    Mr. Allen's Florals

    That's the name of Allen's new business. It seems Allen has a way with flowers. He helped me take an appallingly bad arrangement and turn it into something presentable

    How Bad can they get? Before:


    What IS this?

    I laughed when I saw the dried flowers hot-glued into the pod thing!

    Here Allen was selecting which type of greens to use


    And then he had to decided where to place the grass


    In the end we decided against the green. Mr. Allen is quite satisfied with his work


    He thought that we needed something fuller since the office is very traditional with Queen Anne style furniture in burgundy and navy blue... I think he knows his stuff!

    YES, I do believe Allen has a good eye for floral arrangements! I like the new one MUCH better! More traditional and elegant rather than trendy and exotic

    Ours just drag flowers around the house and snap their stems, so I'm very impressed by Mr Allen's efforts!

    Well I must say Allen, a job well done. I have a few floral pieces that are in desperate need of arranging.
    Any suggestions?

    Yes, Mr. Allen sure does. He says:
    Stay away from the "trendy flowers - such as is exhibited by the BEFORE picture. This will look dated before you finish making it. Stay away from hot-gluing dried flowers into wooden pod things -again as ehibited in the BEFORE photo. If you end up with something remotely resembling the BEFORE photo, toss it in the garbage and call me at 1-800-mr-allen"

    Oh boy, I think this is all going to his head! I had to shoo him off the mantle tonight when he was trying to play with my irises!
