Grandiflora (from Lynden) had the "Best in Show" in my humble opinion.......I loved, LOVED, LOVED the colors! I don't know, maybe it's because I too have felt "Sun deprived" But I am SO all over their LOOK!
A bit "Granny Chic" a bit of Whimsey, a bit of Flora, fantastic Photo Images ,,,,,Toss in the Vintage touches and Voila'! Grandiflora!
They ROCK!!
Are you Kidding ME? Okay, SO? If this little Vignette is NOT a "Flea Market Finds" or Romantic Country Cover,,,,I simply don't know what IS! Too Stinkin' cute!
Someone said, " I belonged in the Grandiflora Booth" because of my colors.....I can't say there is a place I'd rather BE! (Me and Trish..........happy to be here!)

Where DO you get the energy for all this, Shell?! Thanks for the sweet "hate mail" . . . love YOU too!!! Believe it was moi who tagged you for a photo in Grandiflora's GRAND booth . . . a match made in heaven, eh?! Gotta love those girls (still awaiting my *adoption*, Trish!)!! ;oD
ReplyDeleteThink I'm gonna throw you off track and just throw some junk on a table next time (yeah, right!!!!). xo D.
Shell,
ReplyDeleteThis looks wonderful. I want to live in Snohomish but I don't know how to pronounce it so I can't...is it like Snow-ho-mish so Snow-mish? It is about the cutest little crafty town and very hip...kind of like Little Portland, in my imagination. Woo-hoo. What a fair,for a start, I want one of those flower vases with beautiful flowers and then I am moving there and finding myself a little Mary Engelbreit cottage. I think she must "summer" there, huh?
Sending a hug and a sunny little bus on the cheek,
Suz from St. Paul
