MARTINIS AND MATISSE



Just some of the floral art Matt has created for Martinis and Matisse, a wonderful fundraiser for the Clearwater Free Clinic.

For several years now, we at Carlson Wildwood Florist have been priviledged to donate floral arrangements for this worthwhile event.

Unfortunately this year we are unable to attend. We will be at the Florida State Florist Association convention in Destin, Fl. The Martinis and Matisse event is a party we hate to miss! Area restaurants provide wonderful food and drink. The art lottery is fun and exciting. Matt was lucky enough to win an original oil last year and he treasures it!

The Clearwater Free Clinic provides health care free of charge to many people in our community who would otherwise not be able to afford it. This, unfortunately includes more and more of our working poor.

Martinis are provided courtesy of Bonefish Grill

Refreshments are being donated by many of the areas premiere restaurants



Bella Vino , Bonefish Grill, Carrabba's Italian Grill, E & E Steakout, Greektown Grill, Guppy's on the Beach, Island Way Grill, Marlin Darlin' Grill, Mecca Cafe, Rumba Island Bar and Grill, and Salt Rock Grill

If you don't have a ticket this year, be sure to put it on your calendar for next!!

Best wishes,
Cheryl

Princess Fergie


If you have not visited our store, then you may not know we almost always have a furry friend here. The friends are usually rescues, and until now always have been golden retrievers. Our latest friend is Fergie, a French Bulldog.

Fergie has never met a person who wasn't her BFF, but watch out if you are a stuffed toy. She is a killer!
