From the Garden

It’s that time of year when we can begin harvesting inspiration and blooms from our own garden!

Seasonal Beauties

Inspiration certainly isn’t hard to come by this time of year.  Seasonal blooms abound, making our job that much more enjoyable.  Not only does the floral selection broaden, but there is greater opportunity to procure products from the US as opposed to international markets.

These classic beauties were plucked from the laden bushes in my very own front garden.  Containers of peonies grace just about every level plane in our house at the moment! I nestled these into a corner on the desktop in the office.  If I must be cooped up inside with paperwork and wedding details on a beautiful day like today, the task seems easier with these cheery flowers in the corner of my eye.

And yes, that is a bright green painting of a chipmunk and I love it. It was proudly purchased at an Artists for Humanity open house.
