A Strange Bouquet

February 13 is a big day in the flower game. I know because I have been behind the scenes on that day since my Aunt Donna and Uncle Gene owned Milwaukie Floral. They even let me drive a really old hollowed out blue van to make deliveries.

So I was interested to see this development from FTD….

…but where is the beer. You can get roses and champagne, zinnias and bourbon, peonies and gin but no beer? Weird. A lambic would be a prime candidate.

There is some found art that is good and others that are just fine. I find the flowers that RVA Capworks makes to be really well done.

Joshua Stolberg makes more than flowers and you should check out his portfolio. It must take some serious dexterity to pull the bottlecaps into just the right position. I like the business card holders and star magnets as well. I think the larger signs get a little much but the little things have pop to them.

You can learn more about RVA Capworks in this Richmond newspaper article.
