Ok so for my second Hindu wedding that is being held in a covered tent in the backyard of his parents house. With linens like this
http://www.yourweddingday.com/ywd/images...
but in red, and no chair covers (it looked so bad)
I was thinking of using the largest one (with the flowers in it) of these vases
http://www.potterybarn.com/products/p332...
And then surrounding them with these going every other size. With orange tea lights.
http://www.crateandbarrel.com/family.asp...
This would leave me with about 220 dollars for the floral for the centerpieces.
Number 1: could arrangements be done (without carnations) for 220 dollars for each?
Number 2: is this going to look ok?
Number 3: What kind of arrangements can be done, they have to match the red. Other then that any jewel tones, and no white.
Opinions on the centerpiece/ideas?
First off, or course you can do $220 per table for flowers. I'm using orchids %26amp; other tropicals %26amp; mine are only $40-$60 per table, so considering what you're willing to spend, I'm getting a picture in my head that would be extravagant, large, tall, lots of color . . .
Some options first on greenery %26amp; fill-in, would be Bells of Ireland (which I'm also using)
http://www.amazonflowers.us/images/Bells...
Twigs for height/interest:

You could use gladiolus. They're really impressive height wise %26amp; there's every color imaginable, including red %26amp; oranges.

My favorite is the orchid. The taller stems w/ smaller flower are Oncidiums:

If it were me, I would think that fuchsia Dendrobiums would be a must:

Lilies are another great option, especially because there are so many colors %26amp; types. The Asiatic Lilies come in red, like this:

The Gloriosa Lily is also red %26amp; I love the way they hang:

Hope that helps a little!
Reply:i think its pretty. you could do arrangements for 220 you could choose less expensive flowers, or you could do one or two big flowers per table. at one wedding i saw arrangements made out of nothing but baby's breath and it was really pretty and fairly inexpensive.. another thing you could do is use silk flowers, reasonably priced ( better if they are on sale) and you dont have to worry about dealing with a florist you dont know. good luck!
Reply:Here's an idea.... for silk or fresh to conceal the stems, just add pretty ribbon in the water with a few long stemmed flowers:

Reply:It probably depends just on where your future in-laws live. I know it could be done here, but the cost of living is very low in KY compared to other places. The further out of the city you are, the better chance there if of getting them for your price.
You don't have to make deals with the florists right now, but can you just kind of bop around to the shops in the town and ask to see some of their work? Maybe you could look at the more elaborate displays and inquire about the pricing for those to get some idea.
I think the arrangements themselves will look beautiful, but you may want to do a trial run with one complete set of the vases and some silk flowers, just to make sure that everyone seated will be able to see each other clearly around them and be able to converse freely.
I think lilys (not calla, but tiger and other field lilys) are beautiful and would work well, and gladiolas would be gorgeous. They come in all kinds of jewel tones. For the shortest vases, daisies might be okay...but a mix of yellow and red or something. Leave the dyed blue and green to someone else! (I've always thought that looks so unnatural.)
Best of luck!
Reply:I think you could definitely do something for $220, you just need to pick bigger flowers, things that take up more space so you need less of them like hydrangeas, peonies, dahlias, sunflowers, etc. The idea sounds really pretty.
Reply:They are all lovely. However, my only concern is that at every wedding I have been too, the tall centerpieces seem to impede conversation. They also interfere with picture taking.
Reply:Not really sure what you are paying for that vase with the flowers in it but I just purchased 8 of the exact same thing at the Christmas Tree Shops for 12.99 ea.
Reply:I don't know about floral arrangements, but I'm sure you could do BEAUTIFUL ones for 220 each. I think you have great taste, the linens are beautiful and I love the candle holders/flower holders you chose for the tables.
Reply:I would use a lower center vase because you want guests to be able to see over it so that they can converse with each other. I would pick one size of the votive candle holder that is lower than the vase and use that either four or six of them around the vase. Arrangements can be done for a lot less than 220 with using a vase that size. Even if you do all red roses, it wouldn't cost 220 for flowers. I think I would compliment the red instead of trying to match it because reds are very difficult to match.
Reply:Old tires would look nice.

Who gets flowers?
I've got to start interviewing florists soon, and I'm trying to make a list of the flowers I'll need for our wedding. I've got the centerpieces and the bouquets down, but I'm not sure who all is supposed to get a boutineer or corsage. Obviously the groomsmen get boutineers and the mothers get corsages, but who else? I want to have an accurate count so I can figure out my floral budget. Thanks! Oh, and what other arranged bouquets will I need as well? I know I'll need a couple of arrangements for the altar, but what else?
Who gets flowers?
Okay!! Other than your bouquet and the centerpieces on the dinner tables, make sure you have other tables counted as well- if you are doing anything for the buffet table (if you are having one), gift table (ditto), guest book table, etc.
A few arrangements at the altar are nice, also decide if you want to have anything at the end of the pews and if so, are they going to be floral?
Dont'd forget flower petals - for the flower girls (if theyre allowed to drop them), as well as possibly having guests throw them on you (instead of rice, etc.), and possibly decorating tables with them.
For boutonnieres, corsages, and bouquets, you have obviously the bride and groom, then the groomsmen and bridesmaids, and then mothers and fathers. Some people also choose to honor grandparents with corsages/boutonnieres, or any other guests you want to distinguish, such as godparents. It is also very nice to have anyone who is doing something for you in the ceremony, like reading or singing, to have one.
Also decide on if you want flowers or some other topper on your cake.
Oh and if your flower girls arent or cant drop petals, make sure you have something for them - a mini-bouquet or a pomander ball, or something.
And decide if you are planning to throw the bouquet-you may want a smaller, less expensive "tossing" bouquet instead of using your real one if you want to keep/preserve your own.
All of this is optional-you can stick to the bare bones (wedding party and parents) or flesh it out the the rest of this, but there shouldnt be anything I didnt put on the list that is usually done. Don't forget if you want to save money or do things a little differently, you can use silk flowers instead of real ones, you can choose what types of flowers you use-different ones cost A LOT differently, you can have bridesmaids carry candles or flower girls ring bells, etc. You can also get bouquets and boutonnieres made out of swarovski crystals which are really pretty, or you could do non-floral centerpieces (like floating candles, etc). Just some ideas; good luck!!!
Reply:Don't forget the ushers. And congratulations!!!
Reply:You'd be just as married if you had no flowers at all, so the answer is "anyone you'd to whom you'd care to make a gift of flowers." Generally the bride has some sort of bouquet (to later throw) and the groom has some sort of buttonhole blossom. Everything beyond that is really just icing on the cake. If your florist tries to tell you otherwise, tell your florist that Miss Manners says and that he/she is just trying to pad the bill.
Reply:Some brides include the grandparents as well. I think it's a nice gesture.
Good luck
Reply:We did-
Great Aunt (because my grandmothers are passed), his 5 sisters who are not in the wedding, sister's husband not in the wedding, fathers, mothers and the groomsmen and bridesmaids and of coarse us.
Extra- Church flowers- talk to the church about what you need.
Reply:The fathers should get boutineers as well. Otherwise, I think you've got it covered.
Reply:Fathers of the bride and groom should get boutonnieres.
You may want to give boutonnieres and corsages to the grandparents of the bride and groom.
If you or your groom-to-be have godparents you may want to consider giving them boutonnieres and corsages too.
Reply:the florist knows.
Reply:Your bridesmaids, groomsman, the groom and the bride. Then the parents get one, perhaps the grandparents. Don't worry about anyone else.
As far as decorative flowers, I suggest ditching anything that isn't for your reception tables. Flowers are by far one of the biggest wedding rip offs. They cost a lot of money and die. Depending on your church/ceremony site, you may not need additional decor. BTW, I used ProFlowers.com, and they were great.
Reply:The flower girl needs petals. Get a buttonhole for the ring bearer. And the bridesmaids get bouquets.
Reply:A lot of the time bridesmaids get flowers as well. and any other who are in the wedding party like sisters brothers in laws and so forth you really need to know who is going to be part of the ceremony and what not cause they should have flowers and yes your grandparents should have one as well nieces and nephew don't really need then only if they are old enough to have one or ware one
you should also find pictures of flowers and arrangements that you like so you can show the florist what you would like to have
hope this helps and good luck

Have you used Farmstogo.com?
I just found this site and they have great prices on flowers.
I am doing simple arrangements and my FMIL BFF (lol) took a couple courses on floral design and bridal design. She is going to help for free. Just buy the supplies. So needless to say, I have a great thing, if I can get the flowers I want for great prices.
I just want to know what you thought about them, or if any other wholesale dealers were awesome and you want to share!
Thanks!

I haven't used these suppliers, but I've heard good things about Fresh Roses. (They were recommended in that Bridal Bargains book.)
Reply:Hi. No, sorry, I have not used that particular wholesaler, so I cannot vouch for their service. I have used Rosesource.com, though, (see link below), for my son's wedding. They seem a little higher, but I can vouch for their service and on-time delivery. It's really scary ordering online (for sure!), but they did all arrive and we were extremely happy.

Can you tell this in your own words?
Place a sheet or two of colored tissue paper over the foam. It is thin enough to be pierced by the fruit arranged on sticks and will both cover the foam and provide the tissue paper look of a floral bouquet. If you have some hanging over the edges, this can be "fluffed up" once the fruit arrangement has been made.
Can you tell this in your own words?
Over the foam place 1-2 sheets of colored tissue paper over the foam, this will cover the foam, thin enough to be penetrated by the sticks of fruit and give a wonderful addition to the floral bouquet. Do not worry if you have extra because you can use this after the arrangement is complete to add flavor and details.
Reply:stab the apple with a toothpick, cover the Styrofoam with pretty paper and shove the apple on a toothpick into the foam through the paper. make pretty after.

Can anybody tell me what she want to tell ?
Prepare the arrangement by pokeing the base end of a stick into the florist foam. The tricky part is to achieve the "floral bouquet" look. Try to imagine the fruits going up in a bouquet shape, with a pointed middle piece and with the bulk of the fruits layering out to the sides. Use your original; sketches and designs in this stage, but do not feel you have to follow them, follow your creative instincts first.

The paragraph describes how to make an arrangement that looks like a floral bouquet using florist foam, a stick, and fruit.

What are "Water Jewels" made of?
Has anyone else heard of them? They are sold at craft stores in the same department as floral design supplies, as vase fillers for fresh or silk flower arrangements.
They start out as tiny hard spheres; the clear color variety looks just like the silicone dessicant found in shoe boxes (to keep them dry). When you leave them in water for about 1 hour each one swells up to about marble size and becomes a beautiful clear or colored sparkling orb. Then they are squishy and slippery. Most amusing.
The package is about 2 inches across and contains 200 or so. They come in clear, blue, and green so far but they CAN be colored with food coloring as they expand.
Warm water makes them expand faster.
They shrink back to original size when they dry out in about a week!
Salt destroys them completely.
What the heck are they???
What are "Water Jewels" made of?
I just looked at the package I have. It just refers to product as poly crystals. No where on the packaging does it state what they are made of. It just says it is a non-toxic polymer that absorbs water. I guess that's the best answer we're going to get.

Anybody know where i can find real stargazer lilies in bulk online?
i'm going to be ordering flowers in bulk and having a family friend do my bouquets and arrangements (she's experienced.) i've looked at the sam's club website, they have other kinds of lilies but not stargazers. these are my favorite flowers, and i'd really like to have them for my wedding. are there any other bulk floral websites out there?

Proflowers.com is pretty good but the prices are a little high
Flowerbud.com ditto
Talk to the florists in the area...perhaps they would be willing to sell the you lillies but at a discount since they wouldn't be doing the arrangements. Some of the nice ones might even tell you who their supplier is so you could order directly from them.

How can I make this flower arrangement? HELP?
I was watching a wedding show, and saw a floral arrangment simmilar to this...
http://www.timelessmomentz.com/Floating_...
How do i get floating candles like that?
and do i just use water?
Can I use any type of flower?
Thanks =]
How can I make this flower arrangement? HELP?
You can get floating candles anywhere. Less than $2 a piece. Try google search "Floating candles."
You just use water.
You can't use any kind of flowers. The petals have to be firm. Soft petals won't hold their original shape when they are submerged into the water. The one you see in the picture is called "Mokara Orchid." Either this one, or you can use Dendrobium Orchid (cheaper) or Cymbidium Orchid (expensive).
Don't use silk. They are too soft; besides, they are too buoyant.
Reply:i don't know if that is water or a special oil. i have seen both. you can buy floating candles almost anywhere. you could use whatever type flower you wanted, silk would last a long time.
http://i.ivillage.com/HH/slideshows/Spri...
Reply:I would recommend silk flowers because not all flowers do well submerged in water like that for long periods of time. All you need is the floating candles and the glass votive which are cheap. Any craft store would have them but i would try and find them online.

How do I remove my TeleFloraThomas Kinkade Church from the plastic floral base?
The Church sits atop a plastic base that holds the "foam" that the flowers were stuck in. We haven't been able to remove the Church from the base to replace the batteries and to use it alone since the flowers and greenery died and have been thrown out. To see an example of the type of arrangement it was, you can see the 2007 version at the Telefora website. The person at the 800# couldn't tell me how to do it. Here is a direct link to the TeleFlora arrangement for 2007.

How do I remove my TeleFloraThomas Kinkade Church from the plastic floral base?
If you look at the bottom picture it looks like the base has been removed - unless the base you are talking about is what appears to be snow.
If you are afraid to do this take it to the florist that delivered it and ask them to show you how to remove the base and replace the batteries.
Hope this helps. :)

Reply:Here's how you remove the church:
1. get a sharp knife, lots of old news papers, a small garbage bag, needle nose pliers, a large screwdriver with ice, and a pair for gloves.
First if there is carpet involved or small pets or children you want to play it safe and spread out lots of old news papers. Grab a tall glass from the shelf and fix yourself a tall "screwdriver" with lots of ice.
Next put on the thin rubber gloves (so you will not break a nail or scratch your hands) then take the needle node pliers and carefully remove all the floral arrangement. Put the pieces into the garbage bag.
Third: Get your very sharp knife and carefully cut away the attached Styrofoam around the bottom of the church. Put all the foam into the small garbage bag.
Fourth: Now you should be down to the "nitty gritty" and take a good look under the church for a little trap door. Then remove the old batteries and replace them with new ones. Not just any batteries, get EverReady and you will be all set.
Good luck in your venture!

I need some general ideas please?
Sarah’s Flower Designs is a fledgling, home-based business in Madison, Wisconsin, consisting of three employees. Sarah, the owner, handles all of the floral arrangements. Her assistant, Mark, handles the purchasing of flowers, related materials, and takes telephone and walk-in orders from customers. Mark also keeps the financial and client records in order. Kim is the delivery driver and makes local deliveries to homes and businesses.
Sarah’s Flower Designs is looking to upgrade its computer system (an older model PC) to help keep up with the growing demand of their customers. They would like to house their client information and order histories on their new system, as well as bill their customers electronically. They also want Kim to have a way to keep track of customer addresses and specific delivery instructions while she is on the road. What IT recommendations would you make for Sarah’s Flower Designs?
I need some general ideas please?
I suggest you use a tracking system. Write down everyone actions.
It seem like Mark is a great worker.
Do you have microsoft office or quickbooks?

Please name some flowers that would make a nice wedding bouquet?!?
I'm getting married Nov. 1st and a friend of my fiance's family said as our wedding gift she is going to pay/do all our flowers (yippy)! She has been asking about what flowers do I want in mine and my bridesmaids bouquets. I have no idea?! I know my colors are apple red, silver and white. I was thinking that my bridesmaids have white flowers (since they're dressed in red) and mine be red. Can you please give me some good floral arrangement ideas? Thanks!

Math Combinations/Permutations Question?
A florist has to make a floral arrangement. She has 6 banksias, 5 wattles and 4 waratahs. All the flowers of each kind are different. In how many ways can the florist make a bunch of 10 flowers if she has to use at least 3 of each kind?
I know it has been asked before but the answer given was unclear. Any help appreciated thanks
Math Combinations/Permutations Question?
First 3 positiion = Banksias
So 6 x 5 x 4 = 120
Second 3 Positions = Wattles
5 x 4 x 3 = 60
Third 3 Positions = Waratahs
So 4 x 3 x 2 = 24
120 x 60 x 24 = 172800
There must be 3 banksias, 2 wattles and 1 waratah left to take last position
therefore 6 ways to take last space
So 172800 x 6
= 1036800
Reply:3*3*3*3*3*3*3*3*3*3 = Answer
Reply:for a bunch of 10 flowers ( at least 3 from each kind of A ( 6 ), B ( 5 ). C ( 4 ) ways are = C(4,4)*C(5,3)*C(6,3)
+ C(4,3)*C(5,4)*C(6,3)
+ C(4,3)*C(5,3)*C(6,4)
= 1*10*20 + 4*5*20 + 4*10*15
= 200 + 400 + 600
= 1200 ways
Reply:permutations are an ordered set without repititions. combinations are an unordered set of unique combinations. For example, both 2,3,5 and 3,2,5 are acceptable subsets of a permutation. However, a combination considers these to be the same subset.
In your case, with the flowers, either the question is very simple and the answer is three, or it's very complex and I don't feel like getting into it.
Reply:Basically you need to determine how many combinations per type of flower there are. Then you know you can "combine" those seperate "choices"/combinations together to get your 10 flowers.
So (6 choose 3) = # of ways to arrange those 6 flowers (# of ways to combine them/choose)
Do the same for the other two groups of flowers (5 choose 3) and (4 choose 3).
Finally you need to select 1 flower. We have already choose 9 of the total 15, so 6 are left. So the last flower would be (6 choose 1) which is 6.
So the total number of ways to choose 10 flowers would be:
(6 choose 3) * (5 choose 3) * (4 choose 3) * 6

Half Whiskey Barrel Fell Apart?
I have not used my half whiskey barrell for 2 years. I was told to store it upside down so it would't fall apart. When I picked it up, the whole thing came apart. I want to put it back together, but it keeps coming apart afer a few boards are put back in. Does anyone know how to fix this. Do I need to soak the boards before I try this to get them to swell up. Any help would be appreciated.
When my Dad died I was given a floral arrangement in this barrel, so it is special and I would really like to save it if possible. Any help would be deep appreciated.
Half Whiskey Barrel Fell Apart?
u mite need to soak the boards to get them to expand and then when soaked up enough try to put them bk together once it back to normal and the floral arrangement is in keep the wood soaked or wet it stops the boards drying out which will make the boards fall apart again. cant remember wot the opposite of expand was.
Reply:If you do get the barrell together you should put wire or a strip of metal around the barrell to hold it together so it won't come apart again.

What grabs your attention when ordering flowers, color,design, what?
Ive ask that question because I am a florist and this shop has experience growth this past year.
We want to stand out in the floral industry. We offer already other free services that other shops dont offer. Such as pictures of their arrangement or gifts sent to their emails , so they can enjoy the gifts as well. This has really made a difference with our customers. Some of our customers have said they stop ordering online because they were recieving products that just wasnt what they ordered.
What grabs your attention when ordering flowers, color,design, what?
My main thing when ordering flowers is the color selection. I like deep, rich colors like pumpkin orange, chocolate brown, blood red, etc. Like fall colors, mostly.
Reply:i look for something more interesting than just flowers. a decorative vase that can be used again. maybe river rocks and twigs that can be saved after the flowers die. beautiful ribbons and bows. oh--and i hate those generic business card size greetings that come on the arangement. people will spend $50 for a nice arangement, and then they cheap out on the card! i wish there were classier choices in this area.
i really enjoy progressive, trendy looks, almost a japanese style, a feeling or emotion should be conveyed through flower arangements.

Reply:i look for something more interesting than just flowers. a decorative vase that can be used again. maybe river rocks and twigs that can be saved after the flowers die. beautiful ribbons and bows. oh--and i hate those generic business card size greetings that come on the arangement. people will spend $50 for a nice arangement, and then they cheap out on the card! i wish there were classier choices in this area.
i really enjoy progressive, trendy looks, almost a japanese style, a feeling or emotion should be conveyed through flower arangements.
Would a libra like an Edible Creation?
lol I always get my sisters their birthday gifts early or at least start thinking about them early on, so I'll have enough money to spend. Well, I always got my older sis (who is a libra) clothes and she seems to never think they are good enough. Last year I got her a beautiful 18K gold star charm bracelet that was over 300 dollars. Still she was not fully satisfied. So...this year I am just going to get her something different. An edible creation is an edible fruit arrangement that looks like a floral arrangement. What do you think?
Would a libra like an Edible Creation?
I am a Libra and I would love it if someone gave me an edible, decorative (at least until I eat it) and beautiful gift like that.
It sounds like you've put a lot of thought into your sister and if she doesn't like this she won't like anything!
It's a beautiful idea and so very thoughtful of you! You sound like a really sweet person.
Reply:I'm also a Libra and it sounds great to me.
Is it possible that you intimidate her and she uses her nonchalance about your gifts to get back at you? When people are always rude it is either because they don't know any better or its about Power.
Reply:moral: never buy expensive gifts for ungrateful siblings. lol im a libra and if you were to buy me an edible gift, the best gift would be... chocolate! yum lol. all the librans i know(my sister, my aunty, me, etc...) are obsessed with chocolate. were chocoholics!!! yum... might raid the fridge for some chocolate now... lol!
Reply:Well, your sister sounds really rude for rejecting your gift like that. I mean, who would do that? Anyway, what I would do is not get her anything. But that's just me.
Reply:I'm a Libra, and I would love people giving me presents with sincerity, its the thoughts that counts for a Libra, really..

Helpppppppppp?
A florist has to make a floral arrangement. She has 6 banksias, 5 wattles and 4 waratahs. All the flowers of each kind are different. In how many ways can the florist make a bunch of 10 flowers if she has to use at least 3 of each kind?
Helpppppppppp?
Call the flowers 6A, 5B, 4C. All the flowers of each kind are different =%26gt; each combination of them is unique.
So Pascal's coefficient gives the formula for choosing m objects from a collection of n unique objects:
C(n,m) = n!/(n-m)!m!
Number of ways to make a bunch of 10 flowers if she has to use at least 3 of each kind?

I would like some assistance please?
Ok, so, there is this girl i really really REALLY like! but she goes to college 5 states away! :( And i tried bringing up the whole "what are we?" question, but i didnt get a clear answer (i dont think she tried to make it cloudy) and i didnt want to press it. Now she has asked me to go to her family's for thanksgiving. I already said yes, but should i like bring a floral arrangement for her mom or something? and how can a i casualy bring up the "what are we?" question without seeming like a creepy naggy guy? Im so confused! please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would like some assistance please?
I think the floral arrangement is a must for her mom.
There must be something for the girl as well but not as good as for her mom.
Don't mention "what are we" topic.
She invited you to her home and it means something.
Time will show.
Reply:Five states? Hope you live in New England and not out West!! What are you...you are five states away is what you are...enough said...
Reply:I think it would be nice to bring a flower arrangement for her mother, or a bottle of wine (depending on how old you are and if they are wine drinkers or not). Nothing too fancy or too costly, however.
If you want my opinion, I think you should just enjoy the time together. The more good times she has being with you (no pressure, etc.) the more things will go in your favor, if you know what I mean. Wait until a time when it is just the two of you to bring up the question again. If it isn't an answer that you are going to like, how awkward, for one, if you bring up during the middle of a Thanksgiving get-together. I think you will know when the time is right to bring up the question again. I think it is a good sign that she invited you to dinner though! Good luck!
Reply:Look this is what you do...Bring her mom the flowers, and when you go and talk to her this is what you say, tell her that you really like her and you would like to know where you stand in her life, to know if she looks at you as a friend or more...
Reply:Just do it..in what ever way you know how. You will eat yourself up forever if you hold it in. I know it is hard and you feel out of place. This is what life is about. Maybe you can ask her hat she thinks of you and then you can tell her what you think of her. Good luck and be blessed.
Reply:well just bring some desserts over like apple pie or something.the flower thing sounds nice too.but i'm pretty sure she won't mind you asking again.so just have the guts to ask her!you can't waste your life asking "why?" live your life!
Reply:Flowers are a nice idea, but don't go overboard.
Tell her you may seem dense, but you're not sure enough of yourself to know what she meant when she wrote back.
Gotta tell you, getting invited to Thanksgiving dinner is a step in the right direction. Be on your best behavior, they'll all have something to say to her about you.
Good luck.

What we're looking at on Yahoo isn't what you're looking at, Lisa, so we can't give you measurements that are accurate.
But this may help you figure it out.
Picas and points are measurements--like inches, yards and miles are measurements, but smaller. There are 6 picas in every inch or 72 points in an inch. So for question #5 (I'll take the easy one first), measure the width of your line of text --(let's say it's 2 inches) then multiply by 6 to get the number of picas (2 x 6 = 12 picas). In question 5, answer B would be exactly 3 inches in length and D would be about 4 1/3". I'll let you work out the other two.
Question 6 is easy: look at your sample paragraph. If the words all line up down the right side of the page, but zigzag down the left edge, it's A. Answer B is the opposite: words line up on left side of the page, but don't on the right.
If they don't line up on either side, go with answer C and if they line up evenly on both sides, the paragraph is fully justified (D).
No one can give you a definite answer for Questions 3 and 4 because only you can see the actual type in your question. But here's a suggestion for Question 3: in MS Word or another word processing program, choose a font like Ariel with a type size of 10. Type in and print out your paragraph and see how it matches up. Does the font look similar? If not, try another, such as Times New Roman.
When you get a font that looks like the one in your sample, print it out and compare it to your sample. Adjust the size until you get it to match exactly (if you're lucky!). Then look to see what point size that is. A 12 point Ariel is much larger visually than a 12 point Times, so to make this work, you need to find the exact font and size. It's important to print it out each time because computer monitors distort sizes.
Or, you can buy a points ruler which will help you measure the height of the letters (point size) and the leading (the distance from the bottom of of the type on line 1 down to the bottom of line 2. 1/4" = 25 points and 1/8"=12.5 points, but it is very difficult to measure with a standard ruler.
If the lines of type are touching the lines below and above, the answer to question 4 will be the same as # 3. But usually type is set with at least 2 points of extra space (leading) between the lines.
Even if we were seeing the exact font you see, our monitors all are set slightly differently, so what looks like 12 point Times Roman on your monitor would look an entirely different size on another person's.
You can also take your sample to the office of a printer or newspaper and they can tell you the answers to questions 3 and 4.
Hope that has helped!
