What's on your door?

Or maybe I should be asking... what do you want on your door??  I love our swags that we make at Main Street Florist and we hope you do to... but are they getting a bit stale??  Gerber, Gerber, Glitter, bow.....   Gerber, Big Gerber, greens, and bow...    We need to shake things up a bit!!

So what do you want for your door, or hallway, or living room??? I pulled a few pics of some inspiring door decor but we really want to hear from you! Post some links of what you like or maybe a different shape or scale you're looking for.

Exhibit A: above is our typical swag.  Fun, bright, airy... and we LOVE them.  We will also love them and always make them... but we need some variety people!

New ideas: Monograms are always fun... especially with the bright colors and patterns. 

New Ideas: This one is a nice shape... and is apparently sold :)

New Ideas: Although this design doesn't "wow" me.. I do like the square look.


Ok folks that's all I got... so shoot me some feedback and ideas!!

Terrarium Class 6/23/11

So last Thursday night we hosted our first Make and Take Class! We had a small but mighty group.  It couldn't have gone better. 

Everyone in the class built their own Terrarium.  We provided the glass bubble bowls and all the tools/plants they needed.  These three above are roommates and they were a riot.  We later got a report back that they spent the rest of the evening fighting over the "perfect spot" for their new masterpieces in their apartment.
Chloe (an adorably spunky 1st grader), was our student expert on Terrariums.  I'm pretty sure at this point she was just giving her mom directions as she oversaw the landscaping project.


Cindy (pictured above) brought in this A-MAZING Terrarium container.  It was a perfect size and was stunning.  See the pics below of the finished product.



The whole gang with the Terrariums they built outside the shop.  We are still taking students for future classes this summer.  July 10th Simple Centerpieces 2-3pm and August 13th Mommy and Me Masterpieces 2-3pm More details here! Also if you interested in learning how to build your own Terrarium let us know.  Another class date may be in the works!
