Activity- Assisting with a funeral piece

One day when it was cose to closing (6:00), I had finished all my work and Laura, Marlene's daughter, was working on a funeral foam peice for the next day. It was a horse head and was to be specific colors. Laura was using  various mums with no stem at all and attaching them to the foam with pins. She asked me to help her by cutting off the flowers from their stems and put them on a tray for her, so she could get it done quickly and into the cooler. She used copper colored ones, and the closest to brown they had for the majority, two wooden balls for the eyes, and yellow for the blonde mane. Unfortunately she ran out of flowers, so I had to go look in the coolers for more flowers, or others close to that color that would work. I couldn't find any, but Laura and I managed to make do with what we had and what I had found to make a really nice piece.
