1. Which flowers are seasonal (which seasons), which are all year round and are in high demand for wedding bouquets? For boutonnières?
2. What are the various bouquet shapes, and the various ways to put a bouquet and boutonnière together?
8. Where are the best ideas and examples to use for myself and my clients?
and touching base on:
10. What technical skills are required and need the most practice in able for me to succeed?
1) Wedding Bouquets - for links that showed how to DIY steps, including hand tying and cascade bouquets.
2) Boutonnières - for links that showed how to make Boutonnières, and the various styles.
3) Bouquet Samples - of images of different bouquets already made.
4) Wedding Flowers Category - that provided information on flower bouquet types, symbolic meanings of flowers, types of flowers per season/month and per colour theme.
In the process, I was able to learn how to search for various sites outside of the app, and then pinned them to my boards.
Furthermore, I tried to find YouTube videos that could help as well (that were not already pinned in Pinterest). I don't use YouTube religiously and only ever posted videos for school or work. I created my own first ever playlists.
