Hello my little darlings who still read my long lost blog. I took a little break to create this little beauty:
My little Stella baby. Yup, call me mommy.
I have had my hand in a few flower adventures during my year long break, but not a whole lot. I have missed it terribly and I am dying to get my hands on a few more weddings for the summer.
One of the things I have missed most about having a wedding every weekend is always having fresh flowers on my table. Last Spring I was asked to do the bouquets for the Wedding Showcase Fashion Show. This was a dream come true, because I got to pick all the flowers and just go to town and do whatever I wanted. One of my favorite flowers that you don't see very often are Hellebores. These dainty little girls have the most beautiful speckled petals and curvy little celery green stems.
I ordered 1 bunch of them to go in a bouquet. The night before the show when I received my order, my little friends the Hellebores were nowhere to be found. I was totally disappointed. My supplier felt so bad that they hadn't arrived on time, that they actually had the whole shipment forwarded to me at the show. With NO CHARGE. In the middle of a long day at a bridal show I got a special delivery and I did NOT share it. Actually I think I did give a couple of bunches away but I saved the other 30 for my little old kitchen table. I spent an approximate total of 2 whole days of my life just looking at these flowers and taking pictures of my favorite ones and watching them bloom. I am sure I had more important things to do that I was choosing to ignore. Oh what a wonderful day.
Anyway. The point is my break is over and I am back!!
