This week I finally stopped overthinking and went after something I’ve been dreaming about for months… selling my cut flower bouquets. 💐
I almost talked myself out of it so many times I kept thinking, What if nobody buys them? What if they’re not good enough?
But I decided to just go for it.
And somehow… I SOLD OUT in less than 24 hours. 🥹🫶🏻
I’m so grateful for everyone who bought a bouquet, shared my posts, or encouraged me along the way. Your support means the world to me, and it’s giving me the confidence to keep growing this little dream.
Thank you for supporting my small business. 🤍

... Read moreStarting a small flower business can feel daunting, especially when self-doubt creeps in. I remember wondering, "What if no one likes my bouquets?" or "What if my flowers aren't good enough?" But pushing past those worries and just taking action changed everything. From planning my backyard flower farm to hand-picking and arranging each bouquet with care, the process became a labor of love that customers could feel.
One tip I found invaluable was to share my journey authentically on social media. By connecting with people interested in backyard farming, cut flowers, and bouquets, I found a supportive community that not only encouraged me but also spread the word about my flower cart. Engaging with followers and responding to their feedback helped me improve and build confidence.
Another lesson? Quality and presentation matter. Each bouquet felt unique because I selected blooms that complemented each other’s colors and textures. Attention to detail transformed simple cut flowers into appealing arrangements that customers were excited to purchase. Seeing the bouquets go sold out in less than a day was incredibly rewarding and reinforced that passion combined with quality will resonate.
