Flowers for Mother's Day


Today was such a nice day, the sun was finally shinning, so I went flower shopping. 
Nothing better to get you in a good mood than to be around beautiful flowers.

While I was at one our local farmer's market I came across the cutest moss purse.
Oh I just had to use them for my centerpiece for the Mother's Day brunch I am hosting for my family on Sunday.


I am almost finished, I think I will add a pretty bow. 
Didn't it turn out cute.

I also picked out projects for the kids to make for the Grandmas.


They embellished a print on canvas with some flowers.



Adorable flower pins sealed with a kiss inside the locket.



I think these will look great on the table. 

I also had a little time to visit my friend Sally and I found lots of new treasures I will share with you on another day.

The rest of my day was spent in my gardens weeding.  It feels so good to be getting some gardening done.  I am hoping the weather will be good for the weekend so we can be outside for awhile.


I am joining Debra from Common Ground for Vintage Inspiration Friday.



Cindy from My Romantic Home for Show and Tell Friday.


Courtney from French Country Cottage for Feathered Nest Friday.


Liz from Rose Vignettest for Fresh Cut Friday.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend
and
Happy Mother's Day!

    Alaina,

    I love the moss handbag and you did a wonderful job filling it! It will make a beautiful centerpiece.
    I've been to the nursery twice. I hope to get everything planted and beds weeded tomorrow.

    Your Friend,
