a book about flowers

happy sunday! i hope you each were able to do something this weekend that was restorative to both your mind and body.

this past week felt exceptionally long. in speaking with both coworkers and friends, this seems to have been a shared experience for many of us. something that makes my time spent at home a bit brighter are fresh flowers. i typically get myself a bouquet every 10-14 days. a few months back, my friend carolynn came to visit and sent me the sweetest hostess gift in the mail afterwards…

mystery of growth – a book about flowers

i was immediately obsessed with this vase. i hadn’t seen anything like it and have used it at least a dozen times when wanting to arrange smaller bouquets in my home. after asking her to send me the link (with this blog post in mind), i saw it came in a variety of colors (clear, red, blue) but love that she gifted me one that goes best with the furniture/color scheme of my apartment. it is the perfect hostess gift, especially with the holiday season coming up.

you can find it on amazon and it is an absolute steal!

matilda’s bloombox

fridays are for florals and we all could certainly use a little something to brighten our days. 2020 was quite gloomy and the start to 2021 has been a whirlwind. that being said, there have been some bright spots. one of them has been my friend amy’s pregnancy. during the pandemic, i noticed she got really into flower arrangement. with her being pregnant, i wanted to send her something to celebrate while also allowing her to be creative without having to leave home.

say hello to matilda’s bloombox!

matilda’s bloombox is a phenomenal small business that ships farm fresh flowers from local growers to your doorstep. you get to arrange them and they offer tips and videos to help you along (if needed). while i bought a bloombox as a gift, there is also a subscription option.

if you are looking for a way to flex your creative muscles and add some beauty to your home, this is the perfect way to do so.
