It’s Friday! Yep, that means this week it is Field Trip Friday To A Rose Garden & Peony Farm. I can hardly wait to share this field trip with you!! I had a terrific time in Oregon. I loved the green rolling hills, the fresh fruits and veggies, and this rose garden and peony farm. I think you will have as much fun as I did.
Okay, so let’s get this field trip going…
Mother’s Day will be here before we know it. Do you have any Mother’s Day Ideas yet? I thought I would share a few ideas I have today:
Above you will see a moss candle holder, a moss candle and a moss vase all made with Dollar Tree items. The total cost was $2. Moss works for anyone’s taste or style. These will be a big hit.
What Mom could resist a French Silk Pie from scratch? Rich, creamy and delicious.
What about a bowl full of succulents as a gift? Succulents will grow anywhere. Perfect for those of us who even have a black thumb.
Make your own designed vase or frame for your mom. I used FolkArt glass paints for each of these projects. Easy to use and be your own artist.
Visit your local floral market and design a lovely bouquet. Then place it in a mason jar tied with twine. Easy and super cute.
Using twine wrap a monogram or paint and stencil one. These are a great idea for anyone.
I have had fun sharing my Mother’s Day gift ideas with you today. I hope I have inspired you to make something special for the Mom(s) in your life.
Thanks for following and for joining me everyday! You are awesome.

On Thursday, my cute friend Barbara and I ventured to the Floral Market. From that visit I thought I would share my visit to the floral market with a few floral tips. Barbara is hosting an outdoor bridal shower today and wanted fresh flowers for her tablescapes and centerpieces. I can never resist a visit to the floral market and Spring blossoms, so off we went!

A tip for floral market newbies: You will be walking into a refrigerator. A refrigerator so cold you will need a coat. Really, you will. It is c-o-l-d where the flowers are stored. As we walked in, these lovely roses caught our eye.
I can hardly wait to share them with you!
