It's less than £30 - it's all doable. I can pay for the stall with a days flowers sales from my gate....the stall isn't just for the extra flower sales. A little advertising may get me some more wedding bouquet orders. The couple of days I can do over the next coupe of sales would give me an idea on what will selll/how many I can expect to need, interest etc.....and I would only want to sell seasonal flowers - so April until the first frosts

What about snails? They can look cute. There's a delicatessen where I live called Snails, its really popular despite its name!
I did think snail when I drew it....I just wanted to get you thinking! 
snail is better than worm.

OH suggested similar but I thought using a particular flower name may make people think that's all I do?

Could you combine your flower stall with your other arty crafts. How about celebratory packages - flowers, cake and an item of jewellery or an enamelled thingy as a permanent keepsake?
How about ladybirds in your logo? They're cute too.

Yes, I was hoping I could sell enamel goods - a little jewellery/hanging trinkets etc. at the same time as the flowers...

Snail earrings perhaps?

My SIL used to live at Rose Cottage so naturally her shop was called Rose Cottage Flowers! Smile Does your house have a name you could incorporate Scarlet?

Mine would be 'No 22 flowers'!! Rolleyes Big Grin
