Tea Roses in Double Pink

Saw pink roses in the farmars market on Monday morning. One of those things that are just too hard to pass up, ain't it?

Until next time,

Purple-y Pleasure

Hydrangias are in season, blooming everywhere in town.

They don't live very long in vase, but I had to add the seasonal touch to our house entrance.

Until next time,

Out, Way Out

Hubby says thinking outside the box is one way to become better at something. With which I agree very much. So here it is, my latest creation.

And with the remaining stalks, I made this for the living room...

...and an autumn center piece for the dining table.

Until next time,

Red Is In!

Got a lovely bunch of red, pink and creamy white. Have been enjoying versions of them by using different vases.

1st day in. The petals are young and the fullness of the whole was much to be appreciated, so the arrangement looked something like this.

4th day. Since the white stocks have died, I decided to separate the rest and enjoy them in two ways.

I've been getting better at prolonging the lives of the flowers I buy, thanks to the vitalizer that's very user-friendly and cheap enough to arrange a 5-dollar bouquet.

Until next time,

Purple for Autumn

Flowers for the entrance at the moment. 

Don't know the names. I wish they had a name tag on the individual buckets they're put in at the store, so I can learn them.

Until next time,

Pre-Halloween Excitement

Found orange lilies at the store and thought they were perfect for the month of October, and tried to deck the entrance with Halloween spirit.

The orange paper bag that my mom-in-law's last year Christmas gift came in added a very nice trick-or-treat-bag effect, don't you think?

The problem is, the flowers won't last till Halloween. And neither will the candies.

Until next time,
