Flower Mart trip...

Posted Wednesday, April 18, 2007 5:27 PM

I was feeling kind of down after my exam this morning and since I had taken the rest of the day off, I ventured over to the SF Flower Mart to check it out... of course, that means I came home with a bundle of flowers that I had to play with (how can anyone go and not resist?) 

I have no idea whether any of this will be incorporated into wedding decor-- frankly, I'm having one of those days where I'm just frustrated with everything (work, life, social stuff, wedding planning) so I'll just share-- including the cost of the two vases and all floral supplies, the three arrangements probably total around $40 together (the vases were probably $15 of that).  The red vanda orchids are actually silk flowers (they looked amazingly like real ones) so the flowers were a bit pricier.. the rest (ti leaves, white and green orchids, horsetail. dried lotus pods) were real.  I had lots of leftover ti leaves and horsetail at the end also.
