Spring Floral Arrangment

Just as I shared in my last post (shamefully from last fall), I was admiring the beautiful spring wildflowers that grow on the side of the road I drive everyday. Purples, yellows, whites dotting the edge of the road.




I decided to take few minutes the other afternoon and gather a big bunch and make a bouquet. All free and they are doing quite well. Day three and still beautiful. And like I said in my last post, not only does it feel good to get out and pick flowers to enjoy, but you might just inspire someone else to do the same!

May Baskets

I receive Martha Stewart's Craft For the Day email everyday. Today's idea was so great I wanted to share it with you.

I have heard of May Day, but didn't actually know what it was all about. I did some research and found out that it is May 1st every year. It is not really celebrated in the United States as it is in other countries. I also read that it began as more of a pagan holiday and was frowned upon by puritans. The May Day celebration included the ribbons around the May Pole and hanging baskets of flowers on doors of friends and neighbors.

Whether you choose to celebrate "May Day", or just surprise a nice neighbor, shut-in, friend, or family member with a beautiful fragrant springtime surprise, you can click here: May Baskets ...and read all about Martha Stewart's Craft of the Day with lots of wonderful ideas for sharing your spring blooms and brightening someone's day today, or just anytime really.

Wouldn't it be fun to do this for someone?!
