Colorful Feast!




This girl tasted a fig for the very first time last week!
 A sweet friend of ours shared some freshly cut figs with me and I absolutely loved them. Not only they taste great and are really good for you but they also look super cute, they are like small pears but inside that salmon, coral like color is amazing. 
I can't believe I got to be this old and NEVER tasted one before!!!
All that to say that this first time fig tasting discovery inspired my creativity to play with some fun colors, I wanted to try to use flowers I had never worked with before like Safflowers, Scabiosa Pods, Godetias and Veronica's. It's always fun creating floral arrangements with a splash of color. At the end, after I took the pictures and was going through them I realized that I always go heavy on the greenery... I don't really intent to do so when I start but as I go I always end up using lots of greenery, I just love it... I guess I have to learn to make floral arrangements that only have flowers to add to the variety but for this time I went big with green. I guess you like what you like 😉 
I'm always learning and experimenting and as I go I think I'm defining more and more what my style is... and greenery in my floral arrangements is a must 😁

Rehearsal Dinner

This week was a busy one for me! It is exhausting but so rewarding!! Flowers make people happy and they always bring a smile to their faces... to hear people comment on my work and saying how beautiful it looks just makes my heart smile big and keeps me going!
I pray all the bridal party and guests were pleased and enjoyed these center pieces as they gathered to reminisced the groom and bride's beginnings and journey. 
I love to follow Brigitte Girling from Moss & Stone Floral Designs  because I love her style and all what she creates. In one of her posts, she shared that her goal as she creates floral arrangements is to 'emulate nature' and I felt challenged to do the same thing. Relying and getting inspired from all what my Creator has made is just beautiful and more than enough! what better than getting inspired from the One and only true artist, the One that designed and created the exact same flowers I'm working with!! 
I made 10 floral arrangements for the guests tables and I feel that they turned out simply sweet and beautiful. Thank you, Lord!!
