"The next thing you have to start thinking about, what kind of shape you want your wreath to be or wall hanging, is you need to come up with a concept. And, a lot of times people are inspired, as well as myself, with going out into nature and coming out with a concept and ideas. And, whether you want to bring a piece of nature into the house, or office space, or in any room. You need to take a look and think about if you're going to put it into a kitchen, you try to figure the materials and what have you, and the themes and idea of what will go into a kitchen. If you're looking more into an office space where it's for the general public, you try to find something that will help go along with your work and what you do. If you're like a doctor, you want a lot more flowers and pretty, and relaxing. If you're just in a design firm or something like that you want something very striking and simple. And, what you need to do is think about the type of flowers you want to use, whether it's going to be dried materials or whether it's going to be silks or you're going to use non-floral objects, dried materials, anything for a base. A lot of times if you take a nice branch of a tree, you could use, create a nice swag to go over a window or into a bathroom mirror, just by using some of the things you find out in nature. So, the next thing you need to do is start thinking about a concept and what, how you're going to, what you're going to design, and what you wanted to look at. And, we're going to do a tropical waterfall."
