Around here, it’s no secret that flowers are kind of a problem for me … especially the fresh ones. I love them. Obsess over them. Buy them and things that remind me of them … a lot. Neighbors know me all too well,
and once spring hits and the cherry blossoms pop, it can be hard to control myself. Some of those same neighbors and friends may have even contemplated installing surveillance cameras just to make sure their
peonies stay right there in the flowerbeds where they belong and not in one of my vases!
May is a great time to turn to Mother Nature during the celebrations of spring weddings and Mother’s Day. If fresh flowers are not your forte, look for inspiration with a floral pattern, floral scent or even a floral named product. I’m sure you have a lot to say to the women in your life, whether it’s your mom, sister, best friend or wife … so why not say it with flowers?
