Trip to Turkey for bougainvillea

Sitting on a plane on my way to Turkey to join family out there. They are lucky enough to have a villa there in the hills that is literally surrounded by pink, yellow, orange and white bougainvillea wild flowers. The petals dry quickly out in the sun and we are able to send them home. Bougainvillea make lovely floaty confetti petals. When thrown up they float down like fairies. They look lovely just loose in baskets as they are not really suitable for cones and small organza bags as the petals are very large, similar size to larger rose petals.

Think local first, buy local when you can, be a local!

It is great when a customer calls and says "it is so nice to be able to buy local product".

Comments like this leave me with a feeling of satisfaction and I would like to say It promotes a sense of community. If you want to get to know your neighbours and others in your community, supporting local businesses and spreading the word is a great way to do that.

Locally owned businesses can make more local purchases requiring less transportation which in general terms means a reduction in environmental impact.

Local businesses often hire people with a better understanding of the products they are selling and take more time to get to know customers.

Local businesses are owned by people who live in the community, are less likely to leave, and are more invested in the community’s future.

One lovely lady wanted to order some  organza bags of natural confetti for a wedding and needed to call me to ask some questions as I had a made a teeny mistake on my Website and she was having problems ordering exactly what she wanted. We had a lovely conversation and I was able to supply her with these lovely bags of natural confetti She was thrilled that she was able to buy local and speak to somebody who knew what they were talking about (hopefully)!!
