So I ended up getting to do the flowers for an event held at the Wetland Discovery Building in Kaysville where they were having an award program and ground breaking for a new off campus building for Extension Students (which I am a proud graduate from). I met with the director and walked around the building and his one suggestion for me was to be creative and use cuttings from the different kaysville buildings.
So that is what I did and I have to say I think it is by far my most creative piece of work...it might not look that amazing, but 90% of the stuff I used I found from different flowers, bushes and trees. I used green pods from a Golden Rain Tree, giant hosta leaves, sumac clusters, grasses, bullrushes, cat tails, echinacea, russian sage to name a few. It was fun to be creative and use things I'd never thought of using!
