Last Tuesday was an ‘Artist’s Day Out’  with my friend Sue.  We visited the Philadelphia flower show.The theme was Springtime in Paris.  Sue was more excited than I was at looking at a lot of the Parisan displays because she has actually BEEN to Paris and was taken back by the amazing designs that depicted the actual places. I was just in awe of the large scale designs and the use of product and flowers in such unique ways! We arrived there at about 11:30 am and it was SO CROWDED already…I don’t love crowds but the designs were worth the wait to see. It’s easy to forget about all the people and get lost in a design, but I did feel guilty about looking at a design too long when there was a crowd 4 rows deep behind me : (    I found my favorite fan willow and black pussy willow at a fresh flower stand there and some fun water pearls for my upcoming demos. We lasted about 4 & 1/2 hours then died ! and had to drive home to NJ. All in all a fun day. Thanks Sue for driving!!!
