Fresh Flowers

Morning, lovelies! Happy Wednesday to you all! Hope you are all enjoying the holiday week. It almost feels like the week between Christmas and New Years because everyone is off, things are quite, and the only people who seem to be in the city are spring breakers.

Speaking of spring break, one of my most favorite parts about this season is finally getting to see the gorgeous bunches of blooms at my local market. For weeks now I've been meaning to pick some up but it was either the wrong time or place. Whatever the case I'm desperate to get some in my home to liven things up a bit. We've been bombarded with April showers this month so since there's a lack of sunshine, I need to brighten up my home in other ways.

Enjoy the day! xoxo

I just put a bouquet of tulips in my vase on my kitchen table! Puts me in the best mood... Even on these dreary days we've been having!

Gabriella {sensiblyluxe} said...

One of the few things I neglected to do yesterday was buy fresh flowers. I suppose I shall wait till this Sunday's Farmers Market. I've been looking forward to going every single week this past month or so because of the flower selection.

Me too... I need to get some flowers in my home. It has been dark and rainy. My trees have buds but have yet to bloom. Can't wait... we have the prettiest white pear trees lining the drive. xo

I've been meaning to pick up flowers as well, but yes, timing isn't right, i'm going somewhere and I don't want to carry them around. etc etc. But during spring, especially during these April Showers I need some floral in my life.

Happy day to you ~ thank you for the lovely flowers! I have taken the remainder of the week of for Holy Week and will fill the house with flowers for Easter. I can't wait to have the lovely fragrance herald in Spring. Here's to hoping!

I love Holy Week. It is hard to think about what Jesus went through but it is important. Then comes EASTER! That is my very favorite holiday...So fresh, clean and NEW!

I love flowers! If I could I would have fresh ones sitting on the dining table every week. They just make everything lovely!

Sarah Klassen said...

Sounds perfect! There is nothing like flowers to bring a space to life, is there? Right now we have beautiful yellow daffodils in urns by the kitchen french doors, and it's so lovely to wake up to -- especially in the morning pre-coffee :)

Chauncey said...

Her hair is beautiful. You have such lovely delicate posts. I really like the softness of your blog.
