Flowers

Flowers, ahhh, I love flowers just about as much as I love music. Flowers just make me smile, they are gorgeous. My grandmother loved flowers too. Except she loved the artificial kind, and she wanted them in every square inch of her home, and she made that happen! My only problem with this is I have allergies, bad allergies. So I can't have a house full of them like I want. And I'd probably just kill them anyway. Maybe I water too much? I'm not sure, but I just thought I'd share a few of my favorite flowers with you.

 Fabric Rosettes-- They count right?


Lilac cuttings off of my Mother-in-Law's lilac bush, gorgeous!
 
 
 
 
My poor little flowers at our apartment in Hawaii, they died soon after.
 
 



And finally, my wedding bouquet & lei.

 
Isn't it interesting how we use flowers to commemorate special occasions? Weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, any special day, we use flowers to feel special. 
 
What are some of your favorite special occasion flowers?

  1. I absolutely adore Peonies first and calla lilies second. Those lilacs are absolutely adorable and what kind of flowers were in your lei? I want to have fresh flowers around more but peonies are expensive especially in the city. I have never been much of a flower gardener but when I go back to Florida I think I may grow a peony bush.
