Hi, all! Here I am again with more Christmas decorations. This time the view is from inside my house. This post is a little all over the place but, that is how I am feeling this Christmas season. I am enjoying all sorts of things like Christmas concerts and Christmas cookie decorating. Generally spending time wit…
Hi, there! I hope all is well with you as we are quickly entering December 2021. You know how when you tell yourself that you are going to get something accomplished by a certain date and you don't, how exasperated you are with yourself? Well, that is how I feel about my Christmas decorating. I told myself it…
Hey there! I hope you don't mind but, I am going to re-post a Thanksgiving tablescape I did a few years ago. I really loved this one and wanted to show it to you anew, especially to those of you who did not see it the first time :).
Hey, all! Welcome to the "Autumn On a Tray Blog Tour". Thank you to Katherine at Katherine's Corner for hosting and for inviting me to join in. I am so excited and happy to be sharing my autumn tray décor with all of you today!
Hi! How are you all doing? I am enjoying yet another nice fall day here in my area of the world. I have an exciting blog post coming out at the end of this week but for today, I am looking forward to Christmas and sharing an easy tutorial with you.
Hey, everyone! How's it going? We are having an especially nice fall here in Massachusetts. Lots of sun and warm days. Can't beat that! Even with the warm weather it is time to be fully decorated for fall and also to enjoy the joys of the season. I would like to share some of both with you today.
Hi guys. Today I wanted to share a beautiful color palette from a wedding I did in August with you. Unlike other weddings I have shared, not all of the photos are from the wedding itself. I am finding it harder and harder to deliver these flowers, do all that is involved AND take photos of the event itself. So, in…
Hey there! I have to apologize for being absent from my blog for these past few weeks. Life has been at a rapid pace and mixed in there my husband got very sick (not COVID) a few weeks ago. Thankfully, he is fully recovered. All of this has thrown my blogging and truthfully life rhythm off but, I am hoping to get…
Today I am sharing the continued wedding story of Erin and Pat from last month which took place on Cape Cod at the Wychmere Harbor Club in Harwich. I meant to carryon with the story weeks ago but, summer "things" must have gotten in the way 😀. Also, I usually like to wait until the professional photos ha…
Hi there! How are you all doing? This has been a tough flower growing season for me... mainly because I have been invaded by bunnies! They are as cute as can be and they seem to be VERY comfortable with my presence in the garden but, they are eating all of my flowers!! I am devastated! I had grown zinnias and Mexi…
Hey, there! It has been a while since I have been in touch. So much has been going on here in my little world. I am preparing for a very large wedding in early July where I will be doing the flowers and that has been taking much of my attention. Also, with three married children and eight grandchildren there is al…
Hi all! I haven't been blogging as consistently lately as I would like. There have been reasons, however. I caught a bad cold, my newly widowed sisters-in-law came to Massachusetts for a visit and finally, and most importantly, I was asked to make the wrist corsages for my granddaughter and her friends for the…
I want to preface this whole post by saying that I really do not know what I am doing or talking about. I am simply sharing my experience with a garden craze that I am arriving late to. I have always been a flower gardener not a vegetable gardener. It seemed easier to me to go to the grocery store and buy what I wa…
I was thinking recently about Mother's Day and what I might offer in the way of arrangements to my customers in my local community this year. As I thought about it, I remembered some fun puppy arrangements I made a few years ago for my grandson's first birthday party and one I made for my daughter for Valentin…
Hi all! Last week I told you about cleaning and sprucing up my "she" shed. To my surprise and delight that post actually got featured on Thursday Favorite Things this week. Very exciting! Thank you Amber for the shout out. In that post I explained that the cleaned up shed had inspired me to be floral…
Welcome! I hope you have been experiencing wonderful weather in your neck-of-the-woods like we have been here in New England. It's been beautiful, especially considering it is March. March can be brutal here at times so, I am taking in every day that I can. Today, I am going to share with you an outdoor Easter…
Hey there! I have a last-minute offering for you! I am offering another February PMU Arrangement for next week. I will be delivering on Thursday, February 25th and Friday, February 26th. I am not sure exactly what the arrangement will look like. I am going to let what is available at the flower market and my imagi…
Hi there! I had decided this year that I was not going to decorate for Valentine's Day. Every year it seems like I have just taken down Christmas and winter decorations when it is time for Valentine's Day. The Valentine season is just too short to decorate my house for.
Hey, all! I am happy to tell you some exciting news coming from Mitchell & Company Designs and Events. Not only are we offering a February Pick Me Up Arrangement, we are also offering a Valentine's Day Basket too! Both will be offered at the same time and delivered on February 12th or 13th, just in time for …
Hey there! How are you? Are you getting through winter ok? The weather here in Massachusetts has been pretty good so far. Of course, a 2' snowstorm could creep up on us at any moment but, so far, so good! This week I have been working on creating a Valentine's Day offering for my Pick-Me-Up Arrangement in…
Wow it is January 14th already! Time does fly even in the winter! I think I have removed pretty much all of the Christmas red from my home by now and slowly I am creating a cleansing palette of white for winter decorating. I have to say I am happy with the uncluttered look that happens after the holidays.
Hi, Everyone. I am having a hard time after the holidays getting engaged. The end of 2020 turned out to be even more difficult for my husband and me than the beginning of the pandemic. In the span of three months my husband lost a brother and two of his brothers-in-law. In fact, his brother-in-law, Bob, who along …
