Why I stopped relying on floral foam in my designs

Honestly, a lot of florists swear by floral foam for keeping flowers in place. Tbh, I quit using it six months ago and now just use chicken wire and green tape. Ngl, my bouquets stay fresh longer and I'm cutting down on trash. My customers really like that it's better for the planet too.

My work scraps could fill a landfill, so good on you.

Man, my friend just cleared out her home office and found boxes of old drafts. She said it felt like digging through her own personal paper mine. Really makes you realize how much stuff we all hold onto.

Seriously? Old drafts are just stuff we were too lazy to toss. Calling it a "personal paper mine" makes it sound deep, but it's mostly junk we forgot about. I bet ninety percent of it went right into recycling. Did she actually find anything good in there?
