It's Mother's Day, and for those of you that are working in a floral shop, you probably couldn't be happier! I hope everyone had a very successful spring holiday season! I didn't work in a shop this Mother's Day, but I'm sure it was a doozy! I've seen delivery trucks everywhere!
I'm spending this Mother's Day with, of course, my amazing mama! Sadly, this lovely Oregon weather is keeping us from doing our Mother's Day tradition. Most everyone has little traditions they do around holidays, and if you don't, I highly reccomend it! I love holiday traditions and it just doesn't feel like a holiday without them.

Our Mother's Day tradition is to plant all our pots that go on our patio. I've been doing this with my mom and my Grandma ever since I remember. It is a great memory I have of my Grandma. She is where I got my love of flowers and I wish she could see me now! Luckily my mom and I planned ahead and planted some pots on the one nice day we had this week. A full pot of beautiful flowers outside will lift your mood just like a bouquet on your table!

Of course I also had to make my mom a Mother's day arrangement! I got inspiration from our tradition and decided to go with a garden themed arrangement. I wanted to do my own spin on the garden theme with a tiered look. This is how it turned out!
I hope you all enjoyed my Mother's Day blog, and I hope all the mothers, grandmothers, mothers to be have a flower filled, happy Mother's Day!
Hundreds of dewdrops to greet the dawn,
Hundreds of bees in the purple clover,
Hundreds of butterflies on the lawn,
But only one mother the wide world over.
