Good Blooms

With the first day of spring just around the corner, it's time to start thinking flowers!

I always say, the day I win one hundred million dollars the first thing I am doing is scheduling weekly flower deliveries to my home. There is honestly NOTHING better than a bunch of fresh blooms to brighten up a room. 

At the risk of being the most basic bitch at the ball, peony season is my jam. But I have other favorites as well. Here they are in no particular order:

Peony - Duh! Every shade is perfection
Hydrangea - Give me all colors

Ranunculus - Blush pink (The peony's step sister)

Roses - White only for this gal

Calla Lillies - White only again


Now that you have a great big bundle of your favorite blooms, you need a home for it and I'm not talking your run of the mill, clear gift-with-purchase vase.
Give the arrangement some character with an out of the box, conversation piece (those gold hands kill me)!

Turn a cookie jar, or mason jar into your vase. Try a blue and white ginger jar that you might already have displayed on a shelf, or an old burned out candle that came in a beautiful glass jar.
The options are endless here!

Above I've rounded up some of my favorites above!

Pro Tip: Take a flower arranging class with some girlfriends. Its a fun Saturday activity and there REALLY is a difference between a novice and master when it comes to floral placement!

Happy Decorating!
