Pricing
We can work with any budget, and whether you're spending a few hundred or a
few thousand dollars, you'll be delighted with how far we can make it go. There
are several reasons why we can provide you with the best value you'll find anywhere.
Sources
While we use some nursery flowers, we also make extensive use of local sources,
including Nancy's own gardens, woods and meadows, to provide an abundance of
flowers at a fraction of the price of the imported and hothouse flowers used
almost exclusively by traditional florists. If you've consulted with a florist,
you know that he'll charge you by the stem. Since we don't pay for most of our
flowers by the stem, neither do you. So you can afford to be lavish. Our still
lifes also feature many items gleaned from farmers' markets and the produce
section of the grocery store.
Low Overhead
Because we do not have a shop or a full-time support staff, we have very low
overhead. These savings are passed on to you.
Flexibility
We do not offer a series of rigidly designed decorating packages for you to
choose from - you can buy only as much as you want. And if you choose to use
us for both your floral and decorating needs, we can usually offer you an even
better price on the combination of services.
Nancy says: "Creativity is the key to affordability. We are constantly adding to our stock of accessories, but we try to look beyond overpriced specialty catalogues. The garden supply center, the antique shop, even the hardware and building supply dealers are gold mines for the creatively inclined! "
Reuse
We try to avoid disposable products and to reuse items wherever possible. Wouldn't
you like your floral arrangements in real silver containers that you have to
return rather than in cheap plastic ones that you get to keep?
