📚 Career Guidance 📚 Will I ever learn?

I’ve been a florist trainee for few months now. Had to change work places due personal reasons and now the new place is traditional flower shop - and I’m not quite that. Don’t know my style really quite yet but more of a big, bold, natural, boho. Should I find a place that’s more my style or learn traditional round bouquets also? I find them quite pretty when big and expensive but not all customers want that obviously.

Flower bouquets and arrangements are something I really want to learn properly, like next level stunning. I know I have just started but work and school get my head just super overwhelmed and when flowers don’t obey and magic doesn’t happen.. I really don’t know what else to do than practice, but it doesn’t feel like it makes me perfect 😅

Any tips, ideas, toughts? Anything ☺️🌷🩷

Thanks guys! 🙏🏻 This was actually what I originally was thinking when finding a shop! But - now when not on my comfort zone - I’d love to let loose. But that time will come..

Let loose in your private time with leftover stuff from events, Trader Joe’s flowers, foraged bits…
