flowery

when spring time comes, there is not much i love more than picking flowers off the wake campus or having flowers in our home...it really brightens everything up for me! after a long search for wheat grass--thank you minglewood flowers...i was able to do this arrangement that was shown in flower magazine's spring issue (check out the link to flower magazine on the left.) it was so fun gathering the supplies for this arrangement (thanks wake forest university grounds management for supplying all flowers but the gerber daisies.) it was even more fun to make it for sweet cole's baby shower! i was really encouraged that i can do a flower arrangement--this was simple and the 'ingredients' were easy (-wheat grass) to find.







*the arrangement was sitting on floral foil during the shower so that the roots were showing. i don't want you to think i displayed it in the plastic container!
**please look at flowermagazine for the best version of this arrangement along with other fun flower ideas (its a great resource for entertaining, showers, weddings, and everyday)

And here is a sneak peek of some shower pictures to come...

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps. Proverbs 16:9
