This week’s bloomers…

Yesterday I had  the pleasure of creating some bokays for a special friend’s art exhibit. Check out the artwork of Kelly Wilkerson at Blue Bossa Prints here. Despite all the rain this week, I had plenty of flowers to choose from. The big question was which ones should I  use. The Belinda’s Dream roses paired with the Stargazer lilies won my heart and filled the vases quite nicely.

Take a look at my options for vases this week…

Love giving gifts from the garden!


Hope things are blooming in your world this week… whether it is in the form of actual flowers or beautiful snow that they are having in my friend Elspeth’s world in Australia!

Do you have a favorite flower you like to see in arrangements?

  1. Loved your floral artistry for your friend’s art exhibition! We woke this morning to a Winter Wonderland of frost, bright sunshine and a brilliant blue sky!

  2. Hard to believe we have opposite weather. Actually, we are having weather unlike any we have ever had before. Yesterday was 4″ of rain. There is flooding in our region but so far not for us. Enjoy your frosty enchantment!
