Weekend Flowers: Tulips and Alley Ways

I have a hard time going to the farmer's market and not buying flowers. I only spent $10 and got a bunch of peach and white ranunculus, tulips and eucalyptus. Then I took my puppy for a walk through the alleys in our neighborhood and gathered some jasmine vines and other greens.

Weekend Flowers: Roses and Milk Glass

On Friday night I worked this performance for my "day job" job. The conductor and soloist both received bouquets of flowers following the concert. Sometimes if I'm lucky the musicians don't want to travel with their flowers and I get to take them home. Such was the case this weekend and I had fun rearranging the bouquets into the new milk glass collection I started. One of the bouquets came from Whole Foods and were supposedly locally grown. I typically like to work exclusively with flowers from locals farms and growers but re-purposing someone else's flowers feels less like cheating.

Also, a sample bouquet and centerpiece for a possible client.
