Exciting news! I've decided to revive my home-based floral design business this spring. Haven't worked out all the details yet, but I'm taking baby steps to get there.
First, my friend Elaine was able to find and convert the logo she designed for me 12 years ago. Cute, isn't it? Elaine is also a talented water color artist. Check out her work.

Hope these photos have added a bit of cheer to this dreary day in Atlanta -- clearly not ready to watermark my pics. Perhaps I should take a photography class.
I'll be keeping you posted on my progress.
You'll do great, Meaux! Best of luck with the launch!
ReplyDeleteLove the logo! Love the idea! Love your masterpiece! I want to be a client! I even have a footed milk glass container with my mother's floral frog (spiky thing) in it ready to go! Congratulations!
