PlantTherapy: YOUR Saturday Morning Flowers

Carnations to match the tiger!

So last week I received e-mails from all over from those who also were enjoying cut flowers around the home, and will definitely share them with AT readers. This morning's are from Kristin from Cambridge, MA. Last week she got married and the ceremony was in their apartment!

I'm sending a shout-out to all of you who bring home flowers to brighten up your home. Do YOU have some Sat. morning flowers to share? Let me know! You can drop me a line and some pics at matt@apartmenttherapy.com For all Saturday Morning Flowers, click here!

In Kristin's words:

"We ordered three fancy-shmancy cachepots from Winston Flowers in Chestnut Hill, asking for a few orange lilies and a mix of other greens, oranges, and white. I also went to Wilson Farms in Lexington to pick up some miscellaneous bouquets to add to the mix. I arranged them very informally in all of the clear containers I had, from vases to pitchers to Pom Tea glasses. It all looked wonderful together--coordinated but not fussy--and allowed us to incorporate our beloved but not aesthetically perfect houseplants."

A close-up of the bridal bouquet - I think I see those orange lilies

What a beautiful memory to have of your home, and a great way for the rest of us to start the weekend. Kristin also passed along this Flickr link of the apartment in the quiet before family and jubilation took over. Congratulations and thanks for sharing!

Too bad I couldn't read the whole summary for this posting on the main page because the Flor ad was covering it.

Thank you! I love carnations in the right place... hot pink ones in a turquoise vase. Poor maligned carnations
