When Did Arts And Crafts Become A Thing?

Fern watches the woman and, when she makes the joke about being famous, the girl gives a happy, short bark of laughter. Eyes dance with mischievousness as she says, “Well, I always did want to be famous.” Giving a wink and a giggle, she then dips her head in greeting to Lia. The woman brings up some alternatives and options, which makes Fern scrunch up her face in concentration. What does it want it to look like? Hmm. Finally, she looks to Lia, a sheepish expression on her face as the girl admits, “Oh, uh, I had a very specific idea in mind. They have to be pretty.” The grin is shy as Fern admits she really has no idea what she is making.

Clearing her throat, she adds, “I was hoping to put some flowers together and maybe put them in pots along the tables. I picked some sunflowers and roses but I know there are others we can find. I picked the ivy because it is green and thought it would make a good contrast. But, uh, that was all I really have.” Shyly she looks to Lia for help. Fern just wanted to make pretty decorations for the feast. She had no idea that she could kill others if she picked the wrong thing.
