thinking pink

by Sharon Santoni

At this time of year, I don’t really have any flowers in the garden to use indoors, but there is enough blossom and buds to complement a few spring blooms that I can buy locally.

I am enjoying unstructured bouquets at the moment; stems of different heights shared between various vases and bottles, rather than a tight and more formal bouquet.

Here I used white hedgerow blossom, catkins, and flowering prunus and matched them with a few hyacinth, pink tulips and a couple of gerbera.

Making a little go a long way …..

How glorious these flowers are & the arrangements you make are a gift to my eyes & soul as well as pain free. Everything is blooming here in Arizona but the down side is my allergies are making life miserable. Sinus headaches are not fun. I’ve never had allergies before I moved here.

So pretty, Sharon. I love what you’ve done with one of my favorite color combos – pink and spring greens. You can’t help but be happy looking at them! XOXO

Bonsoir,

Je reviens peu à peu… après mes longues semaines d’absence… Je n’ai pas repris tout à fait mes marques. Mais je suis heureuse aujourd’hui d’entrouvrir à nouveau la porte de votre joli blog.
Gros bisous

A collection of small vases or bottles is great for making the most of a few blooms. Beautifully put together Sharon.

These are beautiful, Sharon. I never seem to tire of pink. 🙂 We’re so ready for spring here, but winter is determined to hang on as long as possible. Hope you have a great day!
