The New Beginning Begins!

Opening flowers Classes started Saturday, January 6th. It reached 72 degrees that day! It was a lot of fun teaching in the new space. The sun was shining and we had the door open. People stopped by to check us out. Fresh flowers, home-baked banana bread, and some sewing, (oops), made it a great day!
