My Last Few Weeks In Flowers!

Well what can I say, I've developed a bit of a habit! I must say, I'm not the biggest fan of sunflowers now after having to arrange them. They have strange spikey stalks. 




 These flowers were in my mums house when I was down over the mothers day period! I don't know where she buys her flowers but they seem to last forever. Which is good because she's a notorious plant killer! 
 Unfortunately my mum doesn't know how to arrange flowers very well. She usually just pokes them in a vase, so when i get home i spend time cutting, rearranging and feeding them. 


I absolutely loved the bouquet below because it had such an array of colours that shouldnt work together but worked perfectly in a vintage jug we use every christmas for custard lol.




Lots of love Claire xo

I bought some coral colored tulips yesterday and what a difference they've made to our apartment! I love sunflowers because I'm from the sunflower state, but I understand why you hate them now!!
