florist for a day

doing someone a favor, i became florist-cum-despatch for a day...

my room turned into a bouquet making station.
















fresh-cut flowers bought from far east flora - i bought 2 bunches of hydrangea (one in blue, another in pink), 10 cream coloured gerberas, 10 pink roses, bear grass, apidistra leaves, 'million stars' for fillers and unidentified berry-like red flowers.



















One of the bouquets. didnt have time to take picture of the other bouquet cos i had to rush off to do the delivery.
















also made a present out of the 'million stars' fillers.



















personalised card.

















verdict: profit margin is low as flowers are imported and expensive. next time i ll create something out of hibiscus, crinum lily, ixora, bougainvillea, etc..

Just wondered how much you charged?

Online websites(which does deliveries) like Far East Flora, Noel gifts, Katong Florist , Prince's Flower shop.... will give you a good idea on how to set the pricing.

Another way to save money is if you have a lot of deliveries, you could hire a despatch company to do it for you.

You could try Orchids! Can get them nice and cheap especially with direct sales from Orchid farms in Jalan Kayu or Lim Chu Kang
