Flower Saturday

I love playing with flowers. Channelling my inner florist is something that is both relaxing and creatively fulfilling. I did the flowers for my besties wedding last year and ever since, I get excited any chance I get to do a little arranging. Today we had both a birthday party and a dinner to attend so I had two reasons to head down to wholesale flowers and grab some bulk blooms.

With a little fall in the air I was ecstatic when I found these beautiful warm colored roses. I also bought hydrangeas, dahlias and Star of Bethlehem. I really prefer sturdier flowers. The dahlias were a little flimsy for my liking and I am always afraid of bruising the hydrangeas, but I think they are so pretty I get them almost every time. I kind of like just heading in there without a vision, picking what I like, and seeing what comes of it. Such a fun and relaxing way to start the weekend.
