I'm still feeling inspired by the lovely flowers in my home. I mean who wouldn't be?
These cheerful bright red tulips make my dining room look alive again....
These fuchsia peonies look fake they are so flawless.
Even the mini pink roses I bought at Trader Joe's look happy in my front room.
I never buy myself flowers, I have a terrible tendency to kill all the living plants I receive in a matter of days. I'm sad to say these pretty's have all faded and wilted away (with the exception of the mini pink roses which are still on life support). But they certainly look gorgeous for the day or two I have them healthy..... Maybe that's why I'm prone to buying botanical prints for my home? I can have the look of flowers without the risk of killing them....
Thanks for the compliments on my photography on my last post! I have always wanted to be great at photography and I feel I am getting a little better with my shots. Speaking of great photography... have you seen this girl's photos on flickr? I am in LOVE with her eye for detail and use of color.
I love the botanical prints in the pictures I've seen of your home and have meant to email and ask you about them...do you find them at specialty shops or on the internet or how do you find them? I love the size of them. I LOVE the pictures of your home, it really looks lovely. Do you do it all yourself? Love your blog too!

Hi Sara,
Absolutely beautiful tulips. I bought two dozen pink and green roses for myself today. I've got them all over the house. It's so wonderful to feel a touch of summer just when winter is approaching. I hope all is well with you!
