The November meeting presented "Pinterest Holidays," which consisted of Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Designs in both fresh and permanent flowers! Three of our SAFD members, Lilian Walker, Pam Bates, and Martha Els created these lovely and extraordinary designs!
Lilian is a former floral professor at Lone Star College. Pam is the current President of SAFD. Martha is our Program Chairman and a freelance floral designer.
