Easter Flowers

 

 

 

 

 

 

Easter is a special occasion that symbolizes rebirth, forgiveness, new beginnings and a fresh spiritual outlook, and is a time to be with family. Every year my Mom would buy my daughter a beautiful Easter Sunday dress for our church service and family gathering – this made my daughter feel so special and loved and it became “their” holiday. The loving presence of my Mom will be with us this Easter as we gain a clearer view of who we are as God’s perfect beloved sons and daughters.

For the Easter bouquets I chose peony double tulips – there are two small white flowers nestled beneath a larger pink peony tulip making these flowers very unique and delicate. I also used beautiful bright yellow daffodils, a small sweet yellow and green flower (if you are familiar with it and know what it is called please let me know!), and a white violet. Peony’s symbolize honor and compassion – this is fitting since this site is a way for me to honor my Mom and our relationship and she was always thinking of others. Daffodils represent rebirth and new beginnings, a perfect fit for Easter Sunday.

I love to gift bouquets so others can bring the beauty of flowers into their spaces. This week, one bouquet is for a long time friend from my middle school/high school days, another is for my younger brother and his fiancé, and the last bouquet is for our dining room table for Easter Sunday. The flowers were staged around the family lake home – in the sunroom, living room, and on my Mom’s wooden dresser.

I pray that your Easter Sunday is filled with love, family, and celebration. This is a time to give gratitude and see the beauty that surrounds us each and every moment.
