A fresh start to blogging after a long pause....

Well it has been quite some time since I put up a blog and today is the day I just felt it was time to come back to the social media circle/circus - not that I am expecting anyone to take notice of any of my musings but rather a place to just think out loud - after all isn't that what a lot of bloggers do?

So I will just potter about adding bits along the way that take my fancy - a kind of log of 2016 which has had a busy start already and I cannot believe how quickly January has moved on and the days of February are slipping by and with it the summer season.

Just a hint of Autumn coming in the garden - some of the trees around are beginning to colour as the days start to shorten.  I am always on the lookout as I drive around for good foraged foliage for any of my floral arrangements - have to be careful to watch the road - my kids think I am a terrible driver because of it!  So far I haven't hit anything - fingers crossed.

Excitement ahead with a wedding in the family in March so I have constant plans going around in my brain - mostly about flowers - are other people as obsessed as I seem to be about how to put flowers together.   I have had a lovely time today with my daughter checking out local flower growers and working out what types of flowers we might like to play with. So far we have a kind of white and green theme.... Roses, freesias, hydrangeas if they are still around, dahlias, lilies, alstroemerias, lisianthus, magnolia greenery, jasmine, viburnums, may, gladioli  and on and on it goes. So many gorgeous blooms to choose from.  Decisions to be made but oh how lovely to be playing with flowers again for a wedding.

Next post, once I can work out again how to add photos, I will revisit some weddings where I have done the flowers. Till then to you and to self, take care and have fun xx
