I just discovered that our HS Junior prom has no flowers for the center of each table and has run short of funds. I decided I will go to all the local flower shops and garden centers and beg for freebees and my neighbor and I will put arrangements together then collect them and take them to the nursing homes, hospitals, etc.. Do you 'kill 2 birds with one stone' ? Thounghts? xoxoxoxoxoxoxox

You are such a good person, Raydene. What a nice thing to do for the kids. And then to turn around and use them again to make more people happy is awesome. What a great idea.

I try not to throw stone at birds! Seriously though Raydene I think that is lovely what you and your neighbour are doing and hope you receive the amounts of flowers that you need to complete this project and that the residents of these homes will enjoy and appreciate the arrangements afterwards. Well done you. Ellie :D

That is quite a task to take on. Thank you for being a person who cares for others. Kindness is running short now days and every little bit helps. I think the nursing homes would love the brightening up a lot. Thanks.

What a wonderful idea - I know you can do a great job of this! I especially like the idea of redistributing the flowers to places where they will bring a lot of joy - I am not surprised you came up with this idea! I do kill 2 birds with one stone but better not talk about that here! lol xxx
