Here's the Dirt..."How I Spent My Spring Break"

While the families were at play

on Spring Break...

I decided to rework some areas

in the shop. Orange is one of my

favorite colors and I love to use it

as an accent color in designing and

in floral arrangements. Thanks to

Virginia Petitte for making the fun

orange banner using various patterns

of orange fabrics. I love the clean

look the pop of orange adds to the

mainly black and white room.

These are just too cute not to share...

Here is just a sampling of the 250 "Bugs"

students from Normal Park School in

Chattanooga, TN created this past

The bugs will be used with the decorations for next

Here's the Dirt..."It's hip to be square..."

I love these square baskets

filled with simple flowers.

I used green "Hypernicum" berries,

salmon "Quince", "Geraldine Roses",

"Trick" and "Mood Moss" to create these

wonderful mini arrangements.

The natural baskets

come in a 4x4, 5x5 and a 6x6 square size

and are available in three colors...neat!
