...so here's some of my Floristry. Yes, Floristry. I've started a course to become a professional headbanging Florist and here's three of my designs. I only started a month ago so bear with me.

I'm afraid the picture quality is that of a not brilliant camera phone:

Table Posy

Funeral Wreath

Funeral Spray

Yeah! Nothing says metal like the nosegay on a coffin.

Btw, that doesn't look amateur to me.

Flowers are pretty heavy metal if you ask me. I will now be thinking all day of a reason to justify such a statement, but I am sure there is one.

Anyway, these look beautiful. Tell me, how does one learn to be a florist?

i agree with goat, that looks 0% amateur
congrats!

well done! i like the first one.

Thank you, well I started my course on the 12th of September having never arranged flowers before in my life.

Well my course entails conditioning of flowers to promote longer vase life, I also have to learn all cut flowers and foliages by Latin name and Genus. The actual construction of arrangements is shown through demonstration then emulation and then a lot of practice. thank you for all your positive comments.

Great! Very original! Much cooler than all those kids trying to play guitar and be Devin!

Awesome, thank you.

What about just 'trying to play guitar'? Is that okay?

Very cool arrangements. I dig 'em. (See, how cool is this forum? )

Thank you. I love the people on this forum.

Thank you. I love the people on this forum.

You should, we're all awesome. (Except Eyesore, he's the Cooolest, Daddy-O!)

Oh, and your "amateur" Floristry is much more metal than you give it credit for.

Hell, if they can call Winger "metal".....

(Don't say anything; I like Winger, but they AIN'T metal)

Thank you. I love the people on this forum.

what I failed to mention is that while designing my flower arrangements I wear this:

What are you talking about? That's the most metal apron I've ever seen.

Ah good, good. I'm pleased I'm not loosing it.
