Lovin' Pink Peonies!

For me, JUNE = PEONIES!!

Love all of the colours, the fragrant scent and the delicate nature of this short-lived beauty every June! I created this bundle of clay peonies for a former wedding client who is giving this as an end of the school year gift...to one of her classroom volunteers! What a thoughtful gesture as most of the gift-giving seems to be for the teachers! (Except we really like our crossing-guards, so we treat them to coffee).

This floral arrangement contains three shades of pink peonies, all in different stages of bloom. Accented with chartreuse and white hydrangeas and a splash of greenery, I like the proportion as it peeks out of the lime green mercury-glass looking cylinder container.

Haven't blogged much lately, but hey, summer is here (and some summer wedding flowers that I will be showcasing). Enjoy!

Daisy Arrangement

SO thrilled with how this 'early spring' arrangement turned out! Daisies, tuberose buds, peonies, roses and hydrangeas - they're all there in this square vase arrangement!

I tried several graduated colours of clay on a few flowers and I am very pleased with the colour combination (such fresh and clean huses) and texures of the flowers used. I have been arranging blossoms that I have made over the past couple of weeks and there are LOTS to choose from on this worktable. I listed this one into my Etsy shop - take a peek!

I have also found a new source for containers - I can hardly wait to fill them with lots of clay flowers - what is your fave colour combination these days?
