flower drum for alannah hill

Maybe ten or more years ago, I went to Melbourne for the weekend. My dad was doing a big aeroplane conference and I was free to roam the streets until dark. Within about 2 hours of being there I had discovered complete happiness in the form of a shop-  Alannah Hill. 
It was kind of like a florist, but instead of flowers they sold clothes, and instead of buckets of water holding flowers it was hundreds of bazillions of sparkly pretty things looking at me.  I looked at every single thing in the shop. Every skirt, every head piece, every bracelet and bralette. I pretty much could have counted how many threads there were in the carpet. I spent a very long time in there. And all this time later, whenever I set foot into any of Alannah Hills stores,  I still feel a crazy rush of toe tapping joy. 
Where am I going with this? WHY AM I TELLING YOU THIS?

Your friend, ME... The Flower Drum, was asked to create 40 ever lasting flower bombs to bomb every Alannah Hill store in Australia. So as soon as spring has sprung, dance prance and wiggle your pants to a store to see the flower bombs in action, and pick up something nice for yourself too!

checking in

Flower Drum lovers, I AM OK. I am sorry I have been missing in action and only reporting to you briefly. I have been working on a project for a very special and inspiring someone... AND THATS ALL I CAN SAY! I have certainly bitten off more roses than you can poke a thorny stem at.. working around the clock to make sure the job gets done good and proper!  Flower Drum HQ has literally been taken over 100 % with floor to the ceiling boxes, and filled with enough flower bombs to kill a school of skunks. Next week will be business as usual and I will be back to filling your eyeballs with flowery love.
Yours truly & tiredly, FD
