I finally got the flowers I picked yesterday in their vases. My flower arranging is each flower has its own vase, though I am branching a bit and sometimes putting several of the same flower in the same vase.

I line the flowers along the window sill by the bed, which is where I also ‘sit,’ leaning against a pile of pillows for my back, while I work on my laptop

I saw a magazine picture of a cluster of tulips, each in its own vase, and it inspired me to try it with different flowers. I hadn’t felt like I had the flowers to make big bouquets. Also, when I have each flower by itself, I seem to be able to appreciate them more.

Lately, I have been shuffling the vases around, rearranging them to find flowers that look good together. This lets me see combinations that are blooming at the same time. I am planning to move these plants around in the gardens (any day now 😉 to have them in the same place, blooming together…

The flower gallery also inspires me to take way too many pictures of them.
