My First Post

This week has been a busy one - family visiting, grandkids, and lots of entertaining. My brother brought some fantastic Ca. wines( Darioushe) that we enjoyed with lots of different foods. Easter, another holiday that is all about food and candy!  I also discovered that my 10 year old grandson is one of the biggest fans of my stix.

Nevertheless, I thought that this would be a good time to start this blog. I recently participated as a vendor in  the Naples Botanical Garden Flower Show,  and I was thrilled by how many people were starting to recognize my creations. I've branched out this year. In addition to ever more intricate orchid stakes, I've begun a line of what I call napkin twists - check em out here. Or here - here's a picture of a napkin twist wrapped around a candle  Perfect for when you candlesticks are a little tired - pretty - isn't it?  They are great as bottle toppers for when that bottle of wine isn't quite as special as it should be!


Anyway - what I really wanted to say was that I'm excited to be here, and I'm looking forward to getting to know you better.
