Flowers of the Week: 8.1.11

Happy first day of August darlings!  So sorry for only one post on Thursday, and no post on Friday last week...it has been a whirlwind around here with my family coming in on Wednesday, and getting ready for the Fizz & Frills event this coming weekend in San Francisco.  I am going to be there with lots of goodness, as are lots of other fabulous vendors, so I sure do hope that you stop by and say 'HI'!!!!  If you haven't purchased your tickets yet,you can do so right HERE ;-)))

I do have to tell you that I am OVER THE MOON about all the time with my family!  Goodness, my niece and nephew are soooo darling.  I didn't think it was possible to love them any more than I already did...but I do - BIG TIME!!!  And why is it that babies just smell so darn good?  Golly I could sniff my niece and nephew all day long.

Okay, I know...wedding  blog and 'Flowers of the Week' ;-)  And I have some fabulous ones for you today.  Have a look-see at this loveliness...

Lovely, no?  I L-O-V-E the fern frond and flower at each place...just the kind of detail that sends me over the moon.  Plus, I think you all know how I feel about ferns ;-)

This week I am booked solid with family activities - Monterey Bay Aquarium and Gilroy Gardens to name two, and work, and getting ready for the Fizz and Frills event that I will try my hardest to post every day...but I can't promise it. 

I can promise a FABULOUS guest post from Chris at Postcards and Pretties that you won't want to miss on Wednesday though!  So be sure to stop by...and I promise that life and LCW will be back to normal after next week ;-)  Wishing you all a wonderful week!  Mwah.

Flowerwild February: Day 8

So far most of my picks for Flowerwild February have been loose and unstructured arrangements and bouquets.  However, I am loving this bouquet that has some structure to it...

It's the darling dahlia, in one of my fave colors, that I am loving so much.  Oh, and the tight wrapped stems too.  Me likey, a lot!
