Flower's, Flower's, Flower's....

...and more flower's.

This past Sunday,

I got to make some fun, little flower arrangements 

for a very lovely engagement party.

Mason jars

 Green button mums

White {stunning} spider mums

 White and yellow daisies 

{the bride's favorite}

and some verigated Pittosporum.

I showed up to the house

and found my very own work space 

all set up and ready for me.

Yes, 

 I was in heaven.

The arrangements were

so simple, 

so fun,

and so absolutely perfect for the evening.

It was a beautiful night.

I am in Love

Today, I spent the day laying in bed feeling icky.

Sick in the summer?  

Really?

 Seriously?

Lame.

So I did what any other girl would do, 

sat in bed on my computer looking at pretty things.

Hoping that it would somehow make me feel better.

And if you know me, you know I love flowers (duh) 

and that I have a special place in my heart 

for weddings and design.

Today I stumbled across quite a gem and it's needless to say that I fell deeply, madly in love.

What a beautiful, summer inspired shoot.

Filled with everything that I love, and then some.

Ranunculus, strawberry flowers, oh my!

I'm smitten with EVERYTHING about this bouquet. 

I'm drooling over the black Dahlia's and white Astilbe.

I love old books.

Loving the vases.

My only thought is to maybe mix in some blackberries,

which would tie in nicely with the black dahlia's.

I love everything about this.

The flowers, the colors, the photography, the outdoors....

Gah, if only I was planning a wedding!

If you want to view the rest of the shoot...check it out here!

Well, that icky feeling is beginning to grab hold again.

Time to sleep. 

At least I know I'm going to be having sweet,sweet dreams.
