Don't judge! It all started a few weeks ago--my friend's aunt passed away and I wanted to do something for her that would make her smile. I remembered that when my father in law passed away, one of my mother in law's friends (who's a professional clown dontcha know!) brought a sweet little bouquet of balloon flowers and it was just the most thoughtful thing! So I spent an entire morning trying to figure out how to make them and the end result was just adorable! See?
Well, a few days later my cute sister in law and her husband came over for dinner. It was a couple of days before she had surgery so Jack and I decided she needed balloon flowers as well, only this time I attempted to make a vase to hold them in. I've made quite a few since then and I'm just having so much fun with it! It makes me smile to make them and it's fun to see the smiles of those I've given them to.
So--here's my point. Can I make you a bouquet or two? (I'd love to do it for free, but Scott would kill me and it'd be double homocide at this point and, well, my children need their father. And their mother come to think of it.) I can't charge the ridiculous amounts of money (yet! Muahhh hahhh hahhh hahhh hahhhhh) that I've seen these suckers go for since I'm still practicing so I thought it'd be fair to ask $6 for the bouquet with a ribbon around them (these don't stand upright) and $10 if you want a vase so they stand up. Um, you'll also need to come pick them up since A. I'm lazy and B. Gas is expensive.
So if you're looking for the perfect gift for any occasion--birthdays, thank you's, Mother's Day, I even took a bouquet to a funeral today--let me know. I would LOVE to have more excuses to make these darling little things! (this is what they look like in a vase)
