Chelsea panick

With only one more full day in the studio remaining I’m beginning to worry that I have forgotten to prep something for Chelsea…..

Have I woven enough sculptures? 

Have I boxed up my promotional material?

Are all my tools in order?

Have I ordered enough plants?

Is it my sanity? perhaps or is it just a case of the last minute jitters, I think so

I do hope however that the one thing I can’t pack arrives in time, some sun shine please.

It’s amazing how quickly the next flower show can come round, and this years is already deep in the planning stages.

I have my sculpture idea for this year, which incidentally will be a mammoth task to create it, I have my plot from the RHS which is amazing, many thanks Trade Stand staff, and I am meeting with the plat growers tomorrow to see how things are progressing.

Between now and May I will be giving you sneak peaks of the stand design and keep you posted with the building of my largest willow sculpture to date!
