If you didn't already love me, you will now.
You see, I visited our local Chapters and came across a nice little table with a "Books for Mom for Mother's Day" sign above it. "I'm a Mom," I said to myself (I may have said this out loud, one can't be sure when one is home alone a lot) "and I deserve a gift." But then, I always think that and that is exactly why I always get into so much trouble!
The object of my desire: The Flower Recipe Book.
Oh Alethea Harampolis and Jill Rizzo: you are goddesses, goddesses I tell you! You have either just saved me from taking a flower arranging course or have driven me into the arms of a florist!
In case you are wondering, the book is a good sturdy hardcover.
You turn a page and on the left, your flower arrangement "recipe":
And on the right, what it looks like in real life.
Below the recipe, the how-to's and other helpful information.
Oh this is goodness personified in flowers. I can't wait now till lupin weather!
And peonies...
Well frankly, I can't wait until any flower blooms around here!
There are recipes for every kind of flower you can imagine. For someone like me, who adores flowers, it is a helpful way to learn to arrange them more artfully!
The other day, I shared a picture of the white tulips on my dining room table - today I will share another vase of white tulips that are on the windowsill in my bedroom. They are completely open now, which is the way I love them best!
How about you? Do you have extraordinary flower arranging powers or are you like me, ready to learn this lovely art?
Either way, I am sure you will love this book and the hints and ideas contained therein!
Have a delightful Thursday and stay safe out there!
