This week on the podcast, Kelly is interviewing Janine, our kindhearted Team Flower Community Builder and Content Coordinator and owner of Bundles & Blooms floral design. Janine is such an asset to the Team Flower Staff and is gifted with incredible people skills! (She may or may not have earned the title “The Awkward Reducer” on our team.) In this episode, she’s talking through the must-haves of her small in-home floral studio, from floral paintings to bundles of flowers different than event florals. Janine also discusses her onsite delivery process, how to handle when something didn’t go as planned, and shares her best story of someone receiving flowers. Kelly gives a tip for what to do when bridal party ribbons get wet, and Janine also shares her thoughts on where the floral industry can overcome weaknesses.
