I do believe it is! For some people, at least.
To help anyone interested in doing their own flowers, here’s a little PSA:
Last November Miss Penguin and I both went to a DIY Flower Workshop hosted by Karen of Huckleberry Karen Designs. I have to say, I learned SO MUCH from that workshop. Ever since, I’ve been making pretty arrangements in my house and admiring the centerpieces in Safeway. Let’s just say I’ve gained a whole new appreciation for flowers. I’m not sure I’m physically capable of making a gorgeous bouquet, but there were a lot of girls there who were surprised by their own talent and are planning to DIY their flowers!
I just got an email from Karen–it turns out that she’s doing another one on April 6th! For those San Francisco Bay Area brides who are interested in doing your own flowers (or just learning more about flowers in general), this was an awesome workshop. Check it out here! I’m going to go again, because practice makes perfect. ![]()
Here are some pictures from the one I went to:
All of our bouquets:

Here’s Jackie (a fellow student) and Miss Penguin!

And here’s me!

And on a completely unrelated note, HAPPY ST. PATTY’S DAY, EVERYONE!
