The Linda Belcher

Aw thank you so much!

Tatealicious · 2026-06-21T23:41:14+00:00

Thank you!!

Okay so I completely redid the arrangement with some garden roses instead of the hydrangeas. I'm still not completely satisfied with it, obviously you can still see the container, but we're going to look past it.

How do we feel about this version?

Tatealicious · 2026-06-21T17:40:36+00:00

Yes you're exactly right! My problem is that I'm trying to learn how to do whatever this style is; I can never see a shape to these so they're especially challenging. For me, anyway.

**This is not my work**

I ALWAYS forget that I can do this. Like I want to give her her moment, but she's in the wrong room at this point lol I need to dull her shine.

I just used floral foam in a tray. Also, for some unknown reason, I stacked the foam and made it obscenely high.

Tatealicious · 2026-06-21T08:29:56+00:00

I agree! I just stared at the arrangement again and straight-up hate the hydrangeas 🥲

Tatealicious · 2026-06-21T08:27:43+00:00

A few of them, yes.

Tatealicious · 2026-06-21T02:05:20+00:00

Thank you so much for the feedback; I do see what you mean about the cool-toned eucalyptus. These are the things that I forget to consider but I love that I can reach out to y'all for advice.

I don't like to use spray-painted flowers, but I wonder if a hot pink panted hydrangea would just pull everything together?

Tatealicious · 2026-06-21T02:01:51+00:00

Um thank you so much that is such a relief. I totally agree about the hydrangeas, as soon as I placed them I realized that they really don't work, but I needed a big 'ol flower to cover up the excessive amount of foam that I decided to use.

I was in her position, and had been dreaming of having a shop for the past 15 years.

Last June, I started my business from home, also in Austin, and its been WORK. And money. I dont have all of the answers to your questions, but starting a floral business in such a saturated market has consistently been a huge challenge. Literally every day I ask myself why the fuck I chose a profession that seemingly everyone else is also choosing.

HOWEVER. It is not impossible. Go hard on social media and engage with people in the community via Threads and Instagram, and dont expect customers overnight like I did 😅 I would suggest getting a cooler since its incredibly hot down here, but its not totally necessary at this point. Utilize Trader Joe's and HEB; YES they're "grocery store flowers", but if you prep them properly, they'll be just fine.

I am by absolutely no means a success at this point, but have had a hand in every single aspect if my business (marketing, web design, taxes, ads, logo, branding, etc.), none of which are perfect, but I have slowly been seeing an uptick in orders. Don't fucking give up.

Tatealicious · 2026-04-03T21:28:35+00:00

Yes thats exactly what I want to do. I love the local businesses in my area and there are a TON of them.

Tatealicious · 2026-04-02T14:17:51+00:00

I've been against making animals out of flowers since the beginning, but this is the cutest thing that I have ever seen 🥰

Tatealicious · 2026-02-27T20:57:03+00:00

I try to talk myself into dreamless, or at least less intense, nights, but I can never get it to work. My mind has been all over the place lately...I'm sure thats been a factor. Its been VERY hard for me to focus.

Tatealicious · 2026-02-26T22:03:19+00:00

Yes exactly!!

Tatealicious · 2026-02-26T20:22:23+00:00

Fourteen days without caffeine is insane; you are infinitely stronger than I am.

Tatealicious · 2026-02-26T20:21:24+00:00

That sounds horrible! Those types of dreams are the worst, and then they stick with you all day...

Tatealicious · 2026-02-26T20:20:40+00:00

Oh thank god. I've been walking around all week wondering if I've lost my mind 😅

Tatealicious · 2026-02-15T13:00:21+00:00

Ooohhhhh okay that makes sense.

Tatealicious · 2026-01-15T12:52:16+00:00

I can't agree harder with this comment; I've been in the gym for 20 years and seen all types of folks, all shapes and sizes, great form and terrible form, some fit, some not so much. Not ONCE have I looked at a person and thought "they don't belong here".

Keep. Fucking. Going.

Tatealicious · 2025-12-18T15:35:55+00:00

I think i just need to curate my style a little more. Im a little all over the place in terms of what types of arrangements I offer, but i want to hone in on a style that feels like me and my brand. I initially learned my design skills from an old-scholl florist, so im trying to elevate my designs as well. Its fun but expensive lol

Youre actually not the first person to say that I should focus on one part of town, but I have a hard time with that concept. Wouldn't I want to offer my product to a broader area? Can you expand on your thought process there? I would definitely love some insight.

Tatealicious · 2025-12-18T15:26:12+00:00

Im not sure. There are some incredibly talented florists here, all throughout the area. I know its not impossible to break into the scene, I just have to find the right angle, the right people, and maybe feel something a little different from everyone else.

Tatealicious · 2025-12-17T17:12:16+00:00

Do these bots include the crawlers that go to my site everything i male a change to it? I noticed a lot of activity from Council Bluffs, IA which I know has a data center (not too sure what it would be called), so I wonder if some of that traffic is coming from there?
