SELWYN TIMES<br />

dISCOVER<br />

Fresh flowers for<br />

every occasion<br />

After flying high as a member of Air New Zealand’s cabin crew<br />

for many years, three years ago West Melton resident Sandy<br />

Sharp landed on a different pathway, re-training in floristry and<br />

starting her own home-based business, Miss Lily Flowers.<br />

Flowers are Sandy’s passion, and she<br />

would like to see more New Zealanders<br />

following the European style of always<br />

having fresh flowers in the home. She plays<br />

her part in making them readily available<br />

with her mobile flower trailer, named<br />

Connie, which she sets up in Cathedral<br />

Square Christchurch every Friday and at<br />

the West Melton Market on<br />

Saturday mornings.<br />

At her Miss Lily<br />

Flowers studio in<br />

West<br />

Melton<br />

Sandy creates<br />

exquisite floral<br />

arrangements<br />

for every<br />

occasion<br />

in life –<br />

from weddings to funerals, birthdays to<br />

anniversaries.<br />

“I prefer a more natural look for bouquets<br />

and arrangements and I’m finding there<br />

is quite a following for that. I love the<br />

creativity of the process and also the contact<br />

with people that floristry gives me.”<br />

She also provides floral arrangements<br />

for the real estate sector when homes for<br />

sale are staged for presentation to potential<br />

purchasers.<br />

Orders for floral arrangements<br />

can be placed through the Miss Lily<br />

Flowers Facebook page by email to<br />

misslilyflowers@xtra.co.nz, or by calling<br />

021 342 924. Sandy will be happy to<br />

discuss your requirements and create a<br />

memorable arrangement, whatever the<br />

occasion calls for.<br />
