I have this goal.. I want to be the flower lady. When people think of me, I want them to think of the flowers. When people gather together for my funeral someday, I want them to bring up how flowers make them think of me. I want to be associated with flowers. I just truly adore flowers. Years ago I had a pretty impactful, personal moment happen to me while I was among some flowers and…I don’t know. The flowers changed me in a really special way. Thats why my flower gardens are so magical to me. Thats why I became a florist. I feel like I owe a lot of my happiness, motivation and energy to the flowers.

But beyond that, I want to be the person who doesn’t just have pretty flowers, I want to be the person who gives beautiful flowers.

Thats been a little mission of mine since becoming a florist. Every once in a while, maybe for intentional reasons, and maybe just because, I want to deliver flowers to neighbors, to friends, to whoever I feel may benefit from a little gift of flowers.

These were some I put together this week for some special women in my life.

The colors, the smells, the textures and the feel are some of my favorite in these. Do you see those little peonies? (the pink, ball-like flowers in the top two) I’m really obsessed. It was so fun to process, arrange and the best part, deliver. Yay for flowers!!
