I hope everyone had their fill of turkey and all the trimmings on Thursday and now everyone is ready for the exciting month of December, decking the halls with fresh and local greens and trees. Nothing speaks more than having a local and natural holiday season. Yes, the decorations don’t last as long, but either does a flower bouquet. At the end, they can all be composted and not filling up the landfill with plastics and more.
My pots and urns are filled with boughs cut from the farm, mixed with red and yellow twigs, adding some dried hydrangea, tying on dried white and red gomphrena flowers, some honesty seed pods and there you go. Beautiful. My gifts are wrapped in paper bags and festooned with dried flower posies…what could be more beautiful.
Since the gardens are all sleeping, and the bulbs are doing what they do without my help, I am going to give you a break from my posts until things at Flowers at Lottarock start rock’n. I will still be happy to do dried flowers bouquets for you, posies for gift adornment, or being creative for you, but since we will all be busy, I will take a bit of time off from doing the blog posts, but in mid January, I will be back. Promise.
That being said, if you do need my florals, contact me at flowersatlottarock@gmail.com. I more than likely will not be checking the website like I should. Bad me. But hey, everyone needs a vacation from a website.
I leave you with pics of an arrangement I did for a thanksgiving table last week. Enjoy.
All grown or harvested here at the farm. To me it reads the end of the season beauty.
Until next year my flower people. Have a safe and fabulous filled December, I will be back in January. Promise.
I dream of flowers, do you? Until next time, Allie
