Recently my good friend John Klingel sent me a copy of his lovely book, “The Frugal Florist.”

I was so excited to get this book, I instantly delved into the beautiful pages of this step-by-step do-it-yourself floral bouquets. When I was finished with the book, I had to write to John and tell him how much I loved the book. In fact, I decided to write a testimonial about it and wanted to share that with you. Here’s what I wrote:

“Thank you so much for writing The Frugal Florist – a long overdue book that is sure to  raise awareness of the intrinsic value of adding flowers to our lives.  Flowers bring such joy and comfort to us and The Frugal Florist shows consumers how to work with flowers and add them to their environment on a regular basis. Your book helps people explore their creativity and fulfill their desire to express themselves on a deeper level. It is like walking through a garden and picking the perfect arrangement to express our emotions. I highly recommend “The Frugal Florist ~ Do it Yourself Flowers on a Budget” as a great starting point for anyone who would like to learn the art of floral design!”  Heidi Richards, Chief Goddess ~ Eden Florist & Gift Baskets www.EdenFlorist.com
