My Blog

My modern cottage isn't decorated following the latest trends, but is a joy filled layering of generations and traditions.

Simple to arrange by cutting the ends of the sunflowers to the desired lengths. I added in the eucalyptus sprigs that were included, then filled the space with the baby's breath. Before filling with water, I added the floral preservative packets to each vase. Fill with water, set in place, and give it a final look.

I like to use natural elements as well as pieces of vintage crochet work. I use these elements in each of the vignettes in my main living area. I start each arrangement with a base layer, then add floral elements, accent pieces, and a twinkle of light.

Many of our modern homes feature an open floor plan in which the kitchen island is the hub of the home.
