No pink larkspur for the Standing Funeral Spray?, No Problem! Just like hair coloring (if you actually want to become a blond), there is the wonderful "Just For Flowers" paint that can change any flower to the color of your choice. Florists also have the wonderful privilege of being creative in a pinch and not letting what you don't have get in the way of what you need to create, for the funeral for instance. The recipe from the internet order (which will be another blog for another day) called for pink larkspur (a "line" flower). And since day one of floral school we learned to "Sell What's In Your Wagon" when you have so many flowers already, why order something extra and end up having more in your wagon to sell before the flowers spoil? Necessity is the Mother of Creativity, so let's create that same look with a little paint and a filler flower that has the same look as a line flower. Voila! (and we sure need to use up that white calcynia from the wedding 2 weeks ago!)
