Me - M&S Schmalberg is a company that makes fabric flowers. They work with a lot of TV shows, movies, Broadway shows, celebrities, and more. They also offer free tours of their factory, and we were invited to one. It was really interesting. It is very different than any other tours I have been on which was cool.  It was fascinating to get learn about how fabric flowers are made. I never really thought about how many different kinds there are. A lot of them are pretty. They have nice colors and interesting shapes. We each even got to to take one of them home. It was teal with white polka dots, and it is a hair clip. I  learned that fabric flowers can be used for so many different things including hair accessories, hats, outfits and more. It was a unique and fun tour. 

Mom - Fabric flowers have so many uses. They can be used in various works of art,  in hats, dresses, shoes, and other types of clothing, on their own as decorations,  and more. You see them all the time in movies, on TV shows, and on stage and they fit in so seamlessly you don't even always realize their there. Many of the fabric flowers that you see in all these various forms of entertainment as well as in advertisements and more were manufactured by one of the premier firms in the custom fabric flower industry, M&S Schmalberg.

If you are looking for a unique and interesting way to spend an hour or two, M&S Schmlberg offers free tours of their New York City factory.
