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 />
