    Flowers on Friday: Oldie but a Goodie


    Since we are moving we have temporarily postponed Flowers on Friday. There's really not much of a point of bringing flowers into the house. It's half filled with boxes and frankly there is stuff everywhere. Truth be told, I always thought that we were living very minimally, I guess you don't really know what you have until you take it all off shelves and scatter it around your living room. Geez . . . . . haha
    So here's an oldie but a goodie. This is a bouquet of orchids Lee bought me a couple of years ago, I took a photo of it because I'd never seen orchids in a bouquet (in hindsight I could have left out the baby's breath).
    I can't remember what these flowers were for, but judging by the size and estimated cost, I would guess it was either an anniversary or Lee was in trouble and they are apology flowers. For the life of me I can't remember which.

    Hope you have a great weekend and we'll be back on Monday with Library Inspiration!

      Ha! Love the orchids...don't usually see them in a bouquet. I guess after 22 years of marriage I should be thrilled that I get an occassional bouquet "just because". Oooh...cannot wait to see the library inspiration! Might have to steal some of your ideas.

      Like the term 'apology flowers'. Very funny!
      White jugs display flowers beautifully.
      Good luck packing.

      Very pretty! I don't envy you moving, but I know you will be rewarded for all your hard work when you are sitting pretty in your new house!
