are you worring about?





I do am worried. her English is much beeter than me. she%26#039;s 10ys older than me. I know, I%26#039;m so selfish.but it%26#039;s my true feeling.

Am I an evil person?
Why would you be evil? You are just worried about keeping your job, there isn%26#039;t anything fundamentally %26quot;wrong%26quot; with that. If you are worried about her working harder than you though, then you have to be willing to work harder yourself. If you have good employers, they aren%26#039;t going to drop you as long as you pull your weight. She may have a better accent than you, but if you do a better job you aren%26#039;t going to get fired. If you see that she does very good work, then you are going to need to push yourself to do just as well or better. This might be tough, but that%26#039;s the way the working world is.
Reply:Hello, Sun! You are not evil. It is normal to sense competition, especially with an art like floral arrangement! I would try your best to be this person%26#039;s friend. It will make you look confident in yourself and you might be able to learn a thing or two from her. I understand your insecurity, and again, it does not make you evil. Take great pride in your work and others will too. Good luck and stay proud!
Reply:You%26#039;re not an evil person as long as you try and do the job because you love it and not get jealous of whatever happens. You can not stop other people%26#039;s dreams because they might interfere with yours, you don%26#039;t have that control a lot of the times.
Reply:course not evil[:
Reply:To be worried is NOT selfish. You have identified ONE difference or ONE shortcoming in your performance: your English. Stop worrying about everything else.





Find a public school that will help you improve your English, OR hang out with native English speakers, and let them know you want to speak more like a native, so they should not be afraid to offer corrections. Or do both.





Carry around a pocket dictionary so that you can look up words like %26quot;selfish%26quot;. %26quot;Selfish%26quot; is to think TOO much of yourself and not about others.
Reply:envy not evil
Reply:You are not evil but you are normal. You see your new coworker as a threat and you are kind of on the offensive. Don%26#039;t fret no matter what happens you have your experience and you feel good about it. Don%26#039;t let anyone take that away from you.
Reply:Even though you think it%26#039;s competition it%26#039;s an opprotunity to learn from each other, maybe you have lots in common, and maybe as you teach her to do arrangements better, she can help you with english, it could pay off for both of you, but you will always have seniority over her so your secure in your position. Give her a chance it just may work out. Good luck and don%26#039;t worry.

What advice can you give decorating the night before at a wedding reception using fresh flowers?

I am wanting to decorate the night before using fresh red roses in vases. If we do this, how will the flowers look the next day at 530 pm? They wont be too wilted already would they already? The reason why we want to do this, is if we buy our roses fresh from a wholesaler we save sooo much money then buying arrangements at a local floral shop.





Also, can anyone recomend any wholesaler websites for flowers?





Thank you very much on all your help!!!

What advice can you give decorating the night before at a wedding reception using fresh flowers?
Hi and congratulations!





We did the same thing for my son%26#039;s wedding!





One question....when and where is the reception? If it is in the summer...you will want to make sure that the hall is air conditioned WHEN you set up....not the next day. They will be fine if they are in an air-conditioned room all night. OR, on the flip side....is it a winter wedding? Again, you don%26#039;t want the hall TOO HOT for the whole night. Make sure the heat is turned way down. So...if the temperature in the room is OK for the whole night, you should be fine. Ours were lovely!





Here is the wholesaler we used. They were excellent and there are many choices of EACH color! The flowers arrived right on time and there were no problems!


http://www.rosesource.com/





Another one is this wholesaler:


http://www.growersbox.com/





Good luck!





PS--I forgot the mention. Follow their instructions to the letter!!


We had a Saturday wedding, so the roses arrived on Thursday. On Friday, my sister and I did them up. One warning.....it takes a lot of work to unwrap, cut the stems, put them in water filled with rose preservative, etc., so allow lots of time to do this. Again, I have an air conditioned house...so it worked out good...they were in the basement (very cool) overnight. You CAN%26#039;T use standard refrigerators. (They will tell you that). Florist refrigerators are different. But, in the end, IT%26#039;S WORTH IT because you will have saved TONS of money.
Reply:Don%26#039;t do it. You can%26#039;t determine the temp of the room over night and through the day. If you do it, you might walk into dead flowers.





If you are having your reception at a banquet hall/reception hall, then they should do all the decorating the day of as part of your package/contract.
Reply:those flowers should arrive 5 minutes before the guests arrive at the wedding reception. Choose someone in your area and get a discount because you%26#039;re ordering in quantity. Choose someone (some company you can trust...get references) so that they can be trusted to bring the flowers timely.
Reply:We did the same thing. We made sure the roses were still closed on Friday so they would be open by Saturday. Looked great!!
Reply:Set up everything but the flowers. I would be too afraid they%26#039;d wilt. Keep them refrigerated until a few hours before.
Reply:We do not have flower wholesalers here but we do have WalMart and a Copps store which have fresh roses daily for cheap. You can buy them a day ahead, keep them in a cool place so they stay crispy.
Reply:For a 5:30pm wedding, you want to decorate the MORNING of the wedding, not the night before. The flowers will look horrible. I know this because I talked to our florist about it. We had our wedding at 5:30 and she was there bright and early the morning of our wedding to decorate. It was great. Everything looked wonderful. She did a GREAT job and so, I feel like if she....a professional florist.....chose to do them the morning of, then she%26#039;s probably right.
Reply:EDIT: make sure with management you can decorate the night before, most places have rules and other parties happening





I did my flowers for my engagement party and my shower. I used orchids, calla lillies (engagement) and red roses (shower). I didn%26#039;t do my wedding because of wedding nerves and stress. With wedding nervousness and last minute preperations...flowers were not my focus. But it%26#039;s possible and may save you a ton of money.





I%26#039;m not a florist, but from my experience these flowers last forever. The key is to get REALLY fresh flowers, I%26#039;m not sure where your getting your flowers but I told my florist to make sure their fresh. Can the wholesale people help with that? Or try a supermarket, that%26#039;s where i bought the roses and the girl helped me with coordinating.





I did the arrangement the day before both parties, and both were refrigerated the night before. I do think they%26#039;ll be okay because my flowers lasted weeks after the event!!!! We gave them to guests and the said they were really strong and healthy. Out of the 2 arrangements (mini calla lillies and cymbidium orchids lasted longer) 3 weeks after the wedding


Roses (one week) Can you do a test on 1 arrangement?





I%26#039;m trying to remember what helped me





I didn%26#039;t fill the vases very high with water overnight for transporting, they need enough so the stems are touching the water. Fill them up when you get there...





The first arrangement took longer because I wasn%26#039;t sure what to do??? So be prepared for some flowers to be more managed and may break. Ugggh. Once the first is done the rest are easier.





I looked at lots of pics of arrangements online for inspiration, when i did the roses i referred to


http://www.jamaligarden.com/index.asp


Jamali has beautiful vases in natural fibers, ceramic, glass


I used low long reactangular vases. This place is known for florists in the industry in nyc.





I also knew ahead of time what I wanted


http://ovandony.com





Ovando has great architectural arrangements with long Bear Grass leaves (which is cheaper than flowers and you can buy online) and minimal flowers, they charge soooo much for so little. But they don%26#039;t look too hard, look under shop online and weddings for inspiration.





I love the arrangement called perfect balance


look under ovando-shop online link


1st row, 4th column





They have grass, orchids, cut succulent very minimal but beautiful. I wish I did these for my party...

Which of these places would be the most interesting to work?

Floral shop, day care, consignment shop, movie theatre. ..and why?

Which of these places would be the most interesting to work?
consignment shop because you get little insights into other people%26#039;s lives. each item brought in has its own history even if you never know what it is.
Reply:Floral shop. I worked a one for a couple of years and I loved it, hurricane Katrina destroyed it and now I am stuck at a desk in an office. Besides, the customers are nicer and who wouldn%26#039;t want to be around flowers all day.
Reply:A day care, b/c you never can predict what a child is going to do within the next second, nevertheless the next day. It is super fun ,and there is never a dull moment!
Reply:depends if your allergic to any of the work places... if you%26#039;re allergic to all of them... i suggest to you... dont work...
Reply:Daycare of course, kids are the most interesting people out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Reply:floral.. day care will drive you crazy.. i kno.. consignment shop u prob dont make much.. movie theatre is too busy
Reply:consignment shop - it%26#039;ll depend if it%26#039;s furniture or clothes, but it%26#039;s fun to see what people have (check the pockets or drawers, etc.) There%26#039;s a lot of people with bad taste out there....
Reply:I think a movie theatre because I like to people watch, and kids are starting to get on my nerves (no daycare!).
Reply:Either the consignment shop... discounts and first pick.





Or the movie theater... free movies.
Reply:day care.


with kids, day to day, nothing is ever the same. It is constantly changing, and so much fun.
Reply:Floral shop: BORING...you may learn about flowers and plants, though...sounds like a relaxed atmosphere.





Day care: SHOOT ME NOW! I can%26#039;t deal with brats. All you would learn there is to keep your legs together. Kids are a sexually transmitted disease.





Consignment shop: OKAY...you can come across some interesting things and maybe me some interesting people.





Movie theatre: MAYBE...suppose you could see free movies and be around tons of people.

I want to get into a medium sized floral shop. Does anyone know how much a building is going to cost or cost to rent? It is located in a shopping mall area.

I%26#039;m looking to start a business. PLEASE HELP!!!!!?
Try www.SCORE.org and talk to local florists. Keep in mind, running a shop is 100% different than being great with flowers (e.g. taxes, hiring, firing, licensing, zoning, rents, turnover, liability, etc.) I would work for someone first and learn the BUSINESS side first.





Buy NOLO books on STARTING A SMALL BUSINESS - the series is excellent. Also, pick up The E-Myth revisited- this is a must if you are going to start a small business. Also, I highly recommend it be an LLC and not a sole proprietorship.

I need help creating this Pie chart? Please give me a visual of the completed producted.?
You can put your row headings in column A and your numbers in column B. When you do your chart, highlight these cells (probably A1:B4) and use your chart wizard to create the chart (if you%26#039;re using Excel). It will automatically create the pie wedges for you, so you don%26#039;t have to worry about figuring out the percentages or anything like that. (If you%26#039;re using Excel, you can have the chart display the percentages by clicking on the Data Labels tab in Step 3 of the wizard.)





As for the minimum, maximum, and average figures, you can use the statistical tools found under the AutoSum button on your standard toolbar. Or, you can just type in the functions where you need them to go. For finding the maximum, use =MAX(B1:B4), minimum =MIN(B1:B4), and average =AVERAGE(B1:B4). This assumes that you put your data in B1:B4 - make adjustments as necessary.

How can I get more business out of my website? We are a real flower shop in suburban Chicago. Need help.?

We are a real brick and mortar store. Most internet florist are nothing more than order takers. They take 30% off the total and call the order to a brick and mortar shop. This is not fair to customers and real florist. We have enough competion with grocery and big box stores. How can a small floral shop get big response to our website? I would gladly pay to see big results! I would bet that more than 75% of the advertised florist on the web have nothing more than a computor and phone to run there business. 1-800-flower is the worst of all. They take over 32% for the money that is spent on your order.

How can I get more business out of my website? We are a real flower shop in suburban Chicago. Need help.?
First, don%26#039;t knock the competition. They do what they do, you do what you do and your goal is to focus on how you do it better.





Small florist huh? What is your specialty. Do you or your staff hand pick the arrangements that you send? Do you have a picture of your store and/or staff on your website?





How about special occasions the other %26#039;big box%26#039; stores don%26#039;t cover? Forget the same old %26#039;Merry Christmas%26#039; and %26#039;Happy New Year%26#039; sales gimmick. Take a page from Hallmark%26#039;s play book - they have %26#039;Stick To Your Diet%26#039; cards with the theme song from Rocky. How about brides over 20 arrangements, 2nd Wives Club for men that charges a low annual membership, 2nd Husband Club for women (same concept) and yes, women do send flowers to men.





A historical arrangement just for those who relocated to/or from Illinois? What you want to think about is people move around, a lot! A special floral arrangement %26#039;from home%26#039; may make being away easier for some of them. And a %26#039;Welcome Home%26#039; arrangement for new arrivals makes the move less stressful. Family and friends will send them instead of a card.





Also, don%26#039;t start lowering your prices if you decide to do any of these %26#039;special arrangements%26#039;. Go for premium pricing. Why the competition is fighting tooth and claw is that they %26#039;low ball%26#039; hoping to make it up in volume.





You%26#039;re in a highly unique position to make up your own rules. Charge premium prices for a %26#039;price has nothing to do with it, it%26#039;s different%26#039; crowd.





Hope this got your creative brain going;)

How do you report what may be mail fraud?

I received a check for over US$2000 from an overseas %26quot;lottery%26quot; written on a check from a company that doesn%26#039;t seem to have anything to do with the lottery (a group of floral shops in the SE). I want to contact the USPS, and am wondering exactly what I may need to do.

How do you report what may be mail fraud?
Bring it to your bank and tell them you think it is fraud. My bank has a sign up from the FBI that says that is what you should do, and then the bank handles it.





Obviously, do not cash it because then you can get in huge trouble.

Valentine's Day.... Was this something conjured up... (more)...?

...by the greeting card companys, candy companys, jewelry industry, floral shops, and restaurant industry to get more people to buy their products?

Valentine%26#039;s Day.... Was this something conjured up... (more)...?
I%26#039;m not sure if Valentines day was %26quot;conjured up%26quot; by these companies, but as with all holidays they are certainly and vigorously perpetuated by these companies and individuals in their search of the almighty (not) dollar. For specific information regarding the origin of Valentines day visit the web-page below.
Reply:No they took it to the extreme! Its named supposedly after this man, possibly a monk or a priest, called Valentine, a Roman emperor banned marruage because he thought soldiers weren%26#039;t a s good once they were married. So Valentine would marry people in secret!
Reply:History of Valentine%26#039;s Day





Every year in the middle of February, we celebrate a patron, St.


Valentine. The history


behind Valentine%26#039;s Day still remains somewhat mysterious. There are a


few variations on


how it all started. Most point to the events surrounding a celebration


called %26quot;Lupercalia%26quot; in


honor of the God Lupercus.It is said, this celebration had its origins


as a pagan tradition in


the third century. During this time many hungry wolves stalked outside


of Rome attacking


sheep. Legend has it that the God, Lupercus, watched over the


shepherds and their flocks,


keeping them safe from wolves. In February the ancient Romans


celebrated the feast


named Lupercalia in honor of Lupercus.





During Lupercalia, there was a festival of eroticism that honored Juno


Februata, the


Goddess of feverish love. It was a festival of sensual pleasure and a


time to meet and court


a prospective mate. During the festival the names of young maidens


were placed into a


container and drawn at random by adolescent men and would then be


partners for


feasting and sexual game playing for the duration of the festival with


the girl whom he


chose. Sometimes the pairing lasted an entire year, and often, they


would fall in love and


would later marry. This celebration continued even after wolves were


eliminated.





Seen as a problem to Rome as Christianity grew in influence, priests


attempted to


%26quot;christianize%26quot; old secular practices. Pope Gelasius outlawed the pagan


festival. He needed


a %26quot;lovers%26quot; saint to replace the pagan deity Lupercus. Valentine, a


bishop who had been


martyred some two hundred years earlier was chosen. To transform the


ancient pagan


celebration the church changed the name to St. Valentine%26#039;s Day.


Priests substituted the


drawing of Saints names for the names of the girls. On St. Valentine%26#039;s


Day the priest placed


saint%26#039;s names into an urn. Boys and girls then drew a name. In the


following year, the


youth was expected to emulate the life of the saint whose name he had


drawn. By the


fourteenth century, girl%26#039;s names were once again drawn. In the


sixteenth century an


attempt to once again substitute the name of saints for girls failed.


Despite the best


efforts of the Church, St. Valentine%26#039;s Day continued to echo


Lupercalia.





Evidently, there were seven men named Valentine who were honored with


feasts on


February 14th. One of these men named Valentine was a priest under the


reign of


Emperor Claudius II. This was around when the heyday of Roman Empire


had almost come


to an end. Lack of quality administrators led to frequent civil


strife. Learning declined,


taxation increased, and trade slumped to a low, precarious level. The


Emperor was


unsuccessfully trying to recruit men to serve as soldiers for his


wars. The men preferred to


remain at home with their wives, families and sweethearts rather than


to fight in foreign


lands.





Emperor Claudius II became angry and forbade priests to perform new


marriages.


Valentine, feeling that this law was unjust ignored the decree from


the Emperor that


forbade all marriages and betrothals. Valentine and Saint Marius aided


the Christian


martyrs and secretly married couples. After being caught in the act,


he was apprehended


and brought before Rome. Valentine was condemned, thrown in prison and


sentenced to


death.





The emperor, impressed with the young priest%26#039;s dignity and conviction,


attempted to


convert him to the Roman Gods, to save him from certain execution.


Valentine refused to


recognize Roman Gods and even attempted to convert the emperor,


knowing the


consequences fully. On February 24, 270, Valentine was executed.





While imprisoned, Valentine cured a girl of her blindness. This girl


was the jailer%26#039;s


daughter. The girl fell madly in love with Valentine, but could not


save him. On the eve of


his execution, Valentine managed to slip a parting message to the


girl, with the help of


her father, the jailer. The note, of course, was signed %26quot;From your


Valentine.%26quot; After his


execution by being clubbed to death and beheaded, his friends


retrieved his body and it


was buried in a churchyard in Rome.
Reply:No its was cuz of saint vatentine and the fact that he fell in love with the jailors daughter just before his execution (I think)

Reply:Shhhhhhhhh Trade secret...
Reply:not originally, however nowadays, it could very well be.
Reply:No. It is actually a day to commemorate a saint... St Valentine... google it!

Los Angeles Flower District - How to order?

I heard people getting bulks of flower at the LA Flower District for cheap. I was there two weeks ago and bought some flowers to practice making bouquets for my Wedding November 08. I love the results and plan to do all the floral arrangements and bouquet for my wedding.





How do I come about ordering batches of flowers from the LA Flower District? Do I just go in the day before and grab what ever flower I want or should I meet with certain floral shops in the facility to order in advance.





Please provide answers, thanks.

You%26#039;ll have to pay the entrance fee (a whooping $1 on Saturdays or $2 any other day) and they%26#039;ll stamp your hand and give you a sticker to wear to show that you paid.





Then you just wander around a purchase between the 2 warehouse buildings.





Two (okay 3) words of warning though:


-Shop around for prices before handing over money.


-Most places only take cash, so you need to have it on you, or there are ATMs


-Go early! Some places pack up around 9 or 9:30 so it is to your benefit to roll out of bed and put on your lazy day clothes to get down there.
