Thankful for Friends~

There is nothing like the smell inside a florist shop, mid-winter!

Alaina & I took a trip to Kittelberger Florist today.

A very sweet friend was helping me out of a pickle...

Walking through their studio~construction zone was amazing!

I love to watch designers put flower arrangements together~

A gorgeous painting coming together quickly... artfully... 

~Gracefully~

I'm working on a project that requires pressed flowers...

I have gathered & pressed from our gardens~

But it is February.

No snow! No flowers either.

I called my friend and she pulled a box of lovely together for me!

A HUGE box of a little wilted, a little past peak etc. 

We got home...

Tossed everything down and began pressing!

I filled book after book...

Pressed blossom after blossom...

I ran out of pages!

Alaina rescued some of the extras~

She has collected some darling vases...

Once they were full she started filling her paint water jars...

Kittelberger is filled to the rafters with treasures~

Household/kitchen... Vera... toiletries... home decor...

Bridal... Paper products... jewelry... so much more!

Fine gifts~ from the sweetest of families!

Stoneware crocks, jugs... bean pots are weighing down

my old books filled with beautiful blossoms.

Our home smells so pretty~

The cats are curious!

Hope you have a beautiful weekend, Friends!
