Hi, This is Karen. This is the very first time I have ever even blogged or searched sites for financial support and positive feedback. My husband basically forced me to share on a blog as he calls me the queen of thrift. I am a friend who manages a nursing home. The local funeral homes beg her to take the plants that are left after funerals. She uses them at times but generally calls me and I get them. I dry them and make floral art, potpourri, wreaths etc… which I then give as gifts or sell I also use the dried seeds for planting flowers or filling in my
wild flower field. One day when I was at walmart returning a palm tree plant that died I asked the clerk at the service desk if I could please have all the dead, dried pieces. I think she wanted to call the local looney bin. Yet I used those dried plant parts and designed a wreath for my home that gets so many compliments. Smell a flower today.

Hi! I enjoy reading your blog, and I like homework flowers and plants! I have my blog about "plants home", as well as boards of the florist and lovers! Thank you!

What the heck! No one is going to enjoy the plants anyway if I don’t at least try.

I want to try, but there is just no way I could ever do it. Too creepy for me.
