Blue Hydrangeas


I love hydrangeas especially blue since its my favourite colour, add a little vera wang and a pb design to really ad some chicness to it. Check out the canvas for the full effect.

Babys breath-simple, wild and elegant on its own



As seen on Design Mom

Babys breath.... sigh. This cutsy little flower I have to admit has grown on me. Not as a filler flowers mixed with carnations or roses, but something all by itself. When I picture babys breath I think of me 4 years old as a flower girl for my uncles wedding with curly tendrils and babys breath throughout my hair and bouquet. So I thought, is there anything out there that has babys breath on its own, and there was. Here's the canvas (you can find the links to my sources here as well and you may want to adjust your volume as there is music with it)...

Baby's breath would look breathtaking for your "country chic" wedding, perhaps in an old galvanized watering can for your garden wedding, as an accent in white for your "add your colour here" plus white wedding, your winter wedding or the good ol'fashioned white wedding.
And the best part of babys breath is it's an inexpensive flower.

Babys breath floral care & handling tip... if you want the buds to be more open fill your sink with very warm water, cut a bit of the ends of the stems, then put the ends of the stems underwater so that they can drink, you will see some of the buds open up, give it a little tap, after a few minutes place them back into a vase.
