Feeling Creative.....
IMG_4295 (450 x 600).jpgIMG_4297.jpg
I guess that I've been in a creative mood. It might be because I've had the TV on HGTV a lot lately!! Anyway, when I went to Kansas City a couple of weeks ago I bought some silk flowers to make a bouquet for my bathroom. I had found a metal thing to hang on the wall (I have another one like it with another bouquet in it). I spray painted the metal thing and arranged my flowers in it today. I'm really, really pleased with it!! I think that it's inspired me to do some changing in my bathroom.......hmmmmm.....I'm going to have to look for some pictures now!! IMG_4300 (450 x 600).jpgIMG_4303.jpg I also made another arrangement yesterday. I really hadn't planned this one but I found a really cute pottery vase and Alco had their flowers for 40% off so I found some things and put them together. I put it on the other side of the room from my painted wall to add some color there. The flowers were on bunches and I just stuck them in together then I cut up the red stringy thing and put them in in smaller bunches to get them evenly in the arrangement. Again, I'm really pleased with how it turned out.

You should be Diana...you did an amazing job. I'm not good at that sort of thing, but you have definitely got an eye and the talent to put it together.

Diana those are absolutely gorgeous! You are one talented lady! I love all of them espicially the third pic.. that one is my favorite!! I was at the peddlers mall with my Mom on Monday and got a really good deal on three vases. If you don't mind I am going to post a pic and you give me some ideas on colors to use. You should open your own florist Girlfriend you did a fabulous job

Paula, on the vases with the hummingbird, I think that I'd either make my main flowers pink or blue with accents of the other color and a white or cream. Then I'd pick out something to fill in that's green. Look around a place like Hobby Lobby and just start putting some things together. I might point out that the vases all have a very small neck so it's going to be limited on what you can put in it.
A lot of florist shops will put arrangements in your vases for you and they ususally do a good job and they'll make them in the colors that you want.
